The Calgary Flames two game road trip to the eastern time zone concludes today as they take on the Montreal Canadiens for the first time this season. The Flames are currently in second place in the Pacific division and can pass the Anaheim Ducks to pull into first place with a victory. The Ducks take on the Chicago Blackhawks at 6:30 tonight, so that first place stay could be short lived depending on the outcome of that contest.
The Canadiens are perhaps the most surprising team in the NHL thus far.
