CALGARY Alex Tuch Jersey Kids , Alberta — The Calgary Flames will get their captain back for Wednesday’s game against the Philadelphia Flyers at the Scotiabank Saddledome as they look to rebound from Sunday’s 1-0 road loss to the Edmonton Oilers.Defenseman Mark Giordano was suspended for two games for kneeing forward Mikko Koivu late in Calgary’s 2-0 win at home over the Minnesota Wild last Thursday.Subsequently, the 35-year-old veteran was forced to watch from the press box as his teammates skated to a 5-2 victory over the Nashville Predators on Saturday at the Saddledome before losing to their provincial rivals in Edmonton the next night.Article continues below ...“Knowing that I couldn’t play, that was the right thing to do, go watch up from up top (and) see some of the things you don’t see from ice level,” said Giordano, who has three goals and 26 assists in 29 games with the Flames this season.“Obviously, you would have much rather played. Hopefully, looking back in a couple months http://www.officialknightsproshop.com/authentic-adidas-brad-hunt-jersey , this is a little, few-day break that got my juice back. I’ll take some rest and hopefully it’ll help out in the long run.”His teammates are also hoping that Giordano will help the Flames (19-10-2) return to the form that saw them win five games in a row before losing to the Oilers.“He’s been huge for us, probably our best player this season,” forward Elias Lindholm said. “He’s one of the best defensemen in the league, so when you get one of those guys back it’s going to help the team. He’s a great leader on and off the ice as well.”Flames coach Bill Peters is also happy to have his captain back to lead the charge against the Flyers (12-13-3).“I think he’s going to be refreshed and excited about getting back out there and playing again,” Peters said. “We’re happy to have him back.“It slots everybody in the right spots. Our power play looked a little out of sync without him, and now we’ll get him back on that first unit and we’ll get (Noah Hanifin) to the second unit. I think everything will be a little bit more familiar for those guys.”After going 2-0-1 in the first three games of December, the Flyers suffered a disappointing 7-1 road loss to the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday.Center Sean Couturier will likely make his return for the Flyers against the Flames after sitting out Philadelphia’s 6-2 road win over the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday as well as the loss in Winnipeg the next night.“I think it was just more cautious Cody Eakin Jersey ,” Couturier said. “I probably could have played through it, but it’s something that — at this time of year — you want to be smart with and not battle through pain, through injuries for the rest of the year. I think it was just smart to take the back-to-back off and get a few days here of skating and practice and hopefully be back (on Wednesday).”At practice on Tuesday in Calgary, Couturier centered a line between Jakub Voracek on the right wing and Michael Raffl on the left wing.“I’m very excited,” Raffl said of getting the opportunity to move up to Philadelphia’s second line. “Jakey is an unreal player to play with, so strong on the puck and he’s going to find you. It’s just a matter of putting the puck finally in the net there somehow. Couts, up the middle, is excellent defensively and a great all-around player Youth Colin Miller Jersey , so I’m very happy.” ST. LOUIS (AP) — One year ago, Robert Thomas was starring in Buffalo for Team Canada in the IIHF World Junior Championship. Now, he is showcasing his skills against Buffalo for much higher stakes.Thomas had a goal and an assist and Jake Allen made 30 saves to lead the St. Louis Blues to a 4-1 victory over the Sabres on Thursday night.“It kind of feels like it’s been a whole whirlwind and now I ended up here,” Thomas said.“It’s just a dream come true.”Jay Bouwmeester, Pat Maroon and Ryan O’Reilly scored for the Blues.Jack Eichel scored his 15th goal of the season in the second period for the Sabres.Thomas scored his third goal of the season by swatting the rebound of a shot by Vince Dunn underneath Carter Hutton, who inadvertently knocked it into his net with his elbow.“I know I kind of whacked it underneath him,” Thomas said. “I just heard the ref yell goal and I kind of put my hands up.”Hutton stopped 28 of 32 shots in his first appearance against St. Louis after spending the previous two seasons with the Blues. He lost his third consecutive start and fell to 13-11-2 on the season and 0-3-3 against his former teammates.“Obviously, I think I have to be better Calvin De Haan Jersey Womens ,” Hutton said.“It’s one of those things. I think I’m real close and playing well, but four is just unacceptable.”Allen improved to 13-10-4. He has won five of his last seven starts and improved to 6-1-0 against Buffalo.“He’s giving us a chance to win every night,” Blues interim coach Craig Berube said about his starting goaltender. “He’s aggressive. He’s challenging. He’s confident right now and we’re playing good in front of him, too.”Bouwmeester pushed the lead to 2-0 10:01 into the second period. He one-timed a feed from David Perron and scored his first goal since Feb. 13, 2018, at Nashville.Maroon added some insurance when he backhanded a pass from Thomas past Hutton while positioned behind the goal line. It was his third goal of the season.O’Reilly put the game out of reach when he scored his team-leading 14th goal of the season late in the third period. O’Reilly was making his first appearance against Buffalo since the Sabres traded him to St. Louis during the offseason. He had played three seasons and 224 games with Buffalo.“It’s a big game for us in general, coming off the break and trying to get back into the hunt here,” O’Reilly said. “It’s a big game Womens Deryk Engelland Jersey , especially against a team like that being traded from, it always means a bit more. It feels really good to win that one.”Eichel scored on the power play 17:25 into the second period. The goal was Eichel’s 10th in 10 games and the first of his career against the Blues. Montreal and Florida are the only two teams Eichel has not scored against.Buffalo traveled to St. Louis the morning of the game because of the NHL’s holiday break from Dec. 24-26.“Obviously, it’s not an easy day for us in terms of traveling, getting here, and the schedule,” Eichel said. “But I think that as a group we probably should’ve been a little more mature about the situation and just given ourselves a better chance to win.”NOTES: St. Louis LW Robby Fabbri missed his 10th consecutive game with an upper body injury. Blues interim coach Craig Berube said before the game that Fabbri is physically ready to return to the lineup. . Buffalo has not won in St. Louis since Dec. 27, 2009. .
