We couldn't ask for LA to be playing worse hockey coming into this one. And they played last night. And we should be pissed off after the Buffalo game.

Going to the game tonight...Got a Jagr official game jersey for Christmas and every time I've worn it so far the flames have won. I rub the crest in a clockwise motion once before puck drop...We'll never lose again! May the power of Jagr be with us.

 

[Mobiandi]

You just know we're gonna halt the Kings' slide tonight

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

Holy crap, no joke, I literally have Don't Fear The Reaper on spotify right now when I clicked on this link.

Michael Frolik no longer wearing a no-contact jersey as the #Flames get morning skate underway at the Saddledome.

well that's just awesome.

Also for those wondering about the net tonight, could be Rittich, but obviously not definitive.

Pat Steinberg @Fan960Steinberg
David Rittich taking reps in the starter’s net this morning. Smith not out there. First half of a back-to-back tonight. #Flames

 

[Anglesmith]

I think it makes a lot of sense to put Smith against the Oilers.

This is more of a must win than the Edmonton game imo. Start the goalie that gives you the best chance. Kings are struggling, Flames are hot. You know what that means!!

Edit: probably doesn’t mean anything I have a bad feeling

 

[The Gnome]

Calgary Flames @NHLFlames Glen Gulutzan has confirmed Mike Smith will get the start tonight vs. the #LAKings.

[InfinityIggy]

Tkachuk v Drew Pouty. Can't wait.

 

[The Gnome]

No line changes:

Pat Steinberg @Fan960Steinberg
now
#Flames tonight:

Gaudreau-Monahan-Ferland
Tkachuk-Backlund-Brouwer
Bennett-Jankowski-Hathaway
Hrivik-Stajan-Lazar

Giordano-Hamilton
Brodie-Hamonic
Kulak-Stone

Smith

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Omg Gulutzan just stop

 

[BigRangy]

Good call going with Smith on this one

Leave the backup for tomorrow

 

[Mobiandi]

Ideally, Hathaway should slide to the fourth line. Mangi on the third. And GG's choice of Lazar and Stajan in the pressbox

 

[JPeeper]

Going to the game tonight. Hope to see a Tkachuk first career hat trick.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

We should nickname Tkachuk the Reaper.

 

[Volica]

We should nickname Tkachuk the Reaper.

11 points in his last 11 games (since Frolik went down).
The guy's playing at an elite level right now. This also coincides with him getting the 1st unit PP.

 

[MDCSL]

Our 4th line should be Mangiapane Hrivik lazar at this point

 

[Mr Snrub]

Signing Jagr worth it just for the lucky jersey

 

[CraigsList]

Why Mangiapane isn't playing is beyond me.

 

[Calculon]

Stajan's closing in on a 1000 games. There's not going to sit him even if he doesn't have much, if anything left.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Stajan's closing in on a 1000 games. There's not going to sit him even if he doesn't have much, if anything left.

Yep. It's actually a reasonably exclusive list. Only 313 members.

 

[Bounces R Way]

All signs point to a win: good record against these guys, they're coming off a back to back, slumping team with some injuries playing their backup.

So I'll bet we lose.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Yep. It's actually a reasonably exclusive list. Only 313 members.

I’m on the watched over 2000 game club, Stajan doesn’t impress me.
