Calgary Flames (21-21-3) at Carolina Hurricanes (21-20-8)
4 p.m. MT, PNC Arena
The news was no shock.
David Jones will replace Micheal Ferland (who is out with an upper body/head injury) on the Calgary Flames top line tonight against the Carolina Hurricanes, a role he’s assumed for a portion of this season already.
Meaning that he understands how No.’s 13 and 23 operate.
Meaning that his job is (relatively) simple: go to the net or find No.’s 13 and 23.
“Jonesy is a great up and down player, driving hard to the net and getting in on the forecheck,” Flames head coach Bob Hartley said on Sunday morning at PNC Center.
