The Calgary Flames need to bounce back tonight and need all the wins they can get before 2017 ends. They’re on the outside looking in right now with 35 points in 32 games. A win tonight against the top team in the Western Conference will help them out quite a bit.
This will be the second meeting between the two teams. The Flames won the first meeting in a shootout. Since then, the Nashville Predators have gone 16-4-2. So that’s not intimidating at all. The Flames will need to watch their special teams a lot tonight.
