Just The Facts (Mostly Facts)
-It’s magic number time! For the Flames to clinch a playoff it’s 2.5, for the division it’s 6.
-Johnny Gaudreau is one point away from his first 100 point season in the NHL. He’s currently tied his career high with 99. In three games vs the Kraken this season he has two goals and one assist.
-Against the last 11 expansion teams (true expansion, not contraction) Calgary has never swept a first year opponent. With a win tonight the Flames would be 4-0-0 against Seattle, with the next best mark being 5-2-0 against the San Jose Sharks in their inaugural season in 1992.
-Seattle has really struggled in their first season in the league (which is expected) and especially in the Pacific Division. Against their geographical rivals the Kraken are 5-17-0 in the Pacific.
-Since dealing two of their best players in Calle Jarnkrok (3/18) and Mark Giordano (3/23) the Seattle Kraken have gone 4-5-0, which isn’t terrible considering their overall record on the season.
