Flames at Kings 8:00PM MT TV: SN1 NBCSN Radio: Fan960
The West Coast has been good to the Flames so far. A pair of convincing 6-2 wins over the Canucks and The Sharks. Tonight the Heroes look to make it three in a row against the Kings. Perhaps The Tuskan Raider Lucic will extend his point streak, who knows? I do. I know. He's gonna light it up again tonight in his old stomping grounds.

Much like San Jose, the Flames owe this team a beating to make up for poor performances earlier in the year.
Make it so.

I will donate $10 to CP if the flames win by 3 or more goals.

(wasn't planning to do this, but I'm bored and restless)
Reruns seem to be working, so how about some old-school?
...in lost Carcossa one is to fear the King in Yellow. But in Los Angeles, the yellow King must beware the Puppet in Yellow!

I couldn't watch the last two games and from everything I've heard they were the best two games of the season
I could watch it tonight.....but for the sake of the win streak I will find something else to do
Go Flames Go!

No reason to drop the ball here. Keep playing like they have the past 2 games, and this should be a W.

I think the issue is that the Flames treated the earlier meetings like they were just another game and the Kings really get up for the Flames because they hate Tkachuk so much. In the NHL on most nights the team that wants it more will win regardless of the disparity so the Flames need to get up for these guys as you have to win these games if your goal is to have home ice advantage in the playoffs.

Predicting a 6-2 Flames win.
(Yeah, I know... what is the likelihood that this pathetic team could score 6 goals...)
GFG!

I also feel like the Kings were actually in the Flames' heads when everyone thought it was the other way around. Now with this "feud" behind them thanks to the BoA, I expect we see a focused Flames team tonight.

As long as the music was pumping at practice, we should be good. Just carry over the effort from the last two games.

I guess this is the yin and the yang of having a super pest like Matty Tkachuk eh? It appears that Flames are now the only team that the Kings get up for anymore.
I expect this to be a tough one.
