Since our last meeting:
The Flames have gone 7-7-3
The Blues have gone 9-6-1 (5-4-1 in December so far).

Big game for both teams as the Blues look to close the gap on the division lead while the Flames look to chase a divisional playoff spot and build off of their 6-1 win against the Canucks. The Blues are coming off of a 4-0 shutout at the hands of the Jets.

Jagr's out, Lazar's in.

Flames fun fact of the day: We actually don't have the worst PP in December or over the last month either. In the case of the former, we're second last at 8.8% while Chicago is at 3.4%. It could always be worse :s

I’ve liked him so far but we’ve arguably had our 3 best defensive games in front of him so far.
It's also a matter of resting of Smith because he's not been great and the fact that it's not good for Rittich to go weeks between games

Putting Rittich out against a St.Louis team that'll be hungry for a bounce back could be risky. I'd rather play a rested Smith.

nhl.com had Smith as a starter. At the moment it seems Smith is a clear #1 for GG and Rittich gets some games to give Smith some rest.

We did fine against a hungry Blues team when Smith went down and Lack played 2/3 of the game. This team has in it them to dominate teams like the Blues. Goaltending is not #1 on their list of worries anymore

I like the way Snrub thinks!

I wouldn't mind seeing Rittersport play 30 games for us this year. Guy could be something.

Also, hoping for a decent follow-up performance. This feast or famine roller-coaster isn't fun. 4 goals or more please!

Go Flam!
