Calgary Flames
Game #16: Flames at Blues Game Thread
After a disappointing loss to the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night, the Flames continue their road trip tonight in St. Louis without the services of Curtis Glencross.
Curtis Glencross is going to be out six weeks with an MCL sprain. Somehow Sven Baertschi is still a scratch. Max Reinhart is back in the lineup! The Blues are really good! Discuss all this and more.
Lines and Pairings:
Flames:
Bouma-Stajan-Jones
Cammalleri-Colborne-Galiardi
Jackman-Monahan-Hudler
Reinhart-Backlund-McGrattan
Wow that's terrible.
Butler-Brodie
Wideman-Russell
O'Brien-Billins
Berra
Blues:
Steen-Backes-Stewart
Roy-Sobotka-Oshie
Schwartz-Berglund-Tarasenko
Cracknell-Lapierre-Reaves
Bouwmeester-Pietrangelo
Jackman-Shattenkirk
Polak-Leopold
Elliott
If you’re keeping track, the total number of fomer Flames on the Blues’ roster tonight is three: Jay Bouwmeester, Jordan Leopold and Adam Cracknell. The Blues are 6-2-2 in their past 10 games and Alex Steen somehow leads the league in goals and has an eight game point-streak going. Who knew? Somehow St. Louis is still eighth in the West, but they do have games in hand on most teams.
Go Flames!
