BP 13 - Flames Top Coyotes

Last night the Calgary Flames took on the Phoenix Coyotes at the Pengrowth Saddledome. The Coyotes have been a very hot team this season and many believed the Flames would be unable to stop the Coyotes. The Flames have been missing their team captain Mark Giordano for the past 18 games. The Flames started off the 2013/14 season with a 4-2-2 record, while Giordano was healthy. But he broke his foot just after their fourth win and the Flames went on a 5-11-2 slump without their captain. Giordano did not waste much time last night, he was blocking shots, making great plays and it looked as if he had never been injured. Giordano managed to put 2 points onto the board last night, one goal and one assist. The Flames played some of there best hockey I have seen this season, they managed to beat the Coyotes with a score of 4-1. Early in the 3rd period the Flames scored a spectacular short handed goal thanks to a great outlet pass from Giordano to Matt Stajan, Stajan then waited for the right opportunity and made a quick tape to tape pass to Lee Stempniak who buried the puck in the back of the net. It was a great game to watch, and it was a great way for the Flames captain to make his return to the lineup. Next Calgary Flames home game is Friday December 6th. Go Flames Go!
