CALGARY, Alberta (AP) Johnny Gaudreau had a highlight-reel goal 1:38 into overtime and the Calgary Flames beat the Chicago Blackhawks 2-1 on Friday night to remain perfect in overtime games.
Calgary has won five times in six games that went to extra time, with the lone loss coming in their only shootout.
The Flames dominated the overtime and finally solved goalie Scott Darling with their sixth shot of the period. Gaudreau chased down his own rebound and then went backhand-to-forehand before beating Darling from in tight.
Sean Monahan also scored and Karri Ramo made 18 saves to help Calgary win consecutive games for just the second time this season. The Flames have won four straight at the Saddledome. They open a three-game Pacific trip Tuesday night in Arizona.
Artem Anisimov scored his eighth and Darling made 35 stops, but Chicago had its three-game win streak halted.
Patrick Kane’s point streak ended at 14 games.
