ALEX Tanguay tied the game late in the third period then scored the shootout winner to lead the visiting Calgary Flames to a 3-2 win over the Dallas Stars on Thursday.
With goalie Miikka Kiprusoff on the bench in favor of an extra attacker, Tanguay's wrist shot tied the score at 2-2 with just 1:21 left in regulation.
The Flames dominated the final two periods, outshooting the Stars 25-9, but needed Tanguay's late show to overcome a third-period goal by Stars captain Brenden Morrow. The teams exchanged first-period powerplay goals from Anton Babchuk (Flames) and Mike Ribeiro (Stars) before a score-less second.
Stars goalie Kari Lehtonen was in brilliant form over the final two periods, while Kiprusoff stood tall in the shootout, stopping all three shooters he faced.
Elsewhere in the National Hockey League, it was: Penguins 3, Capitals 2 (in a shootout); Lightning 4, Rangers 3 (in SO); Blues 4, Red Wings 3; Bruins 4, Thrashers 1; Canucks 7, Blue Jackets 3; Sharks 4, Coyotes 1; Wild 3, Avalanche 1; Canadiens 3, Hurricanes 2; Senators 2, Predators 1; Kings 3, Oilers 2 (in SO); Panthers 4, Sabres 3; and Islanders 5, Devils 1.
