Will the Flames achieve their first success under Daryl Sutter?

Details:

While this duel has been rare in recent years due to different divisions, the two will meet for the third time this year.

Both teams were able to win once each and a typical 50:50 duel awaits us on Thursday. The Flames, in particular, are already under pressure, as their change of coach has not yet had the desired effect.

Under the new old head coach Daryl Sutter they lost their first two games and so the gap to the playoff places is growing steadily. For them, this game against a direct competitor who is already four points ahead is almost a do-or-die game.

In this respect, we expect a Flames team fighting down to the last drop of sweat. It's difficult to say whether that's enough for success, but the chances are definitely better than a few weeks ago, which is why our prediction for Calgary vs. Montréal is a victory for the Flames.

The game begins on Friday night at 3:00 am in Calgary.
