Thursday night’s game in Nashville was the best and the worst of the Calgary Flames (7-6-2, 16 points). They were horrendous through two periods, then seemingly decided to win the game… and then they did. We’ll see if they can build on that rollercoaster of emotion tonight when they head to Nationwide Arena, home of that damned cannon and the Columbus Blue Jackets (5-5-3, 13 points) for an early Saturday night game.
The puck drops at 5 p.m. MT on Sportsnet West and Sportsnet 960 The Fan.
