Winnipeg Jets vs Calgary Flames 8/4/20 - NHL Picks & Predictions

Calgary looked horrible in the second game of the series and ended up allowing Winnipeg to control the game. That normally would not be a problem, but the Flames managed to get 2 goals in the second period and then allowed the Jets to come back and take the lead yet again which helped to seal the win.

The Jets managed to pose a lot of issues for the Flames defensively as the Jets had 3 individual players score their goals. The Jets, also seen 2 assist from Roslovic and a goal and an assist from Lowry. The Flames ended up getting their goals from Lindholm and Bennet. When it came to assist the Flames got an assist from Hanifin and Lucic.

Connor Hellebuyck was the goalie the Jets relied on in the game. Hellebuyck faced 30 shots and turned away 28 of them. Hellebuyck managed to get 22 equal strength saves, 2 power play saves, and 4 shorthanded saves.

Cam Talbot is the goalie who minded the net for the Flames. Talbot ended up facing 26 shots in the game. Talbot had a total of 23 saves. 17 of those saves were equal strength saves, 2 were power play saves, but 4 of them were shorthanded saves.

    The game here will most likely have the backup goalies in the net, but it will really be a difference to see how well the players do here. The Flames have a good backup and the Jets have not really been that good with the backup goalie and that will definitely make it harder for the Jets to bring home the win in the game here, even with the players able to get the puck around better to confuse the Flames defense. Final Score Prediction, Calgary Flames win 3-2.
