Only two players in Flames history have posted a longer season-opening streak from the start of their tenure with the franchise: Phil Housley (7 GP in 1994-95) and Sergei Makarov (7 GP in 1989-90).
Jonathan Huberdeau tallied his first in Flames silks, while veteran blueliner Michael Stone continued to have a hot hand, rounding out the scoring for the homeside.
Stone has an impressive two goals and five points in six outings.
Jacob Markstrom was excellent between the pipes making 32 saves, 18 saves of them coming in the second period.
He made some massive stops at key points of the night, including robbing Evgeni Malkin late in the first period, kicking out his left pad to deny Sam Poulin who was all alone at the side of the net in the second, and denying Bryan Rust's Grade-Aer on a Pens powerplay.
The FlameS absolutely dominated the opening frame, but with nearly three-quarters of the first 20 gone and up 14-1 in the shot count with a handful of Grade-A chances already, they finally beat Casey DeSmith.
And it was a beauty.
After a solid cycle in the Pens zone, Kadri finished off a dandy no-look backhand pass from Andrew Mangiapane who was behind the net at 5:49, putting the puck top shelf over DeSmith's blocker from in tight. Their linemate, Dillon Dube, picked up the other helper.
