NHL Highlights | Flames vs. Canucks – November 23, 2025

Urban like to break through here in this game against the Canucks who start without Ratu at center. Drew O’ Conor and Kefir Sherwood flanking him. And we’re underway with Okconor backhanding the puck into the Calgary zone. Ratu in on the four check. Throws an early hit on McKenzie Weaguer. Here’s Sherwood at the left point sending the puck in front. Knocked away by the Flames. Quinn Hughes gets it. Tried to pass off for Sherwood but the puck was deflected out to center ice by Calgary. Here comes Weaguer. Ahead to Zer. Connor Zer turning, feeds back. Weaguer long shot and a can of corn there for Kevin Lanken as he fires around to Cornado in the near corner looking in front. The pass was out of the reach of Rasmus Anderson. Here come the Conucks. Twoon one. Phil Heronic towards the net. Slows, shoots, scores. Second goal in three games for Phil Heronic. He’s got two on the year and 65 seconds in the Canucks have the lead. The bag of tricks for that move. An iron pass is intercepted. De Brusk sends a twoon one. It’s Kane going to the net and watch this. Patience, puts on the brakes and fools the goalender. Whis slides by and Backland tried to spring Zary lanking it out to play the puck. So again, icing waved off at the other end. Here’s a chance in front. backlin as that puck found its way onto his stick and Lanken and alertly made the save and bounces off Zer and right into the Kuck logo. Cornado drops off. Here’s Kevin Ball ahead to Jonathan Hubo. Puck into the corner. Ball brings it in front of the backand left save and a penalty coming up. Ball is going to come off the goal line and then after the save for goender changes his lane to hit Lanken. trying to go to the back end and then look at that. Leans in and brushes the mask. So Lankin made the stop and he drew the penalty I believe. Here’s Hughes on a solo dash. Centers the breath is stopped by Wolf and there 10 to go in the power play. Hughes with a quick shift. Now gets a pass back. One-time kicked out. Sherwood on the rebound. Couldn’t pull the trigger. Besser tried to get one on goal. Couldn’t. Degrass keeps it alive with a pass to Patterson. Hughes at the blue line. Canucks moving the puck. Well, Patterson top of the circle. He and Hughes will shift sides. Patterson. Besser. And now Patterson once again puts one in front hoping for a tip. Puck deflects onto the stick of Hughes. 40 seconds to go on the power play. Here’s Hughes. Cuts left. He shoots. Wolf the save and Beecher is able to clear the puck all the way down. Evander Kane down for Garland. sends one across for Heronic. Power play looking quite dynamic. Second unit as well. Kane with a shot and stopping that shot of a rolling puck was Dustin Wolf and he hangs on like they have the three league leaders in terms of most shifts per game on average. The three defenseman this is one of them. Rasmus Anderson center they score. Morgan Frost on the redirect and Anderson with the setup. Frost tipped it in. It’s 1-1. Anderson’s way able to find who he needs. Kept alive by Coronado. Some patience there. And then watch Anderson. He’s going to look to the slot. And there’s that tip pass the blocker side. Just above the pad, below the blocker by Frost. Tie score. Shated it. Now tried to send one across to Okconor, but that was picked off by Connor Zerry. We’re eight minutes into the first. It’s a 1-1 tie. Coleman steps in on the right wing. Blake Coleman sends the puck across. Backhanded on the rebound. They score. Zary, his first goal since opening night and the Flames with a couple in short order have taken a two-1 lead. Having a player going right to the blue paint. Nice little shakeoff there from Coleman. A bounce off Ratu, a bounce off Lankinan. And Zer’s coming downhill and eludes his check. puts it in and then the celebration afterwards tells you it’s been a while since he’s had the red light go on. First and 26 for Connor Zer works his way to the corner try to pass for Max Cone broken up by Hanley. Carlson after the puck on the other 94 Braden Pal and the Flames able to come with the Carlson steals. He shoots and off the blocker of Dustin Wolf. Look as Carson three goals in the last six games and he’s able to track this and that one-time is going to open up things when Quinn Hughes shoots early in a power play like that. Oh, look at this. Here’s De Brushkins