The Calgary Flames are hitting the road after a very successful five-game home-stand. The first stop on their four game trip across the Central Division (and Detroit) begins tonight in Nashville against the Predators.
The Flames are probably feeling pretty happy to have escaped the last two weeks undefeated. Well, they're good at home, but they've won just one road game since the beginning of November - going 1-6-1 in the process. If they have visions of playoff hockey in their heads, and they might given how awful the Pacific Division has been this season, they'll need to win some games outside of the Saddledome to get there.
