Jakob Pelletier a réussi le but déterminant au troisième vingt, mercredi, guidant les Flames de Calgary vers un gain de 6-3 face aux Coyotes de l'Arizona.

Holmstrom a pu décocher un tir du côté de la mitaine et offrir une avance de 2-1 aux Islanders à 9 : 57 du troisième tiers. Il a gardé la rondelle lors d’un deux contre un et a fait mouche du côté rapproché. Calgary a toutefois nivelé le score avec deux buts en 62 secondes, avant le deuxième entracte. Il s’est dirigé dans l’enclave et a fait une courte passe à Lucic, qui a obtenu son cinquième but de la saison. Le but a été accordé à Keller. Pelletier a fait de l’excellent travail sur ce but-là également.

The Calgary Flames will be honouring one of their franchise's greatest players with a special jersey when they take to the ice next week.

“I’m very proud of that and try to follow his example in the way I live.” In Calgary, Iginla had 525 goals and 570 assists in his career. “Created to honour the Iginla surname, which translates to big/mysterious tree in Yoruba, Elvis Iginla [Jarome’s father]’s native language.”

The Calgary Flames travel to meet the Arizona Coyotes at Mullett Arena Wednesday night.

To emphasize the Flames scoring even more, the Over is a perfect 5-0 in the past five games when Calgary’s opponent allows two or fewer goals in its previous game. Calgary has also lit the lamp three or more times in 13 of the past 18 games. However, the home side has won nine of the past 11 in this series. In addition, Calgary has lost five in a row against losing teams, while going just 2-7 in the past nine games against Central Division foes. It also failed to cover on the PL as a huge favorite (-328) in the first meeting with Arizona at the Scotiabank Saddledome on December 5. Like the Coyotes, the Flames have played a lot of close games lately. Arizona will counter with Karel Vejmelka (15-17-5, 3.31 GAA, .904 SV%, 3 SO), and he is confirmed to start. Coincidentally, the first time these teams met, we had a one-goal game. With so many games going into the extra frame or beyond, it has resulted in seven of the Yotes last eight games decided by a single tally. Calgary squandered a golden opportunity in its most recent three-game homestand, going 1-2 with an overtime win against the New York Rangers on Saturday night. Calgary won the first meeting in Alberta by a 3-2 score on December 5. The Coyotes have made it interesting, win or lose lately.

The Calgary Flames aim to remain in the playoff chase as they begin a three-game road trip on Wednesday against the Arizona Coyotes.

Le vétéran des Flames de Calgary Jonathan Huberdeau s'assure que le jeune Jakob Pelletier s'adapte correctement à la Ligue nationale de hockey (LNH).

Pelletier a expliqué qu’ils se parlent en anglais sur la surface glacée, sauf quand il cherche certains mots. Dès mon arrivée, il m’a dit de juste jouer.» «C’est juste d’être là s’il a besoin de toi et de l’amener souper. De voir un gars plus âgé comme Huby prendre soin de moi, c’est complètement fou.» C’était super et c’est un joueur vedette en plus. Tu lui montres des choses et tu essaies qu’il soit confortable», a expliqué Huberdeau, dont les propos ont été rapportés par le réseau TSN.

Trois rencontres sont prévues au calendrier régulier de la LNH en ce mercredi 22 février. Voici les éléments de ces matchs qui vont retenir notre attention.

Les 22 parties de plus d'un point de Robertson le placent au troisième rang parmi les joueurs nés aux États-Unis cette saison, derrière l'attaquant des Panthers de la Floride Matthew Tkachuk (26) et le joueur de centre des Devils du New Jersey Jack Hughes (25). L'affrontement contre les Blackhawks arrive donc au bon moment pour Dallas, puisque Chicago (18-32-5) est 30e au classement général de la LNH. Kane a obtenu au moins un point dans ses 10 derniers matchs avec les Blackhawks au American Airlines Center (deux buts, 10 passes). Il a réussi un doublé dans un gain de 6-4 contre les Blackhawks le 23 novembre dernier. Une chose est certaine : les Islanders (29-24-7) vont obtenir de nombreuses chances de marquer si la défense des Jets (35-21-11) est aussi poreuse que lundi. Nelson a réussi un doublé dans une victoire de 4-2 contre les Penguins de Pittsburgh lundi, deux jours après que les Bruins de Boston eurent mis fin à fin sa série de 12 rencontres avec au moins un point.

