St. Louis at Calgary



The Flames, who are coming off a 4-3 shootout loss to the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday, have lost their last three games in extra time. However, Sutter is quick to point out his squad is 3-1-3 in its last seven outings and could just as easily be riding a winning spree driving them up the standings.

"The difference is the difference maker, right?" Sutter said. "You get to the extra or late opportunities, whether it's a power play or overtime or shootouts. ... That's where your best players have to be difference makers, for sure."

Certainly goal scoring has been an issue for the Flames during their recent struggles. Calgary has managed nine goals in its last four games.

Blues visit the Flames after shootout win

BOTTOM LINE: The Calgary Flames host the St. Louis Blues after the Blues defeated the Edmonton Oilers 4-3 in a shootout.

Go Flames go!

[Northendzone]

would be nice if the flames were not down by a deuce before everyone has had a chance for thier second shift

[Toonage]

He had a rough start against Vancouver and has historically meh numbers against St. Louis. Sit Markstrom. Give this one to Vladar.

[sonq]

Ain't no way Flames beat Blues. That being said, the one time I have no faith in them, they will probably play good and win

[CFO]

Any idea how many one goal games flames have lost including shoot outs and games more then 1 goal (empty net goals)?

Got to be over 10.

[SixtySix]

is it 1-0 Blues already or is Vladar starting

[Hockey_Ninja]

Would be nice to see Phillips play tonight but I have a feeling Looch is gonna slot back in

[bubbsy]

The only question I really have is what intoxicating vice i’ll enjoy while taking this doozy in....

[442scotty]

I’d like to see Zahorna with Huberdeau for a game or two. He’s got more skill than people think. Current first line isn’t working so why not throw some sheet on the wall and see what sticks

[CFO]

I really want to see the D step up offensively.

[Bonded]

Two struggling teams. Coin flip

[Yeah_Baby]

I didn't start watching the game on Monday until after Montreal tied it.
Likewise I have D&D tonight during the game, so I expect the Flames to be down in the first period and come back when I can't watch anymore.

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Be nice if the offense actually provided some offense.

I’ll say the Flames lose 3-2.

[Redliner]

go flams

[Always Earned Never Given]

Noticed that in the last few GDT, Flames record at the top was/is missing their latest loser points.

I guess we all want to forget the last 3 OT/shoot out losses but I believe team is at 6 total.

[calumniate]

OT loss predicted! We should dress some overtime / shootout specialists

[chummer]

Keep the faith!! 4-2 Flames.

[Zamboniman]

Report just in from NHL league offices and Flames brass: To save everyone time and grief, and to get to the more interesting part of the game quicker, tonight's game will begin with the score 2-0 Blues. Both goals will be credited to the referees (one for each).

[topfiverecords]

Wait, a back to back with travel from Edmonton for the Blues? This is backwards.
