Calgary Flames vs Vegas Golden Knights Moneyline Prediction
- Moneyline Pick: Vegas Golden Knights
The Golden Knights are looking to deliver a bounce-back performance following their 2-1 defeat to the New Jersey Devils last time out. That overtime loss was disappointing, but at least they managed to extend their point streak to eight games (W6, OT2).
The Flames, on the other hand, are coming off a 4-2 victory over the Seattle Kraken. The team needed that win after suffering a 6-3 loss to the San Jose Sharks, although they remain wildly inconsistent.

Their recent record shows that, as Calgary have gone W3, L2 over their last five outings while alternating between wins and losses.
It’s hard to see the Flames getting past the Golden Knights, though. Despite playing at home, Calgary are a side that have been atrocious offensively, ranking dead last in the league in power play (14 percent) and fourth-worst in goals scored per encounter (2.54).
They won’t have enough firepower to threaten the Golden Knights.
Calgary Flames vs Vegas Golden Knights Player Prop
- Prop Bet: Jack Eichel over 0.5 points
Jack Eichel is currently questionable to play due to an illness, a problem that forced him to leave Tuesday’s practice early and that prevented him from suiting up in Wednesday’s 2-1 loss to the New Jersey Devils.
However, Eichel is expected to be available on Saturday, and his presence should give the Golden Knights a massive boost on offence
Eichel was on a five-game, nine-point streak before missing Wednesday’s contest. Considering how dominant he’s been this season, averaging 1.32 points per fixture, he looks like a solid bet to crack the scoresheet as long as he’s cleared to return.
Calgary Flames vs Vegas Golden Knights Same Game Parlay
- SGP: Over 4.5 goals + Jack Eichel over 0.5 assists + Nazem Kadri over 0.5 assists
Our three-leg parlay is built around a high-scoring matchup, along with two of the league’s top playmakers going toe-to-toe and finding a way to crack the scoresheet.
The over 4.5 goals market looks completely attainable, as it has landed in four of the Flames’ last five outings, as well as in four of the Golden Knights’ previous five.
Even though Eichel is questionable to play due to an illness, the star playmaker is expected to be available, and he should be a good bet to get at least one point.
JACK EICHEL 😱
How about this set play at the end of @Energizer overtime!? pic.twitter.com/JWG2RwhvTM
— NHL (@NHL) December 8, 2025
He’s one of the best forwards in the NHL and leads the Golden Knights in points with 41 (12 goals, 29 assists). He’s also riding a five-game point streak, during which he’s accumulated nine points.
Kadri can also be included in a similar tier to Eichel, as the star centre has been the Flames’ best player by a wide margin. He’s coming off a two-point performance in the 4-2 win over the Kraken on December 18 and has recorded points in five of his last six appearances. He’s tallied 23 assists and 31 points overall this season.

The Golden Knights are waiting to see if Eichel will be available, as the star centre is dealing with an illness, but all signs point to him playing in this matchup. His absence would be a massive blow to the team’s offence, as he’s one of the best playmakers in the NHL.
