FGD #71: Home Ice Advantage - The Flames Host Iginla's Crew
(Candice Ward / USA Today Sports)
As the season winds down, it's a bit fitting that Jarome Iginla's Colorado Avalanche are visiting. The Avalanche are deep in the playoff hunt, and actually hold the hammer right now regarding the Flames tenuous playoff hopes. More than likely, the Flames will be eliminated from the post-season within a week or so. That said, they've been playing good hockey of late and a visit from their old friend can provide a glimpse of what the team once was - a veteran-laden group - and hopefully drive their motivation to transform into what they want to become - a consistent playoff team.
