The winner
Coronato trailed the play, caught up to create a three-on-one, took the feed in the slot and snapped a blocker-side shot past Dan Vladar. It was his second career overtime goal. Devin Cooley made 31 saves for the Flames, and Yegor Sharangovich had two assists. Vladar stopped 22 shots, with captain Sean Couturier adding two assists.
Streaks that cut both ways
Calgary has now won 62 straight games when scoring four or more goals, the second-longest run in league history behind the New York Rangers’ 65 from 2011 to 2014. The Flames are 13-3-1 against Philadelphia since 2017-18. The Flyers, meanwhile, have one win in their last seven and sit last in the Eastern Conference.
