The Calgary Flames are off to Edmonton. The Flames hopped on a charter flight on Sunday to the Western Conference’s playoff hub city, where they’ll remain until they either win the Stanley Cup or get eliminated from the playoffs.
But first, they have a tune-up game against Edmonton on Tuesday that will be their last chance to make lineup decisions. What questions do they need answered by that exhibition game?
Who starts Game 1?
The biggest question is who’s going to be in net when the puck drops on Aug. 1 against Winnipeg. Cam Talbot performed better in the scrimmages, but interim head coach Geoff Ward indicated that he and David Rittich will split this game.
