Hurricanes at Flames | Recap

CALGARY -- Yegor Sharangovich scored to break a tie at 15:32 of the third period, and the Calgary Flames held on for a 3-2 win against the Carolina Hurricanes at Scotiabank Saddledome on Sunday.

Sharangovich one-timed a cross-ice saucer pass from Morgan Frost past Carolina goalie Brandon Bussi for his second goal of the season.

Frost had a goal and an assist for the Flames (2-6-0), who won for the first time on home ice this season. Matvei Gridin also scored and Devin Cooley made 34 saves.

Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Jalen Chatfield scored for the Hurricanes (7-2-1), who had won seven straight games and a franchise-record five in a row on the road. Bussi made 31 saves.

Kotkaniemi scored his second goal in as many games at 6:09 of the second period when he lifted a rebound over Cooley’s right pad to give the Hurricanes a 1-0 lead.

Nicolas Deslauriers took the initial shot and recorded his first assist of the season in his fifth game. Deslauriers moved into the lineup when forward Mark Jankowski was scratched shortly before puck drop with a lower-body injury.

Gridin countered with his first goal of the season at 18:30 to pull the Flames into a 1-1 tie when he scored on a wrist shot from the high slot to the top corner over Bussi’s glove.

Playing in his 400th NHL game, Frost tapped in a pass from Zayne Parekh for a power-play goal at 19:39 to give Calgary a 2-1 lead. Joel Farabee started the three-way passing play to record his team-leading fifth assist.

Just 17 seconds later at 19:56, Chatfield’s shot from the far boards through traffic found its way into the top corner over Cooley’s glove to make it 2-2.
