Status report
Vladar starting is the only expected change for the Flames from a 5-2 win against the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday. … DeSmith is fine after being evaluated for an upper-body injury, coach Mike Sullivan said. The goalie participated in an optional morning skate after being held out of practice Tuesday for precautionary reasons.
