Nashville at Calgary

Both the Calgary Flames and Nashville Predators have been hoping for a miracle run to make the Stanley Cup playoffs.

When they meet Monday in Calgary, a loss will likely force one of the teams to give up on their postseason aspirations.

Heading into the night's action, both the Flames and Predators will be in arrears to the Winnipeg Jets in the chase for the Western Conference's final wild-card spot.

Flames just not good enough

It won’t officially be the death knell of their season, but the Calgary Flames’ 3-2 shootout loss to the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday is perfect example of why they will miss the Stanley Cup playoffs.

The Flames outshot the Canucks by a 43-33 margin. They sputtered at the start, pushed like mad to close the gap — even erasing a 2-0 deficit in the third period — but falling short in the end.

Just like their late-season push for a playoff spot, close but no cigar.

Predators take on the Flames, look to stop road skid

BOTTOM LINE: The Nashville Predators travel to the Calgary Flames looking to stop a three-game road slide.

Calgary has a 37-27-15 record overall and a 19-16-4 record in home games. The Flames have a +nine scoring differential, with 251 total goals scored and 242 given up.

Nashville has gone 19-17-4 in road games and 40-31-8 overall. The Predators have a 28-7-3 record when scoring three or more goals.
