Flames Flames @ Senators 5:00pm (SportsNet)

The Calgary Flames are in the nation's capital to take on the Columbus Blue Jackets Ottawa Senators for Hometown Hockey. This week's Hometown Hockey is coming live from Okotoks, AB.

Looks like David Rittich will make his return to the net, with Craig Anderson starting in goal for the Senators. https://leftwinglock.com/starting-goalies/

The Flames have won their last four games, and currently sit three points up on San Jose with a game in hand for first place in the Western Conference.

Ottawa, on the other hand, has lost three in a row and sit at the bottom of the league wide standings with a lowly 49 points.

Perhaps this is a great excuse for the Flames brass to scout Stone without it seeming so obvious that they're interested? Perhaps, it's an excuse to look like we're super interested to drive the price higher for other teams?

If you are unable to make it to the Canadian Tire Centre, the game is being broadcast across the SportsNet Network.

Go Flames Go

I don’t think he is cleared for contact yet in practice.

pretty inexcusable to lose this one as long as they're awake for it

Minnesota has 64 points in 62 games and sit 3rd in the wild card race. The maximum amount of points they can get is 84. With a win tonight Calgary can get 85 points and clinch a playoff spot? Is that correct?

^ 2 points for a win, not 1.

As long as the Flames show up, there's no reason they shouldn't win this one. Hoping Rittich gets the start tonight.

So,

No Stone (I think), Duchene, and Dzingel.

Thats equivalent to the Flames missing Gaudreau, Monahan, and Lindholm.

Can Minnesota get 104 points? Can this be clarified further somehow?
