Darryl Sutter passes Badger Bob for most coaching wins in franchise history as the Calgary Flames defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning 6\u002D3.
That was a favourite line for the late ‘Badger’ Bob Johnson, and it was accurate Saturday for the Calgary Flames as they earned — andis definitely the right word for it — a 6-3 victory in a scrappy, spirited matinee against the Tampa Bay Lightning.Sign up to receive daily headline news from the Calgary Herald, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.By clicking on the sign up button you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.
The Flames were good, very good, in this Hockey Day in Canada clash with the Bolts, even if their cranky coach wasn’t about to admit it. Andersson added a couple of assists, while his top-pairing sidekick Noah Hanifin rebounded from a costly giveaway to post a three-point performance of his own. “It was a fun game to play,” added Andersson, his son Benjamin in his arms for his media scrum. “And it was probably a fun game to watch, too.”Everybody except Sutter was in a good mood afterward, although nobody was wearing a bigger smile than forward call-up Jakob Pelletier, who finally logged his NHL debut after sitting six in a row as a healthy scratch.
