Game Preview | |
A Look BackThe Habs looked flat after playing a game in Vancouver, traveling and playing again within a twenty-four hour period. The Flames were rested but rusty and knew they could play the long game and that’s what they did.

Game Expectations |
The Flames have given up at least three goals in their last six games and have lost four of those games. This is an excellent opportunity for the Habs to get some points to get back near the top of the division.
Bottom LineCarey Price has had four great games in a row and the Habs will need another one from him tonight. |
