<p>After beating Tampa Bay on Saturday, the <strong>Calgary Flames (12-14-5, 29 points)</strong> seek to finish off their brief homestand with a sweep of the state of Florida when they host the <strong>Florida Panthers (18-10-2, 38 points)</strong> on Monday night. In case you may have forgotten, there are a few former Flames players on the Panthers roster, so this could be an oddly emotionally-charged game for both teams.</p>

<p></p>
<h2><strong>The Flames</strong></h2>
<p>Projected lines courtesy Daily Faceoff:</p>
<p>Mangiapane &#8211; Lindholm &#8211; Sharangovich<br />
Zary &#8211; Kadri &#8211; Pospisil<br />
Huberdeau &#8211; Backlund &#8211; Coleman<br />
Greer &#8211; Ruzicka &#8211; Dube</p>
<p>Weegar &#8211; Andersson<br />
Hanifin &#8211; Tanev<br />
Gilbert &#8211; DeSimone</p>
<p>We&#8217;re projecting Jacob Markstrom to start in goal (based on reports from morning skate), returning from a seven-game absence due to injury, backed up by Dan Vladar. The projected extras are Jordan Oesterle and Walker Duehr.</p>
<p>This is the 13th game in the Flames &#8220;gauntlet&#8221; run, featuring 15 games in rapid-fire progression against a lot of good hockey teams. In the previous 12 games, they&#8217;re 5-5-2. Aside from one of their meetings with Minnesota, the Flames have played 11 rock-solid hockey games. They&#8217;ve found ways to lose from time to time, but for the most part they&#8217;ve played well enough that you can squint and picture a group that could get better results if they had slightly more skill in their lineup.</p>
<p>Yegor Sharangovich has scored goals in five consecutive games. Keep an eye on him, as well as former Panthers Jonathan Huberdeau and MacKenzie Weegar.</p>
<h2><strong>The Panthers<br />
</strong></h2>
<p>Projected lines courtesy Daily Faceoff:</p>
<p>R0drigues &#8211; Barkov &#8211; Reinhart<br />
Verhaeghe &#8211; Bennett &#8211; Tkachuk<br />
Luostarinen &#8211; Stenlund &#8211; Cousins<br />
Lomberg &#8211; Lorentz &#8211; Lockwood</p>
<p>Forsling &#8211; Ekblad<br />
Mikkola &#8211; Montour<br />
Ekman-Larsson &#8211; Kulikov</p>
<p>We&#8217;re projecting Anthony Stolarz to start in net, backed up by Sergei Bobrovsky. Their lone healthy extra is Josh Mahura.</p>
<p>The Panthers beat Edmonton by a 5-1 score on Saturday night, snapping a brief two-game losing skid where they were shut out by Seattle and Vancouver. But the Panthers are a team that&#8217;s generally found ways to string wins together throughout the season – 18 wins over 30 games says they&#8217;ve earned their record and reputation. They&#8217;re not the most stout defensive team in the league, but they&#8217;re deep, fast and talented.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re sure that the trio of former Flames – Matthew Tkachuk, Sam Bennett and Ryan Lomberg – will receive a warm welcome back to Calgary.</p>
