I think the Flames should take Bjorck and are more likely to do so, but +650 seems a little long here (bet365) *would pass at this now with Calgary apparently getting Nemec

Betting Highlights
Favorite Bet of All-Time
Live bet the Capitals while down 3-2 to Vegas after two strong periods in what was their Cup-clinching win. This was my best moment as a hockey fan, but also a good example of the live betting situations that make the NHL so unique.
Most Heartbreaking Bet
Any player prop that has lost due to a scorekeeper error.
