Battle of Alberta: Calgary Flames gear up for Game 3

Game 3 of the Battle of Alberta goes tonight in Edmonton.

The series is tied at one game apiece.

Flames head coach Daryl Sutter was asked what he thinks the atmosphere at Rogers Place will be tonight.

“Just think about it’d be awesome. So you get the atmosphere at the Saddledome and you get the atmosphere here,” said Sutter.

Johnny Gaudreau says these games are more intense given the last Battle of Alberta was in 1991.

“We’re in the playoffs you know Calgary (and) Edmonton hasn’t seen this in how many years? It’s just exciting. The guys, both teams are excited, both cities (are) excited,” said Gaudreau.

Coverage starts at 6:00 p.m. on Sportsnet.
