Flames wrap up their 6 game road trip in Winnipeg tonight. The Jets will be fired up at the always raucous MTS Centre, it should be a good one.

You think the Flames play well tonight or are they looking forward to getting back home?

It's a tough call, they had a flu bug go through the dressing room this past week which explains why they were so flat and lacking energy. Sounds like Hiller is back between the pipes tonight (not that Ramo has played badly, Hartley is just continuing the rotation). Jets still looking for their first home win of the season, so they should have some extra pep in their step.

Flames just need to get off to a good start, I think that will put lots of pressure on the Jets to try and get something going

3-3 is a pretty impressive start to the Flames season given their schedule.

I'd be happy to see the Flames surprise people this year. Scrappy young team.

Jets lead 1-0 after one and Andrew Ladd gets away with a dirty hit on Giordano. I guess the Flames with have to climb some in the standings before they get any respect from the zebras.

Rangers shutout the Sharks 4-0 and the Jets lead the Flames 1-0 after one period

Johnny Hockey having a good 2nd period. Nice wrap around PPG and a good set up, Flames up 3-1

Flames have lit the lamp three times in the 2nd period to take a 3-1 lead. Jets players taking runs at Flames and Calgary taking advantage of odd man rushes.

Johnny Hockey doin' work

Wideman made a great play on the third goal, taking that hit. And is Buff a F or D these days? Defense, right? He laid a hit, decided not to get in position, and led to a odd-man rush.

Ducks leading the Blues 2-0 after one period - Matt Beleskey and Sami Vatanen with the goals

T.J. Brodie makes it 4-1 Flames

 

[dash]

The hockey gods are punishing Andrew Ladd for that dirty hit in period 1. He knocks down Brodie and then forgets about him as TJ roofs one past Pavelec.

 

[Comeds]

The Jests are awful.

 

[dash]

Paul Maurice needs to get his players under control or this game could get really nasty.

4-2 road trip for the Flames. I'll take that anytime.

He looks like he's still a teenager...
