| The Flames have to bounce back from last week’s lost to Arizona. The Sharks are coming off a 7-0 demolishing of the Leafs. Ferland is getting a shot on the top line with Johnny and Sean. Giordano has 4 goals and 8 assists (+5) over the past nine games. Prediction Flames win 5-2 (Gaudreau, Ferland, Brodie, Bennett & Stajan) |
