He led the Flames with 32 points in 44 games last year, potting 13 goals. "It was fantastic to be out there with the guys again. Its been quite awhile," said Cammalleri. "If I think about it, one exhibition game since May. Its been a lot of just skating by myself out there and it was a lot of fun to snap it around out there with the boys." It is unknown if Cammalleri will be able to make his season debut tonight as he remains day-to-day. The Flames have lost four straight and eight of their past 10 versus the Kings, getting outscored 12-4 in losing all three meetings a season ago.
