Call it a deluxe, adding-injury-to-insult edition of a Gordie Howe Hat Trick. In addition to scoring a goal (two of them actually), setting up a couple of tallies and getting into a scrap on Saturday night, Calgary captain Jarome Iginla also managed to give the Edmonton Oilers a paper cut and then pour lemon juice on it.

*Technical difficulties in getting game highlights, so in lieu...*
Calgary Flames: 6 -- Boyd (2), Bourque [GWG], Phaneuf, Iginla (2)
Edmonton Oilers: 1 -- Gagner
For 28 years, neither the Calgary Flames, nor the Edmonton Oilers have managed to sweep the season series... until now! The Flames managed a six game season sweep over the "debacle of monumental proportions" in copper & blue, after a nine game winless skid of their own.

Surely there must be a way for both of the rag-tag Alberta clubs' losing streaks to continue beyond tonight's tilt at One of the The Many Houses Frankie Musil Built.
The Elias Sports Bureau tells us this is already the first National Hockey League contest in more than 22 years to feature a matchup of clubs on winless skids of at least nine games and, goshdarn it, why can't the fun carry on into February?
