Ducks 6, Flames 3: Captain Ryan Getzlaf snapped a tie at 8:53 of the third period as Anaheim erased a two-goal deficit with five consecutive tallies en route to its second win in seven games.
Getzlaf matched Andrew Cogliano and defenseman Hampus Lindholm with a goal and an assist while blue-liner Francois Beauchemin, Kyle Palmieri and Jakob Silfverberg also scored for the Ducks, who improved to 3-0-1 in the five-game season series. Patrick Maroon notched two assists and John Gibson made 25 saves while helping kill four penalties.
Matt Stajan, Lance Bouma and Sean Monahan tallied for the Flames, who completed a 2-1-1 homestand. Jonas Hiller turned aside 32 shots against his former team as Calgary was outshot 29-17 over the final two periods.
Stajan opened the scoring with 5:10 remaining in the first period, when he buried the rebound of Joe Colborne's shot from the high slot. Bouma doubled the lead 11 minutes into the second by redirecting Dennis Wideman's pass past Gibson after the defenseman kept the puck in the offensive zone at the right point.
Anaheim began its comeback four minutes later as Corey Perry's blast from the top of the right faceoff circle deflected off Cogliano's leg and in. Beauchemin converted Cogliano's pass from the right circle at 6:13 of the third to tie it before the puck caromed off the end boards and in off the back of Hiller's skate after Getzlaf's one-timer from the blue line sailed wide.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Palmieri made it 4-2 with 8:25 left in the third period, breaking up a pass at the bottom of the slot and knocking in the loose puck after Hiller was unable to freeze it. ... Calgary successfully killed its only penalty of the contest to improve to 20-for-20 over its last 11 games. ... The Ducks scored more than three goals for the first time in seven contests.
