Two struggling teams meet up in Calgary tonight when the Flames host the Carolina Hurricanes at the Scotiabank Saddledome. Calgary enters Thursday having lost two of three and the Flames were stung by the former face of their franchise in Tuesdays 2-1 loss against Jarome Iginla and the Boston Bruins. Iginlas return to Calgary was a triumphant one, as the Bruins overcame a 1-0 deficit with a pair of late goals to down the Flames. Reilly Smith potted the game-winner for Boston with 4:33 left to play, a mere 98 seconds after David Krejci recorded the equalizer with the Bruins on the power play. Iginla, the Flames all-time leader in goals (525), points (1,095) and games played (1,219), faced the club he spent 16 highly productive seasons with for the first time since Calgary traded its longtime captain to Pittsburgh during last Aprils trade deadline. The revered 36-year-old received a warm and rousing ovation from the home crowd during introductions. "It brought back a lot of great memories," Iginla said of his return. Jiri Hudler had the lone goal for Calgary, which received 22 saves from Reto Berra in a losing cause. "I think the best way to describe this is a lack of maturity," Flames head coach Bob Hartley said of his team allowing Boston to get back in the game in the third. It was the third loss in Calgarys last four home games, dropping the club to 5-7-3 at the Saddledome this season. This evenings game marks the first meeting between the Canes and Flames since Calgary posted a 7-6 home win on Dec. 6, 2011. Iginla scored twice for the Flames in that win. Calgary has taken five of seven from Carolina overall and the Hurricanes have dropped four straight and five of six at the Saddledome. Carolinas last win in Calgary came on Dec. 12, 2002. After consecutive losses to begin a four-game road trip, the Hurricanes hope to pick up a win in Calgary. The Hurricanes carried a three-game winning streak into this current trek, but lost 2-0 at Vancouver on Monday before dropping a 5-4 overtime decision the following night in Edmonton. However, Carolina did do a good job to even earn a point in Tuesdays setback, as they fell behind 4-1 to the Oilers before mounting a comeback. The Staal brothers -- Jordan and Eric -- each scored a goal to cut the deficit to 4-3 and Jeff Skinner tied it late in the third for Carolina. Eric Staals short-handed tally came 7:47 into the third period and Skinners tying marker was at the 14:46 mark. However, Jordan Eberle notched a power- play goal at 1:48 of OT to deliver the 5-4 victory for the hometown Oilers. "We showed some good jump battling back into the game," said Eric Staal. "Unfortunately, we had to kill a lot of penalties." In addition to goals from the Staals and Skinner, Carolina also received a tally from Tuomo Ruutu. Cam Ward took the loss after yielding all five goals on 29 shots. The loss dropped Carolina to 6-7-2 as the visiting team this season. The Canes will complete the swing Saturday in Phoenix before playing three of their next four in Raleigh.

Serves hit by her surgically repaired shoulder often missed the mark, resulting in 12 double-faults.In this, the final week of pre-season games, NHL general managers are watching closely to see if their underage prospects who are eligible to be sent back to junior are worthy of playing regular season games and occupying a spot on a 23-man roster. Meanwhile, Ryan Jankowski is just as intently watching those GMs, knowing their decisions made this week or next could complicate his job as Hockey Canadas chief scout and the assembling of Canadas national junior team for the 2015 World Junior Championship. Its early yet and just because (an underage) player starts the season in the NHL doesnt necessarily mean we wont get him (for the World Junior tourney), Jankowski said, but, yes, were keeping an eye on how all these kids are doing and how things will unfold with their NHL teams. Once we see where everyone is, we can start formulating a plan. The World Junior tourney is always a big deal, but its bigger than ever this year. For starters, Canada has not won a gold medal for four consecutive years, not yet as dire as the seven-year drought between 1998 and 2004 but disturbing nonetheless. Worse still, Canada is coming off back-to-back fourth-place finishes, an unprecedented medal-less stretch since Canada started its Program of Excellence for the 1982 WJC. Finally, this years tournament is being held in Montreal (preliminary round games for Team Canada) and Toronto (medal-round games) so everything about this years event is bound to be magnified on home soil in the countrys biggest city. I think theres a lot more focus this year (on underage players in NHL camps) because we have 11 eligible returnees from last years team, which is a lot more than usual, Jankowski said. How many of them well get, you just never know. The 1995 birth year is a particularly strong group in Canada and the expectation is those 19-year-olds will form the core of our team. Indeed, theres a lot to like about the 95s but thats a double-edged sword because its the NHL teams who are, to varying degrees, liking what they are seeing from the prospects in training camp right now. Team Canadas top candidates to be captain are Curtis Lazar and/or Sam Reinhart, but theres reason to believe both could start the NHL regular season with the Ottawa Senators and Buffalo Sabres, respectively, and get the nine-game trial treatment (if an underager is returned to junior having played nine or less games, his NHL contract slides to the next year). Lazar has had an outstanding camp in Ottawa. The Sens are going to want to see how he fares when the games count. By all accounts, Reinhart has had an okay camp and while its not a slam dunk hell play with Buffalo all season long, the notion of sending him back to junior for a fourth WHL season is not particularly appealing either. Hes going to have to prove hes not ready to play in the NHL and the true test of that will be to play some regular season games. When Canadas 95s won the 2012 Ivan Hlinka Memorial tourney, the top line was Nate MacKinnon between Jonathan Drouin and Lazar. There is, of course, no hope of getting MacKinnon, who (even though hes still junior eligible) is entrenched as a star on the Colorado Avalanche. On the bright side, though, draft-eligible returnee Connor McDavid is a given for Team Canada, so the No. 1 offensive centre spot is spoken for. Drouin will certainly