Dan Vladar will start in the Calgary Flames' goal tonight in Anaheim.

Vladar played the final period of Monday night's 8-2 Flames loss to the host Los Angeles Kings, allowing two goals on 13 shots in relief of starter Jacob Markstrom.

Milan Lucic and Walker Duehr draw into the lineup at the expense of fellow forwards Jakob Pelletier and Adam Ruzicka. Dennis Gilbert lines up on defence in place of Chris Tanev, who's nursing an upper-body injury from Monday's game.
