Joel Farabee had a goal and two assists as the Calgary Flames beat the Detroit Red Wings 4–1 at Scotiabank Saddledome on Saturday night, October 24, extending their winning streak to three games.

The NHL’s match report confirmed that Devin Cooley made 28 saves for Calgary, which improved to 4–6–0 after opening the season with five consecutive losses. Detroit fell to 4–4–3 as its six-game point streak ended.

Farabee opened the scoring late in the first period. Andrew Copp tied the game early in the second, but Zayne Parekh restored Calgary’s lead with a power-play goal at 8:38. Ryan Strome and Matvei Gridin then scored before the intermission to put the Flames ahead 4–1.

Calgary converted both of its power-play opportunities, while Detroit went scoreless on two chances. Gridin also added an assist, and Matt Coronato contributed two assists.

The Associated Press reported that Cooley has stopped 100 of 104 shots during his three-game winning streak. Farabee’s three-point night extended his own point streak to four games.

The Flames host the Toronto Maple Leafs on Monday night. Detroit continues its road trip in Edmonton the same evening.
