Weegar gives Calgary Flames big lift in 3-2 win over Canucks
Defenceman Mackenzie Weegar notched his first goal as a Flame and added an assist Saturday night to lead Calgary to a 3-2 win over the visiting Vancouver Canucks.
After a scoreless first period, Calgary surged in front 1:21 into the second when Lindholm kept the puck on a two-on-one rush and fired a shot past Martin. That sequence was a microcosm of Vancouver’s struggles in the second period in they had three power plays but failed to score and were outshot 3-2 by the Flames’ penalty killers.
The resilient Canucks climbed within one at 4:06 of the third when Pettersson buried a rebound, but Vancouver could not find the tying goal although they pushed hard.
