The Calgary Flames eye another statement win over the Edmonton Oilers as wounded Oilers struggle with goalie uncertainty. Can Michael Backlund’s red-hot line and a top-ranked penalty kill tilt the Battle of Alberta in Calgary’s favor?

We break down how injuries to Edmonton’s goaltending—highlighted by Connor Ingram’s recent call-up—and the relentless firepower of Connor McDavid set the stage for this crucial divisional showdown. The show explores Calgary’s surging December form, recent solid performances from Backlund, Blake Coleman, and Connor Zary, plus the Flames’ dominance in shorthanded goals. What strategies does Calgary use to contain McDavid’s scoring spree, and the historic context of Calgary seeking consecutive victories in Edmonton.

Will the Flames capitalize on Oilers’ health adversity and solidify their playoff ambitions before the holiday break?
