Calgaryare inconsistent of late. They celebrated success in two of their previous five outings. The Flames recorded confident victories over New Jersey (6:3) and Vancouver (5:2). Forward Tkachuk has chalked up six points in those two games.
The Flames also had a close game against Buffalo, but lost in overtime (0:1). Calgary should have defeated San Jose at home, but failed to maintain their advantage and conceded twice in the last 20 minutes (3:4).
Arizona have suffered three defeats in a row. In the last game, they yielded to Seattle with a score of 2:4, demonstrating terrible defensive play. Before that, the Coyotes lost to San Jose (2:4) and Pittsburgh (1:4).
