The Calgary Flames and Vancouver Canucks are both somewhat in the same boat. Both out of the playoffs right now but both aren’t far off. The Flames have 35 points in 33 games and the Canucks have 34 points in 33 games as well. Both need as many wins as they can get. They’ll be playing their fourth and final game against each other tonight.
The Canucks have lost four of their last five and the Flames are on a three-game losing streak. So nothing’s going well for either team tonight. The Flames will be playing the second game of a back-to-back so we’ll be seeing David Rittich in net.
