The Calgary Flames defeated the Vegas Golden Knights 5-4 in a shootout, but were eliminated from playoff contention due to St. Louis’s win against Utah and Minnesota’s overtime point against Anaheim. Despite the disappointing news, the Flames displayed resilience, notably scoring two quick goals in the third period and excelling on special teams, going 2-for-2 on the power play and maintaining a strong penalty kill. Calgary’s defense was also commendable, blocking 19 shots, with Joel Hanley leading with four blocks, as they prepare for their final regular season game against the Los Angeles Kings.
