Projected Lines

The Flames will be without Blake Coleman and Matthew Tkachuk, but for different reasons. Coleman will be serving game one of a two game suspension for a hit in Wednesday night’s game and Tkachuk is just getting the night off. There are many players in this lineup tonight that are battling for their roster lives as the preseason winds down.

Puck drop is at 7 PM MT from the Scotiabank Saddledome.
