This is a huge game. A Flames win and Oiler loss tonight and all of a sudden Flames have a chance at a divisional seed instead of wild card.
Yeah, it's one of those things.

I mean, we got sweped by EDM but we swept the Wild who are 1st in the West.

This is a very massive game. A regulation win and we are 7pts clear of 9th in the west with 18 games remaining. It will put our playoff chances in a great spot.

I stopped wearing my jersey to regular season games last season but this is no ordinary regular season game!

Pumped for this one. Hopefully the players are too.

hope they've found a way to convince these guys that a Calgary crowd would be more than happy to cheer on a style of play similar to what they do on the road ... that jekyll hyde thing needs to stop

good start is crucial with a first game back from a road trip game this huge

Biggest game since we beat them to clinch in 2015. Has a similer feeling. GO FLAMES GO. Hope the dome is loud.

A regulation win moves CGY from 74.8% to 82.8%.

LA would drop from 50.2% to 39.8%.

I'll be totally honest, I thought having a big game in March would have been a dream for this season after the start the team had. Boy howdy am I glad I was wrong. Nothing beats meaningful hockey during the final leg of the season.

Flames need to come out fired up and ready to play. LA is pissed off from last nights game. Hopefully Bishop will have some gitters playing for his new team if he does start tonight.

Oh Ok! So now it is more clear why Vasilevskiy was in net for Tampa Bay against us and not Bishop...as he was scheduled for today! Or is he as I have not heard anything official yet?

It's also you can play night at the dome.

Do your self a favor and don't read the comments section on social media.

It's pretty much the start of playoff round 0 here.

Let's go Flames.

Bishop may be in net for the Kings.
