Everybody’s favorite rookie hails from Calgary, Alberta - and he gets to play in front of his hometown crowd tonight. Brayden Point will have some tickets reserved at the Saddledome. “Yeah, I’m sure I’ll be buying a lot. My first game in Calgary. I mean, a lot of people supported me. I’m sure they’d all want to come out and watch. It’d be pretty cool.” [Raw Charge]
As much as a visit to Calgary is meaningful to Point, it carries some significance for another Lightning player. Ben Bishop was almost traded to the Flames over the summer, but he insists that’s not on his mind.
