5 Things - Flames @ Sharks

Know Your Enemy

The Sharks return home after a five-game, up-and-down, 'all-over-the-map' road swing.

They began with a 4-1 loss to Dallas on Dec. 5, followed by a 4-1 win over Carolina Dec. 7, then a 4-1 defeat to Philadelphia Dec. 9, followed by a pair of OT wins against Toronto (3-2) on Dec. 11 and Pittsburgh (6-5) on Dec. 13.

That final game was a wild one, San Jose rallying from a four-goal, third-period deficit for the victory.

Never-say-die Sharks seek to reverse recent history vs. Flames

Now to see what the San Jose Sharks do for an encore when they play host to the Calgary Flames on Tuesday.

'He can literally eat, breathe and sleep hockey': Family of Flames blueliner Hunter Brzustewicz has seen the work

With his proud stepfather on the Flames' Dads Trip, the 21-year-old defenceman returns to L.A. where he made his NHL debut last season.

Scotia Place will hit some key milestones in 2026 after a year of progress below ground

When 2025 began, there wasn’t a lot to look at on the Scotia Place site. Well, there was a hole. A gradually growing hole as the construction team excavated the site, digging 35 feet down to accommodate future work.
As 2025 winds down, that gigantic hole has largely been filled with two full levels of poured concrete that will be the basis for the below-grade event and mezzanine levels of the arena. And while there’s still a little bit of below-grade concrete left to be poured, the concrete skeleton for the future home of the Calgary Flames has begun to appear above ground.

Are you in the Mountain time zone? A game in the Pacific time zone shouldn't be a problem as it is a difference of 1 hour.

Great interview with the NoCal Goalie dads. You can see where Cooley got his gift for gab.



I wonder which one will get the start in his home town?

Flames win this. With the Dads on hand, I just don't see this going any other way.

Wonder if the Sharks will get more than 1 shot in the first 30 minutes this time.

If we win today, we move up to being tied for 10th last in the league. Not good!

If you ignore games played
And if all the other teams ahead of them, who are also playing tonight, don't gain any points.

But best to get an early start on the complaining!

Huh? At 32 points (34 games) they’d be tied with the teams in 24-27 place…with more games played. At least that’s what NHL.com seems to show.

What am I missing?

I am pretty sure that even if the Flames were to win the next 49 regular season games and then the next 16, he would still complain because Flames were picking last instead of first at the draft!

Even if you ignore the games played you need to also ignore the tiebreaker, which the Flames lose to every team not named Columbus to get some sort of tied for 9th (Rhett44 always rounds up, that is how we know that Kadri is 40). So lots of mental gymnastics to get to that level of panic.

Do you think Pachal will draw in since his dad is on the dads trip? Hope they don't take Bru out, maybe Hanley instead..
