Calgary Flames News & Notes:

The Flames have won three games in a row and are charging up the Pacific Division standings to compete for a top three finish. Calgary has a three point lead on the Canucks, and also have a game in hand.

Winnipeg Jets News & Notes:

Winnipeg is 3-2 in their last five games, with the Avalanche making a blockbuster trade this week, will the Jets start looking at making moves? While the Avalanche may have ‘downgraded’ in sense of losing Rantanen, they gained two players that’ll factor in their success for two seasons AND gave themselves more cap flexibilty for another trade.
