DEVILS (23-16-2) at FLAMES (19-19-5)
TV: MSG PLUS 2, SNET-W (HD)
Last 10: New Jersey 6-3-1; Calgary 5-4-1.
Season Series: This is the only meeting of the 2011-12 season between the Devils and Flames. New Jersey earned a 2-1 shootout win on home ice in the most recent matchup on Nov. 24, 2010. Ilya Kovalchuk scored the only goal in the penalty-shot tiebreaker while Johan Hedberg finished with 25 saves.
Big Story: Year in and year out, whether the Flames are struggling or a playoff-caliber team, one of the constants in Calgary has been captain Jarome Iginla. In the team's most recent game, Saturday against Minnesota, the 34-year-old right wing scored the 500th goal of his illustrious career, all with the same franchise. Iginla is hardly slowing down, as his 16 goals put him on pace to record his 11th consecutive season of 30 or more.
