'THEY BRING ENERGY'

LAS VEGAS - This kid is more than alright!
Walker Duehr has seen action with the big club a handful of times this season, but there's no doubt that last night in Arizona was one of his best with his first multi-point game in the NHL.
It was a performance that has him fired up.

"It feels good anytime you can help out the team on the scoresheet," Duehr said. "It was a huge momentum swing for the team with Pelts scoring to get us up by one and then for us to take that commanding two goal lead felt pretty good.
"You feel more comfortable with each game you get and just being around the guys each and every day you get that sense of comfortability. I'm just trying to come in and play my game and play that way every night."
Duehr set up the Flames opening goal by creating space in front of the 'Yotes net and dished it off to Milan Lucic who made no mistake on it. Later on, it was his turn to light the lamp corralling a feed from Chris Tanev and used that blistering speed to get by the Coyotes defender to then shelf a beauty backhand into the top corner to add insurance.
One for the highlight reel no doubt.

The team was still buzzing this morning about last night's important win but also about the contributions from Duehr and Jakob Pelletier.
"They bring energy," associate coach Kirk Muller said. "They're young guys and that's what you want from young players that came in and play hard and bring the energy. At the end of the day too, you need some results and they did that.
"They obviously contributed with goals but it's the life they bring, the energy, the young bucks there and the guys embrace it. Its good this time of year. We're team that needs everybody … When you're asked to play you got to contribute and be a part of it and they did a good job last night."
The two goals rattled by the duo came just 40 seconds apart and also featured some very different celebrations.
"I've seen a lot of those, he's scored a lot of goals down in the AHL," Duehr said with a laugh on Pelletier's celebration. "I've been with him in the last two years and that's kinda typical Pelts. He likes to show a lot of emotion sometimes, I'm just happy to get the goal.
"It's another sense of comfortability with him here. Having that familiar face that I've spent the last two years with. We can lean on each other, it's great to have him here with me."
Now the focus is set on a stiff test against Vegas, with the Flames looking to ride that wave and try to bring some of that juice into tonight's battle in 'The Fortress' and pick up their first win in Sin City.
"Jump on them quick and get to the game plan right away," Duehr said. "Have a good start in the first five minutes of the game to set the tone, that'll be huge and just rolling through out every period.
"Any team is best rolling all four lines keeping guys fresh and just keep attacking them one after another and same with the d pairs. Everyone doing their job and role that works wells."
