FGD 31: Back to Toronto (5pm MT, SN West)

Just two days after a thumping from the Edmonton Oilers, the Calgary Flames (14-13-3, 31 points) head back to Toronto to play the Maple Leafs (19-9-2, 40 points) for a pair of games with big playoff implications for the Flames.

The puck drops just after 5 p.m. MT and you can catch the action on Sportsnet West or on Sportsnet 960 The Fan.
