While the Flames chief playoff rivals chase Jeff Carter this evening, Calgary will have to settle for trying to extract some points from the surging Coyotes. Phoenix added an ex-Blue Jacket of their own in Antoine Vermette recently and he’ll probably feature in their top-6 tonight.

The Flames will also add a top-6 forward, albeit via the infirmary rather than the trade route. Glencross will slide back into the line-up and will be a welcome addition, given the fact the team has been running with Tom Kosotpolous in a scoring role recently.

Glencross was the Flames leading goal scorer when he went down with a knee injury, but I’m not sure we should expect him to pick up where he left off. After all, his 18 goals were had off the abck off a personal career high 24% SH%. That’s amongst the league leaders this season and well clear of even the most accurate shooters in the NHL. Meaning: he’s not going to do this forever, but let’s hope it continues for a bit longer.
