Calgary Flames NHL performance

Overview

The Calgary Flames secured consecutive victories in late October 2026. On October 18, goaltender Devin Cooley made 34 saves to lead the Flames to a 3-2 win against the Carolina Hurricanes, ending the Hurricanes' seven-game winning streak. Cooley noted he used time away from the lineup to work with goaltending coach Jason LaBarbera to address previous struggles.

Following this, the Flames achieved a second straight win by defeating the Minnesota Wild 2-1 on October 22 at the Scotiabank Saddledome. Cooley again anchored the defense with 36 saves. Calgary utilized two first-period power-play goals from Aydar Suniev and Joel Farabee to secure the win, while Michael McCarron scored the lone goal for the Wild in the third period. With this result, the Flames improved to a 3-6-0 record.

On October 25, the Flames extended their winning streak to three games with a 4-1 victory over the Detroit Red Wings. Joel Farabee led the offense with one goal and two assists, while Zayne Parekh, Ryan Strome, and Matvei Gridin also scored. Cooley made 28 saves, improving his record to 3-2 in his last three starts. The team’s success has been attributed to an improved power play, which is currently operating at 32 percent, ranking third in the league.

On October 26, the Flames reached a fourth consecutive victory by defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-2. Matvei Gridin led Calgary with two goals and one assist, supported by Martin Pospíšil and Šimon Nemec. The match also saw Toronto star Kirill Marchenko leave the game in the second period following a heavy fall against the boards; the full extent of his injury remains undisclosed.
