Ducks Rally From 3 to 1 Down to Win 5 to 3 in Calgary as Husso Is Perfect in Relief
November 6, 2026
Three finals Friday night, and the story belonged to a comeback that looked impossible at the first intermission.
Games of the night
Three or four nights in here that will echo all week.
- Calgary scored first at 2:23 of the opening period when W. Stromgren backhanded one home, and J. Malott answered for the Ducks just 27 seconds later. The Flames pulled away anyway on goals from J. Hanley and J. Farabee on the power play, the latter landing with 58 seconds left in the first to make it 3-1.
- Buffalo 5-2 over Columbus was tidier. K. Johnson tied it at 1-1 with 4:00 left in the first, and the Sabres answered with four unanswered goals.
- Minnesota 4-1 over San Jose ran through its two louder names. Kirill Kaprizov posted four points on a power play goal and three assists, and Q. Hughes added a goal and two helpers from the blue line to take the first star.
