TV: SNW - Radio: Sportsnet 960
z-Calgary Flames 49-23-7 (105 pts) - LA Kings 29-40-9 (67 pts)
What to say about this game? The Flames have clinched both the Pacific Division and Western Conference. The Kings have clinched last place in the Pacific Division, last place in the Western Conference and have the second worst record in the NHL. Who’s excited?!
The Flames and Kings have played three times so far this season with Calgary holding a 2-1 advantage this year and they won the only meeting between these two in Los Angeles 4-1 back on November 30th. These two last met up on March 25th with LA winning 3-0.
There. Are you amped up? No, no you’re not. All that’s left is to see if Johnny Gaudreau can get to 100 points on the season and if Drew Doughty will spend the night worrying about Matthew Tkachuk. The answer to that is “yes.” See you in the playoffs.
