- Mark Giordano is one point from tying Hooley Smith and becoming 93rd all time in points as an NHL defenceman. Who is Hooley Smith? He played from 1924 until 1941, amassing 426 points in 717. After Gio passes him only 7 players who played fewer games than Gio have gotten more points.
- Mikael Backlund is one point from tying Willi Plett and becoming 22 in points as a Flame.
- Mark Giordano is one goal from tying Sylvain Cote become 63rd all time in goals as an NHL D-man.
- David Rittich will pass Brian Elliott in games played as a Flame with 50 games after tonight. Rittich is also one win from passing Elliott as well.
