The Calgary Flames continue a lengthy six-game road trip tonight when they visit the Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center.<\/p>\n

Both clubs have been skating in high-scoring games of late, and I\u2019m predicting more fireworks in my Flames vs. Ducks predictions and NHL picks<\/a> for Saturday, April 4.<\/p>\n

Flames vs Ducks prediction
\nFlames vs Ducks best bet: Over 6.5 (-115)<\/p>\n

Defense has not been the strong suit for either team this season, with the Anaheim Ducks<\/a> ranking 30th in goals against per game (3.50) and the Calgary Flames<\/a> sitting 24th (3.16).<\/p>\n

Anaheim enters Saturday on a four-game losing skid, allowing 4+ goals in each of those games. The Ducks\u2019 last three games have cashed the Over and featured at least seven total goals.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Flames have hit the Over in three straight as well, with each of those contests featuring 9+ total tallies.<\/p>\n

Anaheim has cashed the Over in 59% of its games this season \u2014\u00a0the highest rate in the NHL.<\/p>\n

Yan Kuznetsov<\/a> has developed into an important piece on the Flames’ blueline during his first full NHL season, logging just over 20 minutes per matchup.<\/p>\n

The 6-foot-4 defenseman has eclipsed 1.5 blocked shots in 11 of his last 14 games. The Ducks average 30.4 shots per contest\u2014 third-most in the NHL \u2014 so Kuznetsov should see plenty of rubber coming his way.<\/p>\n

\"Chris<\/p>\n

After writing a few pieces for the Varsity newspaper during his time at the University of Toronto, Chris Faria’s career in sports truly began in 2019 when he attended the sports journalism program at Centennial College. Since then, he\u2019s covered virtually every sport under the sun, having written for several different outlets including Covers and the Canadian Olympic Committee.\u00a0A lifelong hockey fan and player, Chris currently works full-time for the National Hockey League.<\/p>\n

Outside of hockey, he\u2019s also an avid poker player and mixed martial arts fan, which is coincidentally his favorite sport to bet on \u2013 usually in the form of a parlay on bet365. The main lesson he\u2019s learned from years of betting is bankroll management: “Never bet more than you\u2019re comfortable losing and never chase your losses.”<\/p>\n
