Flames live betting odds
NHL hockey is a fast and exciting game that truly comes to life with live betting. Live betting gives you the chance to bet on NHL games right in the middle of play at odds that change with the action on the ice. For the most part, the betting markets are the same ones from before the game but at constantly changing odds.
However, unique in-game props and live period-by-period markets will also be available. All live betting odds change with the score, time and momentum, which means they change as fast as a hockey game. Canadian online sportsbook apps are the best way to keep up with live Flames betting odds.
Best Flames betting app: PointsBet
If you live in a province that gives you a choice of where you can bet on the Calgary Flames, you can choose to bet with a licensed online sportsbook that counts the NHL as a partner.
Australian-based PointsBet Sports Book signed a multi-year strategic partnership deal with the NHL in February 2021. Not only is PointsBet now an official betting partner of the NHL, but the NHL now has an equity stake in PointsBet. That makes it the perfect place to bet on the Flames.
PointsBet currently operates in New Jersey, Iowa, Indiana, Illinois, Colorado and Michigan south of the border. It’s also live with Ontario sports betting where the province has opened online sports betting to private sportsbooks.
Quick rundown of Flames bets
- Flames moneyline: bet outright game winners. Lock in your bet at the currently posted moneyline odds.
- Flames puck line: bet game winners with a standard 1.5 goal or alternative puck line factored into the final score. Puck lines can flip the odds, turning moneyline favourites into underdogs and vice versa. Lock in your bet at the currently posted odds.
- Flames totals: bet on the total combined score by both teams in an NHL game, landing over or under a line set by oddsmakers. Lock in your bet at the currently posted odds.
- Flames props: bet on NHL player or team stat lines and other games within a game.
- Parlays: combine two or more of the bets above. This ups the potential payout, but all parlay legs must win.
- Futures: place futures bets on team wins, making the playoffs, winning a division, winning a conference or winning the Stanley Cup. You can find odds on several NHL awards including Art Ross & Rocket Richard odds, Vezina odds & more. Year-round markets with constantly adjusted odds can be locked in at any time.
- Live betting: bet mostly standard game lines during games at odds that change with the action. These also include period-by-period betting and advanced in-game props.
Flames Vegas odds vs. online odds
For the most part, Canadian sportsbooks are going to open up with the exact same Flames game lines found at traditional retail sportsbooks in Las Vegas. However, these lines can change ahead of the game, and they may end up very different by the time the first puck drops. NHL game lines move based on betting, and when betting is the underlying cause, the lines move independently.
In other words, a Canadian sportsbook might change its line on the Flames because more money is bet on Calgary than the opponent. However, other sportsbooks will not change unless more money is bet on one side or the other.
Of course, increased local interest in the Flames may lead to increased local betting on the Flames, making their lines at Canadian sportsbooks more likely to change than those in Vegas. You just never know until all the bets are in, which is why you should always watch the lines at BetRivers Sportsbook Canada or Caesars Sportsbook Canada, for example. You may even be able to take advantage of movement at one and not another.

What is the Flames logo and mascot?
The Calgary Flames were the Atlanta Flames from 1972 to 1980, and the logo was a red and orange flaming block letter ‘A’. After the 1979-80 season, the team relocated to Calgary, and the logo became a red and orange ‘C’ with flames coming out of the back of the letter. In 1994, the ‘C’ received a black outline, but it was removed in 2020.
Harvey the Hound is the team mascot and has been since 1983. Harvey was actually the first mascot in the NHL and looks a bit like a horse, mouse and dog.

Flames betting in Alberta
The Western Canada Lottery Corporation and the government of Alberta launched Sports Select, a sports betting lottery product, at lottery retailers across Alberta back in the 1990s.
Albertans have been able to bet on the Calgary Flames since then, but only through parlays. Sports Select forces players to link together 3-6 or 2-10 picks in these parlays, depending on the sport. All legs must win for a parlay bet to pay.
Alberta made plans to take Sports Select and other lottery products online in 2021. However, the federal government has since passed the Safe and Regulated Sports Betting Act, which legalizes single-game wagering across Canada. That gives Alberta the chance to launch an even bigger and broader sports betting product on its PlayAlberta.ca website, including single-game wagering.
That means Alberta will soon have a full-fledged online sportsbook. The province supported the federal government’s efforts to legalize single-game sports betting and appears ready to flip the switch on single-game wagering through PlayAlberta.ca. That means you’ll be able to bet on the Calgary Flames online in Alberta ensuing NHL seasons.
