Well, it was a big one for the Calgary Flames. After getting handed to by the Detroit Red Wings on Wednesday night where they lost 8-2 and a Matthew Tkachuk suspension occurred, they have to prove themselves. And they did just that against the Philadelphia Flyers today.
Heading into this game, Johnny Gaudreau was on an eight-game point-streak (4-game goal-streak) with 14 points in that stretch. He also had six points in five games against the Philadelphia Flyers. His eight-game point-streak is the second longest current active point-streak in the NHL, right after Anze Kopitar.
