Comrie suffered a bad bounce when Rasmus Andersson collected a loose puck and fired the puck off the mask from Comrie and into the net to tie the score at two. At 1:17 of the third period, Dylan Samberg fired a timed shot from the point that came off the glass behind the Flames net and behind Wolf to give the Flames a 3-2 lead. Winnipeg.
