Projected Lines

Calgary Flames versus Los Angeles Kings

Crypto. com Arena

Los Angeles, California

The Flames had a successful start to their road trip, picking up two wins in two games against a lowly San Jose squad that turned into a slumpbuster for a few names on the roster. They’ll look to continue the trend as they chase down the Kings who are currently second in the division and five points ahead of Calgary.

We start our lineup in the blue paint at morning skate, where there might be a swap.

Per Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun:

When we last saw Dan Vladar, he had stopped 20 of 24 in an OTL against the Leafs on December 10th. At the time, it ended a four game win streak for him. He comes into tonight getting his first start since, and carries a 5-4-2 record alongside a .905 Save Percentage and 2.81 Goals Against Average. Jacob Markstrom gets a rest day after starting five in a row.

No changes for skaters have been reported live from line rushes at tonight’s warm-ups.
