Flames at Stars GameThread

Wow the Flames' season is almost over. Less than a month to go at this point.

For projected lines, be sure to read Hayley's preview! In fact, read it no matter what!

The big Flames lineup news tonight is that Joey MacDonald is getting his first start in forever. With Karri Ramo close to returning and everyone in love with Joni Ortio (and rightfully so), this might be one of his last NHL starts. Or maybe not, maybe another team will pick up the aging journeyman, I dunno. But he seems like a cool dude, so welcome back, Joey Mac.

Alex Chiasson returns to the Stars' lineup after sitting out their last game due to an anxiety attack after the whole Rich Peverley thing. The Stars won their last game in OT, and everybody seems okay now, so hopefully tonight is good and fun for everyone!

The last time the Stars played the Flames, they scored 7 goals. But the Flames are coming off a 7 goal performance. Basically what I'm saying is, someone is going to score 7 goals tonight.

Go team!!
