A little more than 24 hours after announcing a blockbuster trade, the new-look
Calgary Flames host the
Philadelphia Flyers as part of the NHL's four-game schedule on Monday night.
Calgary acquired forwards
Matt Stajan,
Niklas Hagman and defensemen
Ian White and
Jamal Mayers on Sunday morning from the
Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for defensemen
Dion Phaneuf and
Keith Aulie, as well as forward
Fredrik Sjostrom. The Flames had lost nine in a row before earning a 6-1 win against Edmonton on Saturday night. Monday's game against the Flyers begins at 9:30 p.m. ET.
In a game that will be televised nationally in both the U.S. (Versus) and Canada (TSN2, RDS), the
Pittsburgh Penguins return to the ice at 7 p.m. ET as they face the
Buffalo Sabres at Mellon Arena. In a rematch of the last two Stanley Cup Finals, the defending champs earned a 2-1 shootout win against the
Detroit Red Wings on Sunday afternoon.
Thirty minutes later, the
Florida Panthers host the
Anaheim Ducks at the BankAtlantic Center. Anaheim also made a deal with Toronto on Sunday, as the Ducks acquired
Jason Blake and
Vesa Toskala from the Leafs in exchange for
Jean-Sebastien Giguere.
In the final game of the night, the
Edmonton Oilers, who went winless in January and have lost 13 games in a row, take on the
Carolina Hurricanes at Rexall Place at 9:30 p.m. ET. Carolina (19-28-7) has won four in a row and is making a desperate attempt to get back in the playoff race in the Eastern Conference.
