After two days off, the Calgary Flames (7-1-3, 17 points) are back in action tonight as they begin a very, very busy stretch involving nine games in 15 days (in eight cities). They begin this gauntlet with the fifth and final game of their current homestand against the San Jose Sharks (6-4-1, 13 points), my cousin’s favourite team.
The puck drops just after 7 p.m. MT and you can catch the action on television via Sportsnet One (with Rick Ball and Kelly Hrudey) or on radio via Sportsnet 960 The Fan (with Derek Wills and Peter Loubardias).
