Calgary Flames face five legitimate Stanley Cup contenders on six -game road trip.

The Flames are one point behind the Vancouver Canucks for a wild-card spot in the Western Conference .

The trip includes 11 nights in a half-dozen different hotels, cover close to 11,000 km and face five teams.

The key is to ensure they don’t fade from the race to make the playoffs.

Flames forward Martin Pospisil : "We will try to prove wrong the people that think we still don’t have a chance for the playoffs" “I think the first one is huge. In Washington , and we know they’re a really good team. If we win that first game, I think we will have way more confidence for the next games.”.
