Flames and Flyers Set to Ignite Wells Fargo Center

As the Calgary Flames prepare to face off against the Philadelphia Flyers at the Wells Fargo Center, fans are eager to see if their team can continue their recent trend of success. The Flames have been on fire lately, with a series of impressive performances that have seen them dominate on both ends of the ice.

In their last outing against the Nashville Predators, Calgary showcased an explosive offense by netting six goals. Their scoring was spread across all three periods, with a particularly strong start that saw them put four past the Predators in the first period alone. The team's shooting accuracy was remarkable, boasting a 15 percent shooting percentage while also demonstrating defensive prowess with 19 blocked shots and a solid goaltending performance that included saving 29 out of 32 shots.

The game prior to that saw Calgary secure another win with three goals scored and only one conceded against Minnesota Wild. Once again, they displayed strong defensive capabilities by blocking 24 shots and winning over half of their faceoffs.

However, it's not just about defense for this Flames squad; they've shown they can light up any arena with their offensive firepower. In an earlier matchup at home against Philadelphia Flyers themselves – which may provide some psychological edge – Calgary emerged victorious with four goals to three.

While these statistics paint a picture of dominance by Calgary Flames in recent games, it is important for fans to remember that hockey is unpredictable and anything can happen on game day. The Wells Fargo Center will be buzzing as both teams look to assert themselves early on.

Fans should expect an intense battle where every shift counts and special teams could play a pivotal role given both teams' powerplay performances in past games. With Calgary's powerplay conversion rate being something they'll want to improve upon based on previous outings, it could be an area where this game is won or lost.

The upcoming clash between these two NHL titans is scheduled for January 6th at 18:00 GMT at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. Fans won't want to miss this match-up which will be broadcasted nationally on NHL Network (channel 215) as well as locally on NBCS-PH TV network.
