Great test for the Flames. Kings are really rolling this season, and seem to be fairly consistent. Flames really need to get off to a strong start against them tonight.
This is still a very important match-up. Yes, the Kings are way ahead, but the Flames can definitely catch them. What is pointless is having to leap-frog so many teams ahead of you. The Kings can easily stumble this season with an injury or two, and the Flames can put together a really nice win streak. I would say it is very unlikely if the Flames were trying to catch three teams ahead of them when they were all 10 points ahead. One team? Definitely doable, and this game is so important to get there.
Should be a fun game to watch.
