NHL *MIDNIGHT MADNESS* Flames/Canucks
Play: Vancouver Canucks
Rating: 8*

The Calgary Flames have opened the season with a pair of losses in a home-and-home series with the Oilers. The lost 5-3 at home last night and I think they're in trouble as they travel to B.C. to take on the Vancouver Canucks Saturday night. While the Flames will be playing their third contest in four nights, this will be Vancouver's first game of the season. The team will surely be 100 percent motivated to come out and put on a show in front of the home town crowd, and this looks like a more than fair price on the home team.
