Flames vs Blue Jackets prediction

Flames vs Blue Jackets best bet: Rasmus Andersson Over 0.5 assists (+150)

Rasmus Andersson is having a solid campaign for the struggling Calgary Flames, scoring nine times and tallying 19 assists, sitting second on the team in helpers behind only Nazem Kadri.

The Swede had an assist in Saturday’s 2-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins. That was actually his first helper in 10 games, but there’s reason to believe he could make it two straight this evening in Columbus.

Andersson has registered 11 of his helpers on the road this season in 24 outings. He also set up a goal earlier this season against the Blue Jackets. Andersson is typically a consistent playmaker, and it’s only a matter of time until he finds a rhythm again.

Matt Coronato scored the winner on Saturday against the Penguins, his 12th goal of the campaign. Coronato has five of his goals on the road, and while he didn’t score against Columbus earlier in the season, he was busy, tallying an assist.
