The Anaheim Ducks continue their Alberta stay as they visit the Calgary Flames on Friday, Nov. 6. This marks the third encounter between these teams this season after the two sides split games in October.
My Ducks vs. Flames prediction expects plenty of goals. A streaking Ducks team that's been performing well on the road will get things done for the second straight night with the help of the league's most underrated assist man in Jackson LaCombe.
Let's dive into my NHL picks for this Pacific Division affair.
Ducks vs Flames prediction: Ducks moneyline
The Anaheim Ducks are fresh off a win over the division-leading Edmonton Oilers and are notable underdogs. They're an impressive 6-3-0 on the road this season and have scored five-plus goals in six consecutive games.
Although the Calgary Flames are 6-3-1 in their last 10, they rank 29th in shot share (46.81%) and 28th in expected goals share (44.16%) during that span. They're 29th in the latter this season.
Dustin Wolf is 2-0-1 in his last three starts, but he still sports the sixth-worst goals-saved above expected (-5.5).
The Ducks are the play too in our NHL moneyline picks for today.

Ducks vs Flames combo
Jackson LaCombe has been flying under the radar among offensive defensemen, racking up an assist in eight consecutive games. He's third among defensemen with 17 helpers in 16 contests. LaCombe is also fourth in the NHL in average ice time (26:57), and he's logged 12 assists during his current streak.
Lacombe isn't the only player in this game churning out assists recently though.
Matt Coronato, despite a goal-scorer's reputation, has racked up a jaw-dropping 11 assists over an active six-game streak at home. He tallied four points in his last game at the Saddledome and faces a Ducks team allowing 3.81 goals per game.
Coronato is also featured in our NHL best bets today.

TOP PICK
Ducks vs Flames player prop: Jackson LaCombe 1+ assists
LaCombe has more assists than any Flames player has points this season.
He's logged a helper in 14 of 16 games and in eight of nine on the road. Only Connor McDavid has registered an assist during a higher rate of games than the Minnesota native.
The 25-year-old has put up 27 assists in his last 30 road games. He's up against a Flames team that ranks 24th in goals allowed and takes the seventh-most penalties leaguewide.
LaCombe and Anaheim's second-ranked power-play unit are poised to do some serious damage tonight.
COVERS INTEL: LaCombe has notched an assist in 12 of his last 13 games away from the Honda Center and in 80% of road games since last Jan. 1. That rate that trails only Evan Bouchard among defensemen and ranks fifth among all skaters.Ducks vs Flames goal scorer: Cutter Gauthier
Cutter Gauthier has scored an astounding nine goals in his last four games, including back-to-back hat tricks. He leads Anaheim with 11 goals this season after securing the first 40-goal campaign of his young career a season ago.
Calgary allows 3.44 goals per game and has been penalty-prone early this season. Fortunately for Gauthier and Co., the Ducks' power play is operating at 36.2%, and nine of his 11 goals have come with the man advantage.
