Clean sweep.<\/p>\n
The Flames won their second game in three days against the Oilers to take both outings in a prospects series between the Alberta arch-rivals.<\/p>\n
Mael Lavigne, Nathan Brisson, Matvei Gridin, Colton Alain and Hunter Laing scored at the Scotiabank Saddledome Sunday in a 5-4 victory in the NextGen Showcase after Calgary had won 6-5 in Edmonton on Friday night.<\/p>\n
Arsenii Sergeev got the victory between the pipes after Owen Say manned the goal in the first contest.<\/p>\n
The line of Gridin, Carter King and Sam Honzek were excellent, Mace\u2019o Phillips dished out some big hits, and Aydar Suniev created chances all night in what was a solid showing for Calgary\u2019s young talent.<\/p>\n
The visitors opened the scoring just over two minutes in, with Tommy Lafreniere sneaking into the slot alone and tapping a one-timer farside past Sergeev.<\/p>\n
Simon Mack made a long, cross-ice pass to Parker Bell on a shorthanded rush not long after but the bouncing puck hopped over the stick of Bell.<\/p>\n
King sprung Gridin for a breakaway but he was denied by Edmonton\u2019s Nathaniel Day who made a pad stop. King tried to find Gridin later again in the first on a 2-on-1 but another hopping puck foiled the attempt.<\/p>\n
Suniev then had a golden look on a one-timer but Day denied him.<\/p>\n
Lavigne tied things up with 4:24 to go before the first intermission, scoring as he was hauled down in the crease following a 4-on-2 rush by the Flames.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Clean sweep.
