Flames continue turnaround, top Wings for third straight win

Joel Farabee scored a goal and added two assists as the Calgary Flames cruised past the visiting Detroit Red Wings 4-1 on Saturday, snapping Detroit's eight-game winning streak in the teams' series.

Matvei Gridin had a goal and an assist for Calgary, while Ryan Strome and Zayne Parekh also scored. Matt Coronato added two assists.

Devin Cooley made 28 saves for the Flames, who have won three straight and four of their last five games after opening the season with five consecutive losses.

Andrew Copp scored the lone goal for Detroit, which had won three of its previous four games. John Gibson made 21 saves after leaving his previous start Thursday because of an eye issue.

Farabee, who extended his point streak to four games with two goals and five assists during that span, put Calgary on the board at 17:50 of the first period. Adam Klapka set him up for a snap shot, while Kevin Bahl also assisted on Farabee's second goal of the season.

Copp tied the game at 2:22 of the second period with his second goal of the season. J.T. Compher set him up for a backhand shot past Cooley.

Parekh put Calgary back in front at 8:38 with a power-play snap shot for his first goal of the season.

Strome extended the lead to 3-1 at 17:04, converting a pass from Morgan Frost for his second goal of the season.

Gridin capped the scoring at 18:30 with a power-play snap shot for his second goal of the campaign.

The Flames will look to complete a sweep of their four-game homestand Monday against the Toronto Maple Leafs, while the Red Wings will try to split their four-game road trip Monday against the Edmonton Oilers.
