It was against the Sharks that the Flames' four-game winning streak started, along with Ramo's reign. Ramo isn't letting go of the starter's reins just yet, nor should he; so hopefully, the winning ways continue.
Stajan makes his return to the lineup after suffering an injury back on Oct. 28. That pushes Sven Baertschi out, which, considering his rather consistent banishment to the fourth line throughout his call up, isn't surprising.
The Flames' lineup isn't at optimal value, but it's close. With Diaz taking Deryk Engelland's spot (and it's worth noting that Engelland isn't injured, Hartley just wants to keep everyone fresh and playing - and it's doubly worth noting that every time he says this to get Diaz in, it's Engelland who sits, every single time), the Flames just have one goon (the last-minute switch of McGrattan for Brandon Bollig) in the lineup, compared to... well...
Let's just say that even without it being as good as it could be, the Flames are dressing a higher quality fourth line than the Sharks. So. Go Stajan!
