The NHL Canadian Championships heat up with 5 games in the next 6 nights before the New Year. The Ottawa Senators, who have yet to play a Championship game, will head out to Western Canada to play 3 games.
The Calgary Flames, will try to hang on to top spot with match-ups against the Sens and a New Years Eve tilt with provincial rival Edmonton Oilers.
The Oilers, who also have 3 games over this 6 day stretch, have a chance to move back into the race or fall off completely.
The Vancouver Canucks, who have struggled thusfar with only 1 win in 4 games, will play twice in what should be considered "must win" situations.
In the New Year, the Senators return east to take on the Toronto Maple Leafs on January 3rd (CBC, 7 pm).

Each team plays 10 games. One home and one away against each of the other Canadian teams.
Teams in the same conference play each other more than twice during the regular season, however only two of the meetings were selected (home and away). The games selected were Nationally Televised on TSN, CBC-Hockey Night in Canada (particularly on Hockey Day in Canada), or Holidays where possible.
The Canadian Championship will use same point structure as the NHL Regular Season (W - 2 pts, OTL - 1 pt, SOL - 1 pt)
The Champion will be the team with the most points.
