Flames vs Golden Knights, 7:30 PM, MST. Sportsnet 360, Fan 960
Back from the All Star Break, the Flames hope to put that rest to good use as they start making up all those Covid-delayed games. Vegas visits the 'Dome after giving the Grease a pounding.
Will luck be a lady tonight? Tonight's lucky contestant sure hopes so as he tries his hand at our game of chance. But Our Hero knows that The House always wins:
Go Flames

Flames are 3-9-0 all-time against VGK, but 3-2-0 at home. This is going to be a tough game, even at home. Flames NEED to make the Saddledome a tough place to play.

I would have been very intrigued to see what a week in Edmonton would have been like for the Contestant.
Great stuff Puppet Guy, hopefully the Flames toss a little acid on the Golden Knights and start breaking them down as they make a run for the Division.

Hopefully the Flames will be ready after a few days off and Vegas having played last night.
Go Flames!

No. They have to clear quite a bit of cap space first.

Opportunity to see how we stack up against the Knights, albeit without Eichel in their lineup. Expect the team to come out strong.

I think that actually gives them an advantage in this case.
They had a chance to gets their legs going again whereas our guys have been off for 7 days.
Weather the storm for the first 10 minutes and then start to get into that rhythm tey had the last 6 games or so before the break. They were playing outstanding 200' hockey.

Let's try to get a win against them while they don't have Jack. I feel like it will hurt extra every time he scores on Calgary.

Time for all the cliches! Huge 4 point game, must win divisional game, huge 2 points, measuring stick game, etc.
In all seriousness, would be nice to be 5 points back of Vegas with 5 games in hand with a win tonight.

No cliches needed, it's post-all star, and the games are going to get tougher from here. Vegas handled the Oilers, it will be interesting to see if the Flames can bring it against a fast deep team. Immoveable Object versus Irresistable Force here, we'll see which comes out on top.

Yes, win tonight (even in OT) and the Flames will be 1st in the Pacific by points%.

That's what I meant and the Knights are pretty good so last night was like a warm up for them and the Flames will be a bit rusty, hopefully they practiced hard which they probably did.

Was listening to the radio this morning and Eichel actually doesn’t seem like a good fit in their roster unless they trade one of their top two centers.
Doubt they would do business with the Flames. But potential opportunity.

Headed to the game tonight - does anyone know if they are doing the Hockey Happy Hour thing with concessions open again?

Even if they are down by 6 goals and he scores with 3 mins left in the 3rd?

The boo birds will be swift and deadly as ever. Maybe we can start an "Eichel, you suck!" Chant at the dome. The Adam Fox night was legedary.

But Eichel didn't spurn the Flames. Someone else just traded for him.
