After a comeback victory in Detroit on Wednesday evening, the Calgary Flames (25-12-4, 54 points) will need to be sharper when they visit the Boston Bruins (22-14-4, 48 points). The Bruins are a deep, rested team who are coming off a big win in the Winter Classic on New Year’s Day.
The puck drops just after 5 p.m. MT on Sportsnet West and Sportsnet 960 The Fan.
