Playoff FGD: Onto Round 1 (3:30pm MT, CBC/SN)

Folks, welcome to the 2020 Stanley Cup playoffs. After advancing through the qualifying round, the Calgary Flames have earned themselves a best-of-seven meeting with the Dallas Stars. The Stars didn’t quite shine during their round robin play, while the Flames looked superb against Winnipeg. Can the Flames ride their current wave of momentum into Game 1?

The puck drops for Game 1 at 3:30 p.m. MT on CBC and Sportsnet’s national feed (with Chris Cuthbert and Louie DeBrusk) and Sportsnet 960 The Fan (with Derek Wills and Peter Loubardias). Yeah, we know, it’s an afternoon game on a weekday. Just sneak out of work early. We won’t tell anybody.
