Sticking with a winner.

That's what head coach Darryl Sutter will do tonight with the Calgary Flames lineup. 

The Calgary combos that skated during pre-game warmup this morning were the same ones that played together in Saturday's win over the San Jose Sharks.

Injured Flames defenceman Chris Tanev will miss his fourth game in a row.

"Everybody brings something to the table back there. We obviously miss Tanev a lot," Flames defenceman MacKenzie Weegar said this morning after pre-game warmup.

"He's an important piece not only to the back-end but to the team. We have to rally together and pick up the slack … against a good team like this, we're really going to have to play solid defence tonight."
