|---|
| The Flames started this 6 game homestand with a 2-1 win over Edmonton, they look to get win #2 against the Rangers. Tanguya and Bouwmeester scored their 1st goals of the season vs the Oilers and hope to continue the hot hand. Jokinen has a point in every game so far this season and hopes to extend that tonight. 4-2 Flames – Jokinen, Morrison, Moss & Butler |
