CALGARY, Alberta (AP) 鈥� Blake Coleman scored the game-winner as the Calgary Flames scored three times in the third period for a 4-2 comeback victory over the Nashville Predators on Tuesday night.
Dillon Dube, Noah Hanifin and Nazem Kadri, into an empty net, also scored for Calgary (4-7-1), which has won consecutive games for the first time this season.
Michael McCarron and Kiefer Sherwood scored for the Predators (5-7-0), who have lost three of their last four.
Jacob Markstrom made 17 stops to snap a personal seven-game winless skid. He hadn鈥檛 won since he was in net for Calgary鈥檚 victory in its season opener.
The much busier Juuse Saros had 35 saves in the loss.
Down 2-1 after 40 minutes, Calgary tied it at 4:45 of the third. Shortly after Yegor Sharangovich was stopped on a great setup in front by Kadri, Sharangovich got the puck in the corner and set up Hanifin breaking in from the blue line and he whipped a 30-foot wrist shot into the top corner.
Less than two minutes later, Coleman gave Calgary its first lead of the night. Holding onto the puck on a two-on-one, he elected to shoot and wristed a shot high over Saros鈥� glove.
Down 2-0, the comeback began at 15:06 of the second when defenseman Nikita Zadorov burst up ice and dropped the puck to Dube, whose shot squeezed through Saros鈥� pads for his second goal of the season.
Nashville opened the scoring at 4:35 when McCarron scored his first goal of the season by finishing off a slick passing sequence. In his second NHL game, defenseman Marc Del Gaizo sent a pass down low to Liam Foudy whose touch pass across to McCarron was neatly steered inside the goalpost.
Andrew Mangiapane, one goal shy of 100 goals for his career, did not play as he served his for his cross-check to the neck of Jared McCann of the Seattle Kraken.
