BUFFALO — They'll be teamed together at the 2016 World Cup of Hockey. That was Wednesday's big news.
And Thursday's big story? On this night, Calgary Flames forwards Johnny Gaudreau and Sean Monahan will be skating separately.
Same squad, of course. But, in an effort to snap his squad out of a six-game winless skid, Flames bench boss Bob Hartley will split the dynamic duo for a road date with the Buffalo Sabres at First Niagara Center.
