Default Flames vs Panthers, 7:00 pm - The Return of Ryan Lomberg SN1 SNW

... and some other guy, apparently.

So nobody wants to start a GDT today? Should the boys even bother showing up tonight? How about the fans?

The Flames are flickering and the Panthers are averaging 5.9 goals per game in January, including a 6-2 win over the Flames on January 4.

Players to watch:

Florida - The enigmatic Sam Bennett, who returns to Calgary for the first time after being traded at the 2021 trade deadline.

Calgary - Whoever decides to fight Sam Bennett; my money is on Tkachuk although I can see Tanev doing it for some reason.

Somebody else can post lineups and gameday news.

Discuss.

The Panthers are scoring at will lately. I have a hard time seeing that total dropping in this game against the Flames. They'll get 5.... but Johnny has a 6 point night! 7-5 Flames!

I have to say this is a game I've really not been looking forward to.

The Flames and our goaltending especially, have been dismal on home ice while concurrently, the Panthers are scoring goals for fun.

If the Flames dont get their poop in a group tonight this could get out of hand in a hurry.

I liked the lines used in practice and am hoping the time used between games to prepare has them more than ready.

While Flames/Panthers games in Florida are usually bat#### events, I don't have the same recollection of that in any games at the Dome. We'll see.

The bounce back starts tonight.

Flames win 5-4 on the strength of an unlikely Tyler Pitlick hat trick.

Unlikely indeed. He's hurt. Again.

Not expecting much tonight after how the Panther took over their last meeting.

I'll watch to see how it plays out.

No offense to Tkachuk, but I would advise that he does not fight Bennett.

The 4L is a wasteland but honestly at home, how much are we really going to see them? They'll be used but I don't expect a lot which means the remaining 9 are slotted how they likely should be.

If Bennett fights someone it's more likely to be someone who is new: Zadorov, Gudbranson, Richardson.

That said, while Matt isn't a great fighter, Bennett isn't that great either. He's been handled a couple times this year. And the one time this year he won, he kind of jumped the other guy. And Matt has decent defence. He's had to learn.
