Projected Lines

The Flames will move some pieces around for tonight’s game, including rewarding Sam Bennett’s play as of late with a promotion. Bennett will skate with Mikael Backlund and Matthew Tkachuk tonight as the Flames hope to get his game moving. There’s no doubt Bennett has been working hard lately, he just hasn’t had any luck putting the puck in the net. Speaking of nets, Mike Smith gets the start tonight between the pipes for the Flames.
