The Calgary Flames aim to extend their winning streak to three games as they welcome the Chicago Blackhawks to the Scotiabank Saddledome. Following a strong 5-1 victory over Columbus, the atmosphere and team morale remain high.
Calgary has won its last two home games, outscoring opponents 10-2 during the past 120 minutes. Head Coach Ryan Huska noted improvements in the team’s play, suggesting they are beginning to exhibit qualities typical of a winning squad.
“They’re starting to do some things that are more indicative of a winning team. I still think we have a ways to go, but that’s a few areas, for sure, a huge step in the right direction. You give yourself a chance to win games when you’re disciplined like that.”
— Ryan Huska, Head Coach
After a slow start offensively early in the season, the Flames have shown progress, particularly in their home games. Scoring is well-distributed among players, with eight different skaters contributing to the last 12 home goals.
Building on their recent success and increased team discipline, the Flames hope to maintain their upward trend and secure another victory against the Blackhawks.
