Just The Facts (Mostly Facts)
-It’s been 255 days since the Flames and Canucks last played each other where Calgary won 6-2.
-Vancouver went into a slight two game postponement with 10-1-1 record. Since coming out of that they are 3-4-2 and have dropped to 7th place in the Pacific Division standings.
-Calgary is 3-2-0 in their last five, the first time they’ve had more wins than losses in a stretch since a four game winning streak from Nov 18-23.
-With Darryl Sutter’s comments in the media after the 5-1 loss to St. Louis, expect Jacob Markstrom to be back in net again tonight. He’s started the last six Flames games and is an even 3-3-0, but has surrendered 13 goals in those three defeats.
-Johnny Gaudreau and Matthew Tkachuk will look to get back on the scoresheet after having their six game point streaks snapped. Over that stretch the two combined for 28 points.
-Mikael Backlund has scored goals in back to back games for the first time this season.
-Despite their current home struggles, the Flames are 7-3-0 in their last 10 games at the Dome against Vancouver.
