[Macman]

After a 7-1 thumping of the Blues last game, the Flames are out on a 2 game roadtrip starting tonight in Columbus, see if they can carry on playing well and get back on track.

Go Flames!

[Erick Estrada]

I expect it will be difficult to get two points in St. Louis so this is a game they need to win to make up ground with their games at hand. I assume Vladar may get this start with Markstrom going the start against the Blues.

[agulati]

First game of a back to back, so it is important to get a win. Blues will be ready for us tomorrow, after the embarrassment they received on Monday.

Hopefully Mangiapane-Backlund-Coleman can have a multi-point night and get involved in some more depth scoring on this road trip.

[skcli]

Hat trick from Zadarov! Go Flames Go!

Was supposed to be at this game, but with Covid running rampant in Ohio and nobody wearing masks or taking precautions there, we decided against it....and got Covid (son and wife so far) anyway.

Flames win 5-2.

Going to be a road trip that surprises many. Flames win tonight and tomorrow despite St Louis bringing their best game.

Sorry to hear. This is one of those games we should bank 2 points. GFG.

The last if the eastern conference road trip games tonight IIRC.

[CroFlames]

The Blues are a great team, but the Flames seem to get up for great teams.

Hoping for 2 points in any fashion as it's going to be a tough one.

Maybe Tkachuk will put on another 5 point night showcasing himself for his new bosses?

They are playing the Bluejackets tonight.

Crazy that all 16 eastern conference away games will be done after just 38 games.

Well, TBF, a lot of the conversation before your post was about the Blues (I think that’s the next game).

From the Flames website, shows Markstrom getting the start.

COLUMBUS - The Flames look to pick up their second straight win in the first outing of a back-to-back road swing when they face the Blue Jackets tonight.

Here are the lines and D pairs from this morning's skate at Nationwide Arena.



Lines
Johnny Gaudreau - Elias Lindholm - Matthew Tkachuk

Andrew Mangiapane - Mikael Backlund - Blake Coleman

Milan Lucic - Sean Monahan - Dillon Dube

Trevor Lewis - Adam Ruzicka - Brett Ritchie



Pairings
Oliver Kylington - Christopher Tanev

Noah Hanifin - Rasmus Andersson

Nikita Zadorov - Erik Gudbranson



Goaltender
Jacob Markstrom



Up Next
The Flames hit the ice in St. Louis Wednesday night to finish off this quick two-game road set with a rematch against the Blues. Calgary skated to a 7-1 victory over St. Louis Monday night at the Scotiabank Saddledome.

With Monahan playing better, I'd like to see a swap between he and Backlund.

[Infinit47]

If the Flames can win tonight with a good effort they will have won 3 of 4 with a good effort in all 4 games. That will go a long way towards making me believe the post Covid slump is over.

Coleman has been better off late and is finding his stride with Backlund. Not sure how he will respond to the swap.

[Scroopy Noopers]

One last glorious eastern time zone game to enjoy… until the cup finals.
