ANAHEIM, Calif. — 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 Anaheim Ducks 4-2 on Tuesday 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).<\/p>\n
Pospisil\u2019s decisive goal came after he took a pass from Suniev at the center circle, skated down the left side, deked Anaheim 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 game-tying goal just eight seconds after killing Calgary\u2019s 5-on-3 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-all 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’s shot from the right circle went over Wolf\u2019s left shoulder for a power-play goal with 5:55 left.<\/p>\n
Roger McQueen, Anaheim\u2019s 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
Ducks: Host Boston on Friday.<\/p>\n
Flames: At Vegas on Thursday.<\/p>\n
