Thats a good point on playing tomorrow. Was hoping further down the line if cancelled. Might have to change my prediction of a win if the nucks come in rested.

I would think television scheduling is the bigger issue than team and building availability, no?

I'll try taking a page from Bertuzzied's book.

Flames bitch-slap the Canucks harder than the O'Reilly incident did on the psyche of the fanbase.

3-2

Can't they just postpone the time of the game? To an 8PM start, instead of 6?

They weren't allowed to fly out last night. Too much fog in Calgary

So if everything went off fine and it landed, it would be 2:15 landing Calgary time, then an hour to get to the Saddledome gets them there at 3-3:30 for a 6pm game...in front of a sparse crowd.

Did the Flames skate today? Meaning they'd be already there.

This might end up being like the New Jersey game back in the 80's when 400 fans showed up to watch the Flames and Devils.
