Stephen Nover's NHL Thursday Totals Crusher
(NHL) Calgary vs. Winnipeg,
Total: 5.50 | 115.00 Over
Result: Loss
Calgary can finally get a five-year bad taste out of its mouth. All the Flames have to do is beat the shorthanded Jets today since they lead their best-of-five series 2-1. The Flames haven't eliminated a playoff opponent since 2015. So years of pent-up frustration could occur with the Flames producing six goals like they did in their 6-2 victory on Tuesday in the previous game.
Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck was tremendous during the regular season. But he was not sharp on Tuesday. So now his reliability comes into question especially with Calgary's top two lines playing well. 
It's a plus if the Jets get back some of their injured offensive stars. I'm not counting on that happening, though. But I do believe the underdog Jets will play this game aggressively and open their play up.
