The Calgary Flames dressed a veteran-laden lineup against a young Vancouver Canucks squad on Wednesday evening and they lost. Tonight, they did the same thing against the Arizona Coyotes and won by a 4-2 score at the Scotiabank Saddledome.
The big difference? For arguably the first time this exhibition season, the Flames’ key players showed up for the majority of the contest with Sam Bennett (and his epic beard) leading the way for the home side.

The Flames got off to a bit of a sloppy start, taking three penalties in the opening period.
