Going to be sloppy from both sides I think. If the talk of this flames team being one of the better party teams is true, a 10 days vacation for most could require a game to brush off the rust.
No Ovechkin will certainly help!

WAS still has good players even with Ovechkin out. Good test for CGY against a proven opponent. CGY just needs to keep playing amazing hockey. Starting the game (and remainder of season) the right way will be key. It will be interesting to see if CGY can set the tone and keep their incredibly high standards for themselves. Their belief is unreal. Show it.

Not going to lie, I need that break as much as the players. I was getting too into it, while not appreciating it enough. Nice to step away and get some perspective!
The flames are challenging for the Stanley cup this year!!!! And the president's trophy. The team has been this good in over 25 years!!!!