Keller was penalized for tripping at 7:09 of the second. In the first minute of the second period, the Flames' Mikael Backlund went off for tripping, the first penalty assessed in the game.

Nick Schmaltz, Clayton Keller and Maccelli scored goals for the Coyotes, who saw their nine-game points streak (5-0-4) come to an end. Milan Lucic, Elias Lindholm and Tyler Toffoli also scored for the Flames, who opened a three-game swing as they chase the top eight in the Western Conference playoff race.

The Calgary Flames are in the playoff hunt, but are currently on the outside looking in. So what will GM Brad Treliving do? Sonny Sachdeva looks at the GM's ...

If they can, perhaps that gives Calgary's offence enough of a boost to begin climbing the standings. In this case, it was the winger's connection to Lindholm (his cousin) and Jacob Markstrom, the trio having grown up together in Gavle, Sweden. Much of that squad has remained in place, aside from the two key pieces up front, with Huberdeau and Kadri essentially replacing Gaudreau and Tkachuk. The Flames GM identified his man and went out and got him, a move that's still paying off, with Toffoli currently leading the club in both points and goals. This time last year, the Flames were all in on a deep playoff run, the club sitting first in its division and an off-season of potential changes looming. And in Jarnkrok's addition specifically, Treliving again showed a preference to add players who have an extra layer of connection with the club, something that could potentially lead to an ideal fit and a greater impact. In 2021, the Flames found themselves on the other side of the line. Toffoli was coming off a dominant year that had seen him put up 28 goals in 52 games, and play a key role in Montreal’s march to the Cup Final. While Treliving tends to do much of his dealing in the off-season, he's been known to make waves on deadline day, too. [32 Thoughts column](https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/32-thoughts-the-latest-on-jakob-chychrun-and-the-nhl-trade-market/) that Calgary is on the hunt for a winger to help out Huberdeau. Take a look back through the GM's history and he's shown he has no qualms with working the trade market to shake up his squad. The question is whether Treliving opts to stand pat, or whether he feels his club has enough potential for a meaningful run if everything begins to fall into place.

The Calgary Flames were the better team for much of their Wednesday night visit to Mullett Arena to play the Arizona Coyotes. They out-shot the Coyotes handily ...

The Flames continued to press, and retook the lead with two goals scored 24 seconds apart. His back-hand shot eluded Vejmelka’s glove and gave the Flames a 5-3 lead. The Flames were all over the Coyotes for awhile early in the game, and in the second, but they couldn’t extend their lead. The Flames tied things back up slightly later, as Tyler Toffoli made a great read, firing the puck between a defender’s legs. But rather than roll over, the Flames battled back with two goals scored 62 seconds apart. First, the Flames had a power play that got some looks but couldn’t bury any of them. The Coyotes pulled ahead in the second period with two goals in the span of 1:35. The Coyotes fired the puck on net and Tanev, trying to sweep the rebound away from the net, inadvertently swept it into the net. Tyler Toffoli rang a shot off the crossbar. Lucic’s shot beat Karel Vejmelka to give the visitors a 1-0 lead. The Calgary Flames were the better team for much of their Wednesday night visit to Mullett Arena to play the Arizona Coyotes. Duehr cut to the net, then passed to Milan Lucic in the slot.

While magic has followed the Arizona Coyotes recently, but the effects wore off Wednesday night at Mullett Arena against the Calgary Flames.

With just seven defensemen in the game, the Coyotes took another blow to the depth when Josh Brown exited during the game with an upper body injury. “After that, he’s human and (the shots) were coming from a little bit of everywhere. Vejmelka had a rough start to the third period when he was knocked down by both Coyotes defenseman J.J. A blunder from Tanev at the net was what gave Keller his 24th goal when the puck deflected off him and Tanev knocked it in at 9:31. Tyler Toffoli’s miss off the post in the Coyotes zone trickled over to Matias Maccelli. We cannot focus on the end result, we are capable of being better than we are lately.”

On Wednesday, the Flames were sitting in ninth in the Western Conference standings, four points back of a playoff spot.

