For those Flames fans who might be interested in real hockey rather than the skills competition today, the QC Flames/Toronto Marlies game is available on The Score at 2pm Calgary time. It's the only time this year the farm squad will be on television, so take it when you can get it. Curtis McElhinney has been putting up good numbers since being sent back down and Grant Stevenson continues to climb the AHL scoring chart. Also, this represents a rare opportunity to see just how bad Kris Chucko is (still). I also plan to keep on an eye on Van Der Gulik, Prust and Matt Pelech as much as possible (Ramholt's a lost cause at this point I think).
Prediction - I know next to nothing about the Marlies or the AHL level of competition in general so this is pure bias. Flames 5, Marlies 2. Stevenson (2), Kolanos, Germyn and Prust for QC. Errr...Justin Pogge (2) for the Marlies (?).
Go baby Flames.
