With the brother vs. brother series tied at one win a piece, the Brent Sutter coached Calgary Flames roll into Los Angeles for their third meeting this season with Darryl Sutter's Kings (8 pm, CBC and Sportsnet 960). As the Flames look to extend their point streak to eight games, they'll also try to reel in their conference rivals who currently hold the Western Conference's final playoff spot.

Sometimes when you lose games in overtime, you should probably take the important point and move on, forgetting the 60 plus minutes prior to the result. On Thursday night in Dallas, you didn't see a whole lot from the Calgary Flames, but they used a third period Mike Cammalleri goal to push the game to even strength before Mike Ribeiro wired home his 12th of the season for a 3-2 Stars win.

The Calgary Flames have the chance to do something they haven't done all season tonight as they get set for another crucial road matchup, this time in Dallas (6:30 pm, TSN and Sportsnet 960). If Calgary is able to pick up a win at the American Airlines Center and couple with that with some more help on the out of town scoreboard, they'll move into a Western Conference playoff spot for the first time this season.

The Calgary Flames have scored 14 goals on Valentine's Day over the last two seasons, including five in a 5-1 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday night. On top of their success on Cupid's day, Calgary is also 6-0-2 since the calendar turned to the second month, moving them just a point back of the final playoff spot in the Western Conference. They are catching some bounces, riding a red hot goaltender, and most importantly, getting points.
FGD: Big Smoke

They call Toronto the Big Smoke for whatever reason, and the Maple Leafs will blow through Calgary tonight for their second of two meetings this season with the Calgary Flames (7 pm, Sportsnet West and Sportsnet 960). It's not like Toronto is on fire however, entering action tonight with losses in their last three games while the Flames look to continue a five game point streak.
