DENVER (AP) — The Calgary Flames‘ strong finish rendered their slow start into an afterthought.Elias Lindholm scored the tying goal with 1:54 left in regulation and Johnny Gaudreau put in a goal in the first minute of overtime Youth Jamie McGinn Jersey , lifting the Flames to a 3-2 victory over the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday night.Calgary trailed 2-0 on first-period goals by Colorado’s J.T. Compher and Nathan MacKinnon, who scored 11 seconds into the game. But the Flames regrouped after a timeout following the Avalanche’s second goal and a pep talk from their coach, Bill Peters.“He said that there was plenty of time left and we had to get skating,” Flames defenseman Mark Giordano said. “We weren’t even moving the first few shifts, it felt like. But give them credit. That’s one of the fastest lines I think I’ve played against, that MacKinnon line. I thought as the game went on, we did a really good job. That’s a huge two points for us.”Before long, Calgary was taking the attack to Colorado and exerting relentless pressure on goalie Semyon Varlamov. Of 41 shots in the game by the Flames, 31 were taken in the second and third periods and OT. The Avalanche, meantime, struggled to penetrate the Calgary zone, getting off only nine of their 26 shots after the first period.“The last two periods is when we stopped playing offensive hockey. We weren’t playing aggressive hockey, which is the way we can play,” Colorado’s Gabriel Landeskog said. “We want to play fast. We see what happens when we play fast. In the first five, 10 minutes of the first period obviously Womens Jared McCann Jersey , we were doing pretty good and then we kind of just laid off the gas. All of a sudden, we started making soft plays and it wasn’t good enough.”Lindholm sent the game into OT by forcing a turnover in the Colorado zone, taking the puck up close and firing it past Varlamov for the equalizer.Colorado couldn’t stop Gaudreau on a breakaway. He got behind the Avalanche defense and knocked home the game-winner from up close.“I had kind of a clear breakaway there, tried to fake the shot and come all the way across and found his five-hole,” Gaudreau said.“I think we played better after the timeout. Everyone knew we needed to be better and coach said there was a lot of time left in the game. We beared down and found a way to win.”Calgary broke through for its first goal at 10:52 of the second to pull to within 2-1. Varlamov stopped a shot from Mikael Backlund but the puck popped loose in front of the net. Sam Bennett charged through the slot and got his stick on the puck, shoving it into the net for the score.Colorado broke on top with two quick goals in the first period, the first coming 11 seconds into the game. Landeskog won the game-opening faceoff and sent the puck into the Calgary zone. Mikko Rantanen sent a shot to the net that goalie David Rittich saved but he couldn’t corral the rebound, which found MacKinnon’s stick. MacKinnon wristed the puck into the net for his sixth goal of the season. The goal by MacKinnon equaled the franchise record for most consecutive games (5) with a goal to start a season set by Mats Sundin in 1992-93J.T. Compher capitalized on a Calgary turnover to score Colorado’s second goal at 2:40 of the first. Defenseman T.J. Brodie lost a puck in the Calgary zone when it bounced over his stick and Compher swept in to carry the puck down the ice before knocking it into the net up high for the score.NOTES: Calgary’s Garnet Hathaway played in his 100th career game. … MacKinnon has scored a goal in five consecutive games, matching his longest career goal scoring streak.

