Calgary had won two straight before losing 4-1 to Tampa Bay on Thursday even though the Flames outshot the Lightning 40-24. Both probable starting goalies are subpar seasons although Jacob Markstrom has been somewhat better with a 3.06 goals-against average and a 6-4-2 record. Sergei Bobrovsky is 4-4-1 with a 3.46 GAA and .895 save percentage and he allowed four goals in a 6-4 loss to Dallas on Thursday. The Flames are 14-4 their past 18 Saturday games and they have won six of their past eight after losing by at least three goals. Calgary has won eight of the past 11 meetings and the Panthers have lost five of their past seven against the Western Conference. Take the Flames.
