It’s a big-time divisional clash on Thursday night at the Saddledome! The Pacific Division leading Calgary Flames (40-18-8, 88 points) try to cement their lead when they host the second place Los Angeles Kinsg (36-23-10, 82 points), who played on Wednesday night and lost in a shootout in Edmonton. Can the Flames bounce back from a tight loss to the Avalanche and put additional distance between themselves and the Kings?
The puck drops just after 7 p.m. MT. Catch all the action on Sportsnet West or Sportsnet 960 The Fan!
