CALGARY Authentic Stephen Johns Jersey , Alberta — Both the Calgary Flames and Winnipeg Jets skated to convincing wins over their respective opponents on Monday night.Now, the Flames (12-8-1) and Jets (12-5-2) will be looking to follow up on those victories when the two Western Conference foes clash at the Scotiabank Saddledome on Wednesday.Shortly after the Flames thumped the visiting Vegas Golden Knights 7-2 on Monday, the Jets put the finishing touches on their 6-3 triumph over the Canucks in Vancouver.Article continues below ...“The team that forgets about it wins tomorrow,” said Jets coach Paul Maurice after his team practiced in Calgary on Tuesday. “I don’t expect it to look anything like that, but I think it’s going to be a grinder. Both teams are coming in feeling good. Both teams have players that can defend and players who can play hard on the puck — even offensive players that’ll play hard on the puck, so I don’t think anybody’s putting up any of those kind of numbers or that volume of chances.”Winnipeg forward Mathieu Perreault said he and his teammates are heading into the big Western Conference matchup against the Flames as a confident group.“It should be a fun game,” Perreault said. “We like where our game’s at right now as well. We usually focus on what we do more than whoever we’re playing, but we’ve got to be aware of the firepower they have over there.”Perreault praised Winnipeg’s line of Patrik Laine Youth Tyler Pitlick Jersey , Kyle Connor and Brian Little, who combined for nine points against the Canucks.“They’re three great players. So we definitely expect them to be a dominant line for us and they expect that from themselves so it was nice to see them contribute,” Perreault said.Laine led the way with a hat trick, while Connor scored once and set up three others and Little had a goal and an assist.Meanwhile, Matthew Tkachuk scored twice and set up two others to lead Calgary’s offensive outburst against the Golden Knights, while Sean Monahan had two goals and one assist.“We want to be a tough team to beat at home and we want this to be a place where people don’t like coming in to and we want it to be a big advantage for us and I think right now we’re playing well,” said Tkachuk following Monday’s win over Vegas. “We’ll enjoy this win tonight, but we’ve got a really tough one on Wednesday.”After recording just one assist in his past five games Womens Tyler Seguin Jersey , Johnny Gaudreau broke out of his slump with a goal and three helpers — all in the first period — against the Golden Knights.“The past few games I haven’t been finding the net,” Gaudreau admitted. “I’ve been getting good looks — hitting posts, crossbars, getting some good chances, but it was nice to capitalize … and get rewarded in that department and get a huge win for our team.”Calgary coach Bill Peters liked what he saw from his top line of Gaudreau, Monahan and Elias Lindholm on Monday.“I just know they had a lot of poise with the puck, real good deception and some creativity,” Peters said. “All three of them have the ability to score and all three of them have the ability to make plays http://www.coyotesproshop.com/authentic-oliver-ekman-larsson-jersey , so they’re an unpredictable group to play against. I think they’re very comfortable playing with each other and they complement each other real well.” HELSINKI (AP) — NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said that the NHL is planning to play a season-opening game in Prague and another two games in Stockholm next season.Bettman, speaking before the Florida Panthers and the Winnipeg Jets play for the first of their two regular-season games in Finland on Thursday, said the league is planning to keep a presence in Europe in the future.The commissioner said the 23 regular-season games played in Europe since 2007 have been a “fantastic success.” As an example, he said the tickets for the two games between the Panthers and Jets at the 13,500-seat Hartwall Arena sold out in less than five minutes.Bettman did not specify the dates or teams for the games, which will take place in November 2019, saying plans have yet to be finalized.The second game between the Panthers and the Jets is scheduled for Friday.In October, the New Jersey Devils defeated the Edmonton Oilers 5-2 in Gothenburg http://www.bruinsshoponline.com/authentic-anders-bjork-jersey , Sweden.The future for the NHL’s presence at the next Winter Olympics, in Beijing in 2022, is not bright after Bettman said there’s an overwhelming view in the NHL that the Olympics are “terribly disruptive” to the season and that the previous NHL participation proved “difficult and less than satisfactory.”
