After a dreadful loss to the Edmonton Oilers at Rogers Place to start their season off, the Calgary Flames will be coming back south to have their home-opener against the Winnipeg Jets. These two teams played in their final exhibition games before the season started.
And the Flames looked real good. Especially goaltender Mike Smith, who also looked incredible – solid and confident – in their season opener. He stopped 42 of 44 shots, but unfortunately the team in front of him couldn’t quite help him out with a win.
Tonight in the home opener, the Flames are looking for a much different outcome.
