In Dallas Tuesday night, the Calgary Flames’ Johnny Gaudreau contributed to each of the Flames’ two goals in a 2-1 win over the Stars.
Gaudreau had a goal and assist to help the Flames to their fourth straight win.
“He has so much energy and he’s so gifted with the puck that it gets everyone else buzzing,” the Flames’ Chad Johnson said. “I think everyone feeds off that and I think you can see that when he’s in the lineup.”

Sean Monahan scored power play goal in the third period for the winning edge.

“I thought that the biggest save was early in the game when they had momentum,” Flames coach Glen Gulutzan said. “I think it was Jordie Benn came down there and hit him off the shoulder, but he was in great position.”
Johnson stopped 29 shots for the Flames who improved to 14-13-2.
Curtis McKenzie scored the lone Stars goal.
“It wasn’t good enough. We just played a disastrous second period, we should have been down three or four. Our puck management and what we did with the puck. At the end of the night there is karma and you get what you deserve,” Stars head coach Lindy Ruff of his team’s effort in the loss.
Kari Lehtonen took the loss on 18 saves.
