The Calgary Flames were back at the Scotiabank Saddledome as they hosted the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night (Dec. 19).
Not only did Brady Tkachuk, brother of former Flame Matthew, put on a show with an overtime goal after getting nine stitches and losing a tooth, but Calgary singer Tate McRae and her brother Tucker were in attendance.
Tucker is known in the area for playing with the Okotoks Oilers, and the Flames broadcast made that known as they gave the Green and Gold a shoutout.
Calgary’s own! 🫶

Tate's brother is currently with Dartmouth College in the NCAA. Prior to his NCAA career, Tucker spent parts of four seasons with the Oil, including captaining the team in the 2021-2022 season.
In that season, Tucker posted 38 points in 58 games.
The Oilers are off this weekend but they're back on the ice in Trail B.C. to face the Smoke Eaters on December 28.
