CALGARY, AB -- Heading into tonight's game against the Edmonton Oilers, Calgary Flames' head coach Glen Gulutzan has made a few alterations to his defensive pairings.
Gulutzan has run through a variety of pairings throughout the last month in order to develop a firm grasp on his defence corps' strengths and weaknesses.
"We're going to get a different match-up at home so we'll look at some different pairings," Gulutzan explained after Thursday's skate at the Scotiabank Saddledome. "Right through training camp we've said ... those pairs, you can watch them practice but that's not necessarily how we'll play.
