G51 Calgary Flames vs Winnipeg Jets: Hanging by a thread

May 5, 2021 - 11:40 AM ET

Follow me on Twitter @ToddCordell Five things to watch for when the Calgary Flames take on the Winnipeg Jets: 1. A 5v5 edge. The Jets have won just two of their last eight games, and dropped seven straight in regulation. There’s a reason for that. Without Nik Ehlers, arguably their best play...
