After his play last game, I hope that Raymond is back.

Totally agree with Jooris for Bollig. Don't know what Jooris did the first game to be the odd man out, but I haven't liked #52s game one bit in either game.

Flames always seem to struggle against the Blues. Hoping this year is different.

Wow, the Flames haven't scored a goal against the Blues in Calgary since that crazy Christmas comeback two seasons ago.

They need a statement game tonight.

I don't think tonight is the night. The Flames are 2-8 vs the Blues in the last 10 games. 3-1 Blues.
You also predicted a Canucks win on Saturday and I don't remember you being so negative...

Is Polak rubbing off on you?

These lines look good. Hopefully the Ferland - Stajan - Jones line can matchup against some of STL's big forwards, and hopefully Raymond has another strong game.

I hope everyone's excited to hear the play by play out of their rear surround speakers! 5 years and running, don't fix it now!

Just say no to splitting up Bennett-Backlund-Frolik.

Why? Both are centermen, and Bennett doesn't need to be playing wing to develop properly.

There was a poster who suggested Backlund actually switch to Bennett's wing, and that would actually be an interesting proposition.

Backlund is such a good defensive center though

Just say no to playing a promising franchise centre at wing.

Yeah, how dare you predict anything but an 82-0 season?

I'm optimistic about tonight but I really hope we see some secondary scoring. Frolik getting his first as a Flame maybe?

No lineup changes, Hiller starts, per Steinberg.

Bennett is a center. Just say no to wasting our best center prospect ever on the wing.

I fully expected Jooris to be in tonight. Maybe they wanted to keep Bollig in against the big bad Blues. I feel like Jooris' speed would be great for this game though..

Oh well, Go Flames Go!!

Bennett will get his first point tonight. He came close on Saturday and you can tell he's hungry for it.

Does anyone have any experience watching this game on the Sportsnet Now app? I know that you can watch all of the "normal" Sportsnet channels on the app, but because this is on that special Sportsnet Flames channel, I'm not sure. It doesn't currently appear on the app or the schedule, but it may not until it is actually being broadcast.

Just trying to plan my evening out well in advance!
