The Flames’ forward, Andrew Coronato, was the star of the game as he scored two goals, securing the victory for his team. This marks Coronato’s first multi-goal game in the NHL, making it a memorable night for the young player.
The first period saw a strong start from the Flames, with Coronato scoring his first goal just over five minutes into the game. The Blackhawks fought back, but were unable to find the back of the net, thanks to the impressive performance of Flames’ goaltender, Jacob Markstrom.
In the second period, the Blackhawks came out with renewed energy and managed to tie the game with a goal from Alex DeBrincat. However, the Flames quickly responded with a goal from Elias Lindholm, putting them back in the lead.
The third period saw both teams battling hard, but it was Coronato who once again stole the show with his second goal of the night, securing the win for the Flames.
The Flames’ head coach, Darryl Sutter, praised Coronato’s performance, stating that he has been a key player for the team since his debut. “He’s a young player with a lot of potential and he’s been working hard to improve his game. It’s great to see him have such a strong performance tonight,” said Sutter.
The Flames’ unbeaten streak now stands at four games, with a record of 3-0-1. They will look to continue their winning ways as they face the Blackhawks again on Thursday night.
The Blackhawks, on the other hand, will be looking to bounce back from this loss and improve their record, which currently stands at 1-3-0.
Overall, it was an exciting game for both teams, with the Flames coming out on top. With Coronato’s impressive performance and the team’s unbeaten streak, the Flames are proving to be a force to be reckoned with in the NHL this season.
