The Calgary Flames are set to welcome the Dallas Stars to the Scotiabank Saddledome, hoping to turn around what has been a challenging start to their season. The matchup promises to be intriguing, especially given the Flames’ recent struggles and the Stars’ competitive form.
In recent weeks, Flames forward Matt Coronato has emerged as a standout player, leading the team in shots on goal. Since November 7, he has recorded the most shots of any NHL player, hitting the Over in shots on goal for seven consecutive games and notching a total of 36 shots during that stretch. Given the Stars’ average ranking in shots allowed (15th), Coronato is expected to maintain his momentum, especially since he is tied for the team lead with seven goals.
As for the odds, the Dallas Stars are favored in this matchup with a moneyline of -140, while the Flames are set at +120. The puck line is also in favor of the Stars at -1.5 (+175), whereas the Flames are at +1.5 (-215). The over/under is set at 5.5, with the odds for the over at -130.
In addition to Coronato’s performance, Rasmus Andersson has been key on defense, averaging a significant 24:16 time on ice per game and contributing heavily to the Flames’ defensive efforts with 39 blocked shots. His recent performance includes blocking 12 shots in the past four games and will be crucial as he faces the aggressive offense of the Stars.
On the other hand, Stars forward Wyatt Johnston hasn’t been performing at his usual level, with just one point and three shots on goal in his last four games. Predictably, his current slump may be a temporary issue, and those looking to bet could find value in his underperformance.
The Flames’ recent struggles against the Stars in Calgary, with Dallas winning three of the last four encounters, adds another layer of intrigue to this matchup. Fans can catch the action on CBC, with a scheduled puck drop at 10:00 p.m. ET on Saturday, November 22, 2025.
With Coronato’s impressive shot record and the Flames looking for a much-needed win against a tough opponent, this game has the potential to be a pivotal moment in their season.
