The Calgary Flames closed out the regular season with a decisive 5-1 victory against the Los Angeles Kings, marking a strong finish highlighted by the NHL debuts of Sam Morton and Zayne Parekh. Nazem Kadri stood out with two goals, while Taylor Ward also scored for the Kings, who ended a four-game winning streak. Los Angeles remains playoff-bound, facing the Edmonton Oilers in the first round with home-ice advantage for the first time in their series history.

Calgary took control in the third period, scoring four goals in just over five minutes, starting with Morton’s goal from a Ryan Lomberg pass. Parekh, the ninth overall pick from last summer's draft, scored shortly after with a deft redirection. David Rittich made 24 saves for the Kings, who matched franchise records from previous successful seasons but failed to set new ones this year.