It’s just, right near the end, it gets real busy.” But it’s sort of the finishing at both nets.” The counterargument, of course, is that the right acquisition could be a game-changer in their push for a playoff spot — and from there, the Western Conference feels wide open. Going back to training camp, it’s no secret that the Flames were angling to add a forward, specifically a capable lamp-lighter. I think we’re prepared for all the different scenarios and we’ll just continue to have discussions and monitor. Around this time of year, Treliving always stresses that you “take your cues from your team.” With deadline-day just over a week away, the annual trade buzzer set to sound next Friday at 1 p.m. You get a pretty good sense of what everybody is doing. It will be a sigh-of-relief for many fans to hear that Treliving told Postmedia before departing for Arizona: “I haven’t given much thought to moving a first-round pick right now.” Or perhaps leaving his wheeling-and-dealing-mobile in park. Based on where his team is at, Treliving might wind up in that trading traffic jam. “My philosophy at the deadline has always been the same, where if you are looking to add, you’d like to do it a little sooner rather than later,” Treliving said.

Looking at NHL playoff probabilities to see where the Calgary Flames' postseason odds sit, including HockeyViz, MoneyPuck, and more.

The Flames’ destiny is in their own hands; with two more games against the Wild this season, these are absolutely must-win games. This model has favoured the Flames for the whole season, and is just now starting to drop them down the projected standings. They list the Flames at just 39% to make the playoffs, and the Wild at 72%. They give the Flames a 50% chance of making the playoffs, one of the more favourable figures out there. The Wild are at 71% and likely higher with their win last night over the Kings. However, take this with a sizeable grain of salt; MoneyPuck has the Wild at 72%, currently the ninth best odds in the West.

The players talk about the important role veteran leadership will have to play if the Calgary Flames are going to stay in this playoff race.

Calgary Flames versus Arizona Coyotes game recap and data visualisations including game events and shot locations. February 22, 2023.

Fortunately, the Flames would benefit off of a power play goal from Elias Lindholm, followed quickly by a Tyler Toffoli tying goal. After Milan Lucic opened the scoring just five minutes into the game, the Arizona Coyotes would score three straight goals in just eight shots on net. Out of a playoff position by four points, facing a shorthanded Coyotes team that was riding a nine-game point streak, the Flames simply needed to get two points an move on.

Corsi King – Mikael Backlund (84.65%) continues to feast upon any team that is in the Bedard sweepstakes. It's not even particularly close in terms of match-up ...

The Coyotes had points going in 9 straight games before the game against the Flames, taking care of business to this level against them was what you like to see in terms of compete level. The entire roster finished on the positive side of the shot attempt battle – something you could sense brewing as early as the first period. Speed on the wing in this game is a prime ingredient in most champions – it overwhelms the opposition defence when the winger gets in on the forecheck swiftly. You always get it from the Backlund (82.37% // 66.76%) line, it’s really nice to see it from every single other one too. The show will be live on When the Coyotes only get 14 shots on net having it be this one sided isn’t really a surprise. Weegar (77.61%) and Tanev (76.30%) have had their fair share as the top two defenceman here, but this is the first time playing on separate pairings. A tremendous sign as the Flames top 4 excelled in this match. They get an invigoration of energy from the rookies in the lineup and drive themselves back to victory. Corsi King – Mikael Backlund (84.65%) continues to feast upon any team that is in the Bedard sweepstakes. The Flames wingers were relentless in pursuit of the puck tonight no matter where it was on the ice. From the drop of the puck Calgary dominated possession of the puck and barely let any chances come back their way.

Assessing how the Calgary Flames can use their cap space to acquire draft picks at the upcoming 2023 NHL Trade Deadline.

He has a cap hit of 3.1M, and Boston is looking to incentivize a team to take his cap, so they can make a move for Gavrikov. If the Flames want to salvage some draft capital, getting creative in helping other teams with their cap troubles is a great way to do so. They could then play him for the rest of 2022–23 before he becomes an unrestricted free agent, or retain 50% on his contract and ship him out to a contender for another draft pick. The Flames could also simply take on another team’s bad contract, like Craig Smith in Boston. We saw this in play with the Flames in the summer, where they had to attach a first-round draft pick to How funny would it be if the Flames acted as a third party in a Monahan deal? So, the Flames could acquire Smith and his $3.1M cap hit, and a draft pick for doing so. Teams are getting more and more creative with how they manage cap space, so let’s look at some ways the Flames can get in the action. Now, they buy a 2025 fourth-rounder, so they not only replace the pick they gave up for Reaves, but also move up a round. We saw this in action this week, when the Minnesota Wild ate $1.875M of Ryan O’Reilly’s salary in exchange for a 2025 fourth-rounder. In fact, a decent amount of the fanbase has now turned their attention to [selling at the deadline](https://thewincolumn.ca/2023/02/21/the-flames-should-sell-their-pending-ufas-ahead-of-the-2022-23-nhl-trade-deadline/), in an attempt to salvage some assets used in last year’s acquisitions. Yesterday, we saw the Chicago Blackhawks take on Nikita Zaitsev and his $4.5M cap hit for this year and next, in exchange for a 2023 second-round, and a 2026 fourth-round pick.

