Martin Pospisil scored the tiebreaking goal with 4:22 left, Yegor Sharangovich added an empty-netter with 1:22 remaining and the Calgary Flames beat the Ducks 4-2 on Tuesday<\/a> night.<\/p>\n

Adam Klapka and Aydar Suniev added goals, and Dustin Wolf stopped 22 of 24 shots as the Flames (1-5) won for the first time this season. Beckett Sennecke and Leo Carlsson scored goals, and Lukas Dostal had 32 saves for the Ducks (4-2<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Pospisil\u2019s decisive goal came after he took a pass from Suniev at the center circle, skated down the left side, deked Ducks<\/a> defenders Tyson Hinds and Tristan Luneau by faking a shot and snapped the puck past Dostal\u2019s short side for a 3-2 lead.<\/p>\n

Anaheim gave up the tying goal just eight seconds after killing Calgary\u2019s five-on-three advantage \u2014 with the help of Dostal\u2019s four saves \u2014 for two minutes of the second.<\/p>\n

As Sennecke (tripping) and Alex Killorn skated out of the penalty box, Flames winger Ryan Strome snuck a cross-ice pass from the outside the left circle to Suniev, who snapped a shot from the inside edge of the right circle past Dostal\u2019s blocker for a 2-2 tie at the 8:02 mark.<\/p>\n

The Flames took a 1-0 lead 8:32 into the first when Maksim Tsyplakov intercepted a pass in the Anaheim slot and touched a pass back to Klapka, who beat Dostal.<\/p>\n

But the Ducks tallied twice within a 1:56 span of the first for a 2-1 lead. Sennecke stole the puck at his own blue line and beat Wolf glove-side for a breakaway goal with 7:51 left, and Carlsson\u2019s shot from the right circle went over Wolf\u2019s left shoulder for a power-play goal with 5:55 left.<\/p>\n

Roger McQueen, the Ducks\u2019 first pick in the 2025 draft, made his NHL debut after being recalled from the AHL San Diego Gulls. The 20-year-old center did not find the score sheet in 11 \u00bd minutes of ice time.<\/p>\n

McQueen replaced center Ryan Poehling, who suffered a medial collateral ligament sprain that will sideline him for six to eight weeks. Ducks forward Cutter Gauthier missed the game because of a lower-body injury and is day to day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Martin Pospisil scored the tiebreaking goal with 4:22 left, Yegor Sharangovich added an empty-netter with 1:22 remaining and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":495517,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[31186,1720,29683,6264,2194,48,52,51,5814,1716,47,50,49,5498,5463,772,21260,74038,9011,5250,192609],"class_list":["post-495516","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-aydar-suniev","tag-beckett-sennecke","tag-duck","tag-ducks","tag-goal","tag-la","tag-la-headlines","tag-la-news","tag-lead","tag-leo-carlsson","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-headlines","tag-los-angeles-news","tag-lukas-dostal","tag-minute","tag-pass","tag-right-circle","tag-roger-mcqueen","tag-save","tag-shot","tag-winless-flames"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495516","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=495516"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495516\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/495517"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=495516"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=495516"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=495516"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
