Players To Watch:

Calgary Flames – Yegor Sharangovich made his season debut on Saturday night in a 5-3 loss to Winnipeg after battling an early season injury. Sharangovich is coming off his best season where he had career highs in goals (31), assists (28), and points (59).

Vegas Golden Knights – Mark Stone is leading the NHL in points with 17 through only nine games. Stone has always been an elite two way forward but injuries have prevented him from producing big numbers offensively. This could be the year that changes.
