Biggest game of the year, that is how huge this is. Flames control their own destiny and have 2 games at home vs Vegas. Potential to be ahead if we can win both of those games. All starts with this game tonight.

One of the last 4 direct battles for top of the division. Last 3 if counting the Canucks out of that race now. I like the way the Flames are trending recently. Whatever the outcome, this promises to be a good tilt.

A Rinaldo vs. Reaves throw down would be awesome. Reaves tends to throw off our game.

Vegas in town?



Big divisional stakes on the line. Need to cash in with these points. Time to go all in and let it ride.

Flames win 4-3 in another nail biter.

Not a must win, but it is a game I need to see a strong performance.

That would be ugly for Rinaldo.

Hard to expect someone to put their health at risk but if Lucic wanted to show some leadership, he’d fight Reaves. Crazy that those two have never fought.

Pretty big game it seems! Looking forward to Rinaldo's return. I'm in the minority but I like his game when he's in the lineup. I'll predict he puts one in today.

Pretty big game. Climb to within 1 of them and the division lead. And no games until Thursday after tonight. The next 4 games are against teams holidng onto, or closely chasing wildcard spots.

Vegas will be rested as much as we are, and then they have the Oilers tomorrow, of course.

A guy I work with went to the golf tournament at the start of the year and was in Lucic’s group. He said Lucic said that Reaves refuses to fight him. Who knows if it’s true or not, but that was what Lucic said about it.

I like him better than Rieder but know neither should play every game.

I believe it. I have seen Looch try and engage Reaves many times in the past and he won't do it.

Reaves would absolutely destroy Rinaldo. Now a Reaves/Lucic tilt would be good.

I'd like to see both Rinaldo and Lucic play a hard fore check that hits the defense every time they touch the puck and avoid fighting all together.

I’m really cheering for Hextall to do well tonight.

Would be great if she was good and could snag a couple national games over Randorf.
