Gambling911.com has your free NHL hockey pick and it's the UNDER 5 ½ on Calgary vs. Phoenix.

The UNDER has gone 25-7 in games where Calgary has just won by 2 goals or more over the last two seasons.

After four straight losses to open the month, the Calgary Flames look to be back on track.

The Northwest Division leaders look for their fourth straight road win over the Phoenix Coyotes on Saturday night against a club sinking out of the playoff picture.

Calgary (32-18-5), which lost four in a row from Feb. 2-7, finishes its three-game trip following Thursday's 2-0 win over Los Angeles. Miikka Kiprusoff stopped 36 shots and picked up his fourth shutout of 2008-09 as the Flames snapped a four-game road losing streak.

Phoenix (26-25-5) continues its four-game homestand Saturday after falling to Vancouver 4-3 on Thursday. The Coyotes led 3-1 on a second-period goal from defenseman Derek Morris, but allowed three third-period tallies as they lost their fourth straight at home. Phoenix opened the season 16-6-2 at Jobing.com Arena.

"Every game counts for us," said Coyotes coach Wayne Gretzky, whose team has dropped seven of eight. "We can't afford to have nights where we blow 3-1 leads in the final period."

The series is split in terms of Over/Under 5 ½ but we should warn that only on 3 occasions has a game gone under the 5 ½ points in either Calgary or Phoenix's last 10 played.

Gambling911.com still believes this one will go UNDER and remember, Sportingbet.com has special Canadian promos for new members.
