  • Gabriel Vilardi ended his drought with a power-play goal and an assist; Kyle Connor, Jonathan Toews and Alex Iafallo scored before Vladislav Namestnikov’s empty-netter.
  • Josh Morrissey logged three assists, setting up Connor’s 4-on-4 equalizer and Toews’ crease deflection that stood after Calgary’s goalie-interference challenge failed.