LAS VEGAS (AP) – In a game that included William Karlsson’s natural hat trick and Marc-Andre Fleury getting his 48th career shutout and 401st win, Vegas coach Gerard Gallant credited a hit by forward Ryan Reaves as the biggest play.Barely two minutes into the second period, Reaves – acquired from Pittsburgh on Feb. 23 – flattened TJ Brodie with a blast that sidelined Calgary’s defenseman the remainder of the game while sparking the Golden Knights‘ recent stagnant offense.”That was the difference,” Gallant said of Vegas’ 4-0 win over the Flames on Sunday. ”That changed the game around. It was a big, clean hit. Ryan’s been here for 10, 11 Jonathan Huberdeau Jersey , 12 games with us right now and he’s doing a good job, he’s playing his role real good and that hit changed the game around for sure.”Colin Miller also scored as Vegas snapped a four-game home losing streak and improved to 25-9-2 at T Mobile Arena. In splitting its last four games, the Golden Knights had been outscored 15-10 and hadn’t scored more than three goals in a game since a 4-0 win at Detroit on March 8.”We weren’t happy with the way we played over the last couple of weeks,” Gallant said. ”We had some real good games in there, we had some games where I thought we played OK and lost. Tonight I thought we had a tough first period and we played real good to battle back and win an important game.”Fleury, who made his 20th start in 21 games, stopped 42 shots for his fourth shutout of the season, He also moved into a tie with Chris Osgood for 12th on the NHL’s career wins list.”I thought we played well in our zone and came out as a group together and created that way as a team going down on the other side,” Fleury said. ”I could see most pucks, and that makes a big difference and when there (were) rebounds, they took their guys away. It’s the little things that makes a big difference in a game.”Vegas improved to 3-0-0 against Calgary while outscoring the Flames 15-5. The teams meet once more, in the regular-season finale at Calgary on April 7.Mike Smith stopped 27 shots as the Flames, one of the league’s better road teams this season, dropped to 20-11-6 away from home.”That team we’re playing there, they can score http://www.floridapanthersteamshops.com/authentic-keith-yandle-jersey ,” Calgary coach Glen Gulutzan said. ”They got some juice from a mistake and they got their juice started with the power play. We just couldn’t put one past them – especially early.”The Flames outshot the Golden Knights, 20-6, in the first period. But with the game scoreless early in the second, Brodie looked to clear the puck as he came from behind the net when Reaves leveled him and sent the 18,075 fans in attendance into a frenzy.”I hope it got a little energy into the boys,” Reaves said. ”But big goals at big times, we needed to get the first one. We’ve been struggling to get the first goals the last couple of games, so getting the first one is even bigger. … The last two games we’ve come out in the first period kind of lazy and waiting for the game to go, we did it again today. That’s when I go and try and find a spark, whether it’s a hit or a fight, or just getting in somebody’s face, that’s what I try and bring to the team.”Not too long after Reaves’ thunderous hit, and with Vegas on the power play, Miller found the back of the net with a vicious slap shot from the point 5 1/2 minutes into the period. Vegas has scored at least one power-play goal in 18 of its last 27 games.Less than one minute later, James Neal made a steal at the blue line Womens Authentic Nick Bjugstad Jersey , created space in Calgary’s zone and fed a streaking Karlsson, who one-timed it to give Vegas a 2-0 lead.Karlsson’s second goal came after he set up near the left circle, took Jonathan Marchessault’s pass from behind the net, and fired a shot that deflected off Smith’s glove with just under seven minutes left in the middle period.The 26-year-old center completed his natural hat trick when he took a pass from defenseman Nate Schmidt in Vegas’ zone, skated the length of the ice and lifted a wrist shot over Smith’s blocker to make it 4-0 with 5:11 remaining in the second.”I just got the chances and managed to bury them, turned out to score three goals,” Karlsson said. ”We had that hit by Reavo, kind of got the momentum swing for us and I think we played great hockey after that. Those little things that can make a huge difference.”Karlsson moved to the top of the NHL list of Swedish players with 62 points this season. Karlsson’s 39 goals bring him closer to tying Henrik Zetterberg’s single-season mark for a Swedish-born player, with 43.NOTES: Calgary’s Matt Stajan is now two games shy of 1,000 for his career. … Vegas’ Pierre-Edouard Bellemare played in his 300th career game. … Gallant is two wins away from his 200th.UP NEXTCalgary: Visits the Arizona Coyotes on Monday.Vegas: Hosts the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday.
