The Calgary Flames and Vancouver Canucks are set to meet for the first time this season with the two sides preparing for a preseason tilt tonight.
The Flames have been perfect so far in the preseason, defeating the Seattle Kraken 6-1 on Sunday before defeating the Oilers in a pair of split-squad games on Monday. The Canucks, meanwhile, won their first preseason game versus the Kraken at Rogers Arena last night.
The Flames and Canucks will face off against one another at the Abbotsford Centre, which serves as the home of the AHL’s Abbotsford Canucks.
The game won’t be televised, but you can stream it for free online through each team’s website: Canucks.com or CalgaryFlames.com.
Tonight, we honour Truth and Reconciliation in Abbotsford. 🧡

The Flames enter tonight’s game with an intriguing lineup that features many players in the running to earn a spot on the opening-night roster. Headlining the forwards in that regard is Matt Coronato. Other young players on the bubble playing tonight include Jakob Pelletier and Cole Schwindt.
The back end will also feature players battling for spots, including Tyson Barrie, who agreed to a professional tryout offer (PTO) earlier in the month and is hoping to earn a contract. Dustin Wolf will be starting in net.
