Columbus Blue Jackets vs Calgary Flames Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/05/25

Scoring goals has been a difficult tasks for the Calgary Flames so far in 2025. Calgary ranks dead-last in the NHL with 2.14 goals per game through 14 games to open the new campaign. No player is particularly close to averaging a point per game, as Nazem Kadri leads the Flames with 10 points on 3 goals and 7 assists. The power play has also been struggling, rankings 29th in the league with a 13.5 conversion rate. Calgary is at the bottom of the Western Conference standings with a record of 3-9-2, and 2 of their 3 wins have come by a single goal. All in all, this is a hard Flames team to trust right now.

On the other side, the Blue Jackets enter this contest with a 7-5-0 record on the 2025 season thus far. They are coming off a 3-2 loss to the Islanders, but won 4 straight games prior to that defeat on Sunday. Columbus is a team on the rise, and is playing great hockey right now. They’ve struggled on the penalty kill, but that weakness may not be as costly when going up against a Calgary team that just hasn’t been able to score on a consistent basis. Playing on the road, consider a small play on the Blue Jackets ML in this one.