start the season with the Tampa Bay Lightning, though hes sidelined for at least a couple of weeks with a broken bone in his hand. Three more key returnees for Team Canada included centre Bo Horvat, centre-winger Nic Petan and defenceman Josh Morrissey. Horvat would appear to have a legitimate shot to start the season with the Vancouver Canucks. Hes been getting better and better with each passing day in training camp and is likely to at least get a regular-season trial with Vancouver. Petan and Morrissey have shown well in Winnipeg Jet camp and theyre expected to play Monday night against Edmonton, but the sense seems to be both would benefit from another year in junior. Petan is offensively talented but needs to work on his defensive play to stay in the NHL. Morrissey is a talented puck mover and offensive threat but still needs to get quicker and stronger to be a fulltime NHLer. Big centre Frederick Gauthier is injured (cracked rib) and still technically with the Toronto Maple Leafs but he hasnt been participating in the Leafs main camp and its likely hell eventually end up back in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. Two other 1995-born returnees – netminder Zach Fucale (Montreal) and defenceman Chris Bigras (Colorado) – are already back in junior hockey. Fucale is a strong candidate to be Team Canadas No. 1 goalie. Bigras, who was deemed a bit of a disappointment at the Avalanche camp, is a returnee who is by no means guaranteed a spot on this years team. The only potential returnee we havent mentioned is defenceman Aaron Ekbblad, the 1996-born first overall pick of the Florida Panthers in the 2014 draft.dddddddddddd. Panther GM Dale Tallon has indicated the perfect-world plan is to keep Ekblad in Florida this season, but that isnt to say there are other young defencemen pushing for spots in Florida. Team Canada knows theres no guarantee it will get Ekblad, but that doesnt mean they can hope as there is a real dearth of high-quality right-hand shot defencemen. There are also a handful of high profile 1995-born players who didnt make last years national junior team that would be strong candidates to be on this years Team Canada - if they dont end up in the NHL, that is. Arizona Coyote winger Max Domi is in solid contention for an NHL roster spot and hell get more pre-season games this week to make his case to get a regular-season trial. Edmonton Oiler defenceman Darnell Nurse is going to get a long look in this weeks pre-season games, though with the Oilers having added more veterans to the blueline and youngsters Martin Marincin and Oscar Klefbom also making strong bids in direct competition with Nurse, it will be a battle. Still, the notion of Nurse getting a regular season trial isnt out of the question. Philadelphias towering defenceman Sam Morin remains is also still in the Flyer camp. New York Ranger third-rounder Anthony Duclair - the 50-goal man from the QMJHL - has played his way back into talk for Team Canada, but hes made an impression in NHL camp, too. With first-round speed and talent, Duclair scared off NHL scouts, and Hockey Canada, with some apparent attitude issues in his draft year, but he appears to have matured into an exciting offensive prospect. Hes had an intriguing camp with the Rangers and will play again for them tonight. Hes likely destined for junior, though the Rangers have had injury issues in camp. The Rangers being at the 50-contract limit could see Duclairs contract slide to next year. Jankowski and the Team Canada management group should have plenty of talented 1996-born NHL first-rounders who were drafted last June to choose from, but there are even some questions about where some of them will start this season. St. Louis Blue first-rounder Rob Fabbri has been outstanding and will play in the balance of the Blues pre-season games. St. Louis keeps waiting for him to play like an 18-year-old but as the level of competition rises, Fabbri hasnt faded as much hes elevated his play. The Blues are a veteran-laden, contending team and keeping an 18-year-old isnt their usual M.O. but theres been no denying the kid a long look. The Calgary Flames know in their heart of hearts the best place for first-rounder Sam Bennett to develop this season is probably in the Ontario Hockey League, but he was outstanding in a pre-season game last week and the Flames are dealing with a lot of injuries to forwards. So the upshot is Bennett will get into three pre-season games this week. How he fares in those will determine if he hangs in for a regular season trial. Carolina first-rounder Haydn Fleury started Hurricanes camp a little tentatively. Hes picked up the pace with each passing day, though the expectation is hes ultimately ticketed for a return to junior hockey. The same would appear to be true of New York Islander first-rounder Michael Dal Colle, who signed his entry-level deal over the weekend, and Anaheim first-rounder Nick Ritchie, who looked very good playing his off wing on a line with Fabbri and McDavid at Team Canadas summer camp. Having so many balls in the air with kids at NHL camps is to be expected, Jankowski said, but his evaluation process has been further complicated because so many prospective national junior team players are currently out of their junior teams lineups with multiple-week injuries, including forwards Nick Baptiste, Morgan Klimchuk, Jeremy Gregoire, Jake Virtanen and defenceman Shea Theodore, amongst others. Jankowksi and Team Canada have no control over injuries or NHL clubs decisions on underage players. They are, however, masters of their own destiny in terms of how they shape this years national junior squad. And after two years without a medal of any color, and no gold in the last four tournaments, the clear emphasis is now on selecting the best players with the most speed and skill, worrying less about composition of lines and roles and more about getting the most talented players and the deepest lineup. Even if the best and/or most talented players make an NHL roster to start the season, theres a long way to go until mid-December, when Team Canada has its final evaluation camp. A lot can happen between now and then, plus the real cut-off for getting an NHL player loaned to Team Canada is the NHL roster freeze the week before Christmas. Team Canada is aiming to be more flexible with select NHL loaned players, not insisting they need to be there for the full final evaluation camp. ' ' '
