The newly formed Blake Coleman, Sean Monahan and Trevor Lewis trio combined for five points, Elias Lindholm tallied a single in regulation, and Dan Vladar - who made his first start since Nov. 21 - made 31 saves in regulation and overtime.
Johnny Gaudreau did the rest for his club, scoring the shootout winner as the Flames beat the Ducks 4-3 on Friday at the Honda Center.
The Ducks rallied from a 3-1 deficit to pull even early in the third period, but they were tidy the rest of the way before Gaudreau and Matthew Tkachuk struck in the skills contest.
With the win, the Flames now have an NHL-best 11 road wins, and are 15-4-5 overall.
The Flames got off a great start and applied all sorts of pressure in the game's early going. Their efforts nearly paid off at 3:35 when Sean Monahan won a crucial, offensive-zone faceoff, allowing Noah Hanifin to gather the puck on his strong side and walk in off the blueline.
Hanifin feathered a beautiful wrister that looked destined for the top corner, but it caught iron and caromed out of play.
Hanifin had another great chance midway through the frame when he drove hard to the net and took a beautiful pass from Andrew Mangiapane, but the D man's one-time offering clanked metal, once again.
At the other end, Vladar had to be sharp, with the Ducks outshooting the Flames 10-5 at one point in the stanza. Just prior to the second Hanifin chance, hotshot rookie Trevor Zegras got a pass at the bottom of the right circle and rifled a quick wrister, but the goalie got across and took away the net.
At first glance, it looked like he made an impossible glove save - replay, later confirming that the shot was a smidge off target, glancing off the outside of the mesh and bouncing to safety.
Back and forth they went!
Gibson entered the chat late in the period when Johnny Gaudreau tried to stuff one out front, before Matthew Tkachuk took it in alone on a breakaway, but the 2016 Jennings Trophy winner was up to the task, thwarting them both with a fine display of athleticism.
Adam Henrique then rang one off the post at the other end on the very next shift, rounding out one of the most exciting scoreless periods you'll ever see.
Shots on goal favoured the Ducks 14-12 after one.
