ESPN will host Wednesday’s game between the Edmonton Oilers and Calgary Flames in game 2 of the second round of the 2022 Stanley Cup Playoffs with faceoff at 10:40 p.m. ET. The game will take place at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta.
Game 1 was…something else. It was a throwback to the mid-1980s when goals were coming fast and guys were already ready to drop the gloves. It was a fierce battle that saw Edmonton bounce back from a four-goal second-period deficit before Calgary took control of the game on Matthew Tkachuk’s second goal of the game to give the Flames an 8-6 lead.
Tkachuk would add a goal into an empty net and get a hat trick for the game. Blake Coleman scored twice for Calgary and Johnny Gaudreau had three assists. Connor McDavid had a goal and three assists for the Edmontonians and Leon Draisaitl added a goal and two assists. Unfortunately, most coaches don’t see the fun of 15 goals scored in a playoff game like most fans do, so I would expect a little less excitement in Game 5. Calgary is a betting favorite -175 on DraftKings Sportsbook for game 2. Edmonton bets at +150
