The Calgary Flames head out on the road with no urgency, up 3-1. The Flames are 2-5 on the road vs. a team with a winning home record. The only game in this series in which goalie Jonas Hiller didn't play well was the last one in Vancouver. After making 29 saves in Calgary's series-opening 2-1 victory, Hiller was pulled late in game two after allowing three goals on 29 shots. Vancouver is home and desperate to stay alive, sporting one of the best offenses in the NHL at #8 in scoring, #9 on the power play and even #2 in penalty killing. The Canucks are 14-6 against a team with a winning record and 4-1 in their last five home games. When these teams clash the home team is 4-1 and the Flames are 7-19 in the last 26 meetings in Vancouver. Take Vancouver.
