2 hour flight they could have left at 10 on the 27th and been at the rink at 1pm or so for a 7pm game. Oilers flew into Calgary yesterday, its a one hour longer flight. Pretty sure the Flames flew to Seattle today.

Ya I don't really see how completely disrupting overnight time to get a few hours of sleep in a hotel then skate then nap then gametime is preferable.
Hell, couldn't they morning skate at home, nap on the plane, and then go straight to the rink upon landing?
