San Jose can be counted on for offense. The Sharks have scored three or more goals in 12 of their last 15 games. The OVER is 12-5-2 in San Jose's last 19 games. Calgary is giving up an average of 3.7 goals a game in its last four games. Defense remains a serious problem for the Sharks. They rank 30th in goals allowed and 29th in shots on net. The Flames are not a high-scoring team, but they should open up against the defensively challenged Sharks, who have allowed three or more goals in 15 of their last 20 games. This is also San Jose's third road game in five days. The Flames are playing for only the second time in the last six days. The Sharks won, 6-3, against the Flames when the teams last met on Dec. 16 in San Jose. Take the OVER.