Calgary Flames GM Brad Treliving hasn't given thought to whether he'll move his first-round pick with the trade deadline approaching.

That gives you hope that there’s another level or two we can raise that’s going to help us have some more team success.” Calgary trails the Wild by two points for the second wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the West with Minnesota holding a game at hand.

Flames GM Brad Treliving wants to see how his team performs before making any roster moves by the trade deadline.

Given Schenn’s age and role (a third pair guy on a contending team) it may be more realistic for Treliving to get him locked up before the end of the season. Louis Blues left wing Ivan Barbashev, for example, is a name that would fit the script as to what the Flames are looking for. But given the Flames’ inconsistency and being 4-4-2 in their last 10 games, I can’t blame Treliving for having trepidation to relinquish assets for a team that may not even get in.

Golden Knights erase third-period deficit to edge Flames 4-3.

Marchessault took a third minor late in the frame and the Flames added a couple more shots to their total, but a successful kill seemed to breathe new life into the homeside. The Flames opened up a two-goal advantage only 1:24 into the second, thanks to Calgary's very own 'French Connection' of Pelletier and Huberdeau. "I thought we played really well in the first ... With Shea Theodore off serving holding infraction, Pelletier banged home a loose puck to score his third of the season and second in as many games. The Flames were playing a nearly 'perfect' road game, until a questionable goaltender interference penalty was levied on Walker Duehr. But if you want to make the playoffs, we need these points." "We had a lot of shots in the first, created some chances. The Flames got caught on a bad change in OT and Jack Eichel took full advantage, re-grouping in the neutral zone before setting up Jonathan Marchessault for a clean look off the rush. We've got to keep playing and score the fourth goal so we get a bigger lead. Obviously, you're going to be a bit tired in the third. But in the third, we had, what, one shot? But the Golden Knights rallied with a pair in the third period before Alex Pietrangelo struck less than a minute into overtime, giving the hometown team a 4-3 victory on Thursday at T-Mobile Arena.

Those goals sandwiched a power-play score by Eichel with 5:33 left in the second. This was Backlund's fourth game in a row with a goal, and he has seven points in his past five games. The Flames took better advantage of their chances in the second period to go up 3-1.

Alex Pietrangelo scored on a rebound 52 seconds into overtime to complete the Vegas Golden Knights' rally from two goals down in the third period to beat ...

A 3-1 game, you like to take that as far into the period as you can.” Calgary had just one shot on goal in the final period of regulation. “I wasn’t sure in the first period we felt that way.” Calgary dominated early taking 16 of the first 18 shots on goals, outshooting the Knights 18-8 overall in the first period. Pietrangelo was there to knock in the puck. Jakob Pelletier, Jonathan Huberdeau and Mikael Backlund had goals for the Flames.

The Calgary Flames blow a 3-1 lead, fall to the Vegas Golden Knights in tough Overtime loss at T-Mobile Arena.

After Thursday’s heartbreaker, the Flames are now sitting nine points behind the Golden Knights in Pacific Division standings. “I think we had a really good start, dug in, and I think fatigue caught up with us a little bit,” Sutter told reporters at T-Mobile Arena. In the first minute of sudden-death, Jonathan Marchessault sizzled a shot off the post and Alex Pietrangelo arrived to clean up the leftovers. He added an assist in the early stages of the second. The kid must have received that message. “He is relentless on the puck. For the recent call-up, it was his second multi-point showing in as many nights. “If you want to win here, you have to play for 60 minutes,” Flames rookie forward Jakob Pelletier told reporters at T-Mobile Arena. In fact, this was as close as they’ve ever come to nabbing a victory. You could blame some sort of curse. For the Flames, a five-year funk continues. Article content
