Matt Coronato was the star for the Calgary Flames, scoring twice and adding an assist as they defeated the Anaheim Ducks 4-1. The Flames, now 25-18-7, are in a heated race with the Vancouver Canucks for a playoff spot in the Western Conference. Blake Coleman and Adam Klapka also found the net, while Dustin Wolf made 31 saves to secure the victory. The Ducks, who fall to 21-24-6, managed only one goal from Frank Vatrano. The match was marked by trade speculations, leading to changes in Calgary's lineup, including the scratching of Andrei Kuzmenko.

The Flames turned the tide with Coleman scoring the go-ahead goal in the final seconds of the second period, following a defensive miscue from the Ducks. Klapka’s goal just 15 seconds into the second period leveled the game before Vatrano had given Anaheim an early lead. This win improves Calgary’s record to 23-3-4 when tied or leading after two periods, and they will look to continue their momentum against the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday.
