- The Flames held an optional pre-game skate so there were no line rushes for projections. These lines and defensive pairings are from practices earlier in the week & the game against the Oilers.

- Karlsson and Miikka Kiprusoff both practiced this morning with the former practicing in the starting goaltender's net. It appears Karlsson will get his second start of the season.
