Players to target: John Gaudreau, Sean Monahan, and Michael Ferland
The Calgary Flames' top line will be popular, but they have one of the best matchups of the night on the road against an Ottawa Senators team that is on a back-to-back. Ottawa has allowed the 7th-most Scoring Chances Against per 60 minute and 10th-most High-Danger Chances Against per 60 minutes over the last month, so a Flames top line that is excellent at creating chances is a tough matchup for them.
Monahan's line has a 53.5 Corsi For Percentage, 32.2 Scoring Chances For per 60 minutes, and 14.4 High-Danger Chances For per 60 minutes at even strength. Facing a backup goaltender in Mike Condon and the league's 28th-ranked penalty kill, the Flames' top line rivals the Wild as the best spot on the night.
