Andrew Mangiapane was recalled by the Flames after scoring a pair of goals and adding in assists in two games with the Heat over the weekend in Texas.
DUBE ROLLING
Dillon Dube comes into tonight's game riding a five-game scoring streak, including two goals and three assists in that span. Over the five-game stretch, Dube is a plus-1.
