Flames vs Blue Jackets prediction

Flames vs Blue Jackets best bet: Rasmus Andersson Over 0.5 assists (+150)

Rasmus Andersson is having a solid campaign for the struggling Calgary Flames, scoring nine times and tallying 19 assists, sitting second on the team in helpers behind only Nazem Kadri

The Swede had an assist in Saturday’s 2-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins. That was actually his first helper in 10 games, but there’s reason to believe he could make it two straight this evening in Columbus. 

Andersson has registered 11 of his helpers on the road this season in 24 outings. He also set up a goal earlier this season against the Blue Jackets. Andersson is typically a consistent playmaker, and it’s only a matter of time until he finds a rhythm again.