and he’s stopped by Wolf. Leads Kevin Lankin in goal for Vancouver. Dustin Wolf for the Flames. Sherwood ahead for O’ Conor was stood up by McKenzie Weaver. Person from the corner up to Kane. Sends one towards the goal. Trickles through and Wolfe couldn’t cover. Loose puck. Patterson’s onto it for Vancouver but poked away by Faraby. Beecher shoots off the left shoulder of Lanken and rebound driven wide by Rasmus Anderson. Ball down for Farabby. Vander steps into him. Here’s Anderson. Pass to Condri. Feeds off. Ball to the net. Tipped in. I think Farby might have got it. He was battling with Vander on the other side of the crease and the puck wound up in the net with Calgary going up by two. It’s going to be worked to the point right to the front of the net and past Lanken and Ball looking to bank it off bodies. Ah, you’re right. Just off the left toe, Tom Vander in the blue paint battling Faraby. Couple of times the Kucks got the puck to the neutral zone. Here’s Zary buying himself some room. Puts one in front on the back end. Coleman was there but couldn’t get his stick on it. Now he’s after the crease and just tipped it wide. here in the second period. Lankin had to readjust and this one just squeaks through and then Hughes on the other side is able to get to that puck as Coleman couldn’t get enough. Sharon go nowry drag move trying to step around Elias Patterson. He did get a backhander away the lank and it was able to stop. Here’s ball across. Taking the puck off the boards is Nasam Cadri. Tease it up for Anderson. Knocked down. Sharon Goic scores on the rebound. Blanken unable to knock down the Anderson point shot, but he couldn’t squeeze it. And Sharon Goic there to make it 4-1 Flames. A twoon two. Kazri Kry gets a puck back and then is able to get it back to the point. one-time and then as it comes out of the glove knocked out of the air by Sharon Govich who is having a slow season offensively but celebrates there his third of the season more importantly 4-1 Calgary. So the Canucks will try to put an end to that but they’re going to have to climb from three down as we get underway in period number three. Hughes on defense with Tyler Myers. Sends the puck up and Brock Besser tips it into the Calgary zone. Besser able to get the puck back to Hughes. Patterson. Hughes. Bessert and right onto the stick of Backland as he tried to return the puck to Quinn Hughes. Here’s Backland putting one in front. They score. Coleman short-handed. the 300th point in the career of Blake Coleman and the Flames are up five to one. Play that can give himself some life and instead it’s a pass back to the point. Backlin reads it and then holds up because Coleman is joining and as he goes right towards the front of the net he pokes it through Laninan and Calgary has taken control in every way in this game. It’s just the second short. He’s got one earlier in the season against the Rangers. His eighth goal of the year. Here’s Hughes in. Stopped by Wolf. He scores on his own rebound. A muted celebration from the Kuck Capkin. You can understand why. but he’s got his team back within three with a power play goal down as Hughes assesses things. He’s going to hit the turbo button right there. And then a tricky shot that isn’t handled cleanly. And with the speed, he’s able to follow up and be first to that rebound. A backhand tap. It goes fivehole just inside the blue line, but he took a look and missed the puck. Here’s M or Marcus Patterson. And Carlson gets around his man. Centers Wolf. The save off McKenzie McKern. Oh, he did get it. You’re right. But he’ll want to gloat about it. He’s going to try to find another. I’d forgotten the campaign. The campaign went on for so many years. Here’s Frost. Little dangle off the head of Lank and maybe the crossbar. Dial it up tomorrow. But this is Morgan Frost dangling and I think that was intercepted by Weaguer before it even got to Dustin Wolf. Beer for Calgary cutting towards the goal and couldn’t get that one past Lank. We the Flames even the season series as Calgary for the first time this year picks up a third straight victory on the heels of Devin Culie beating Dallas last night. Dustin Wolf comes in and back stops the Flames to a 5-2 win here in Vancouver. [Music]

Blake Coleman had a goal and an assist, Rasmus Andersson collected three assists and Dustin Wolf made 28 saves to help the Calgary Flames beat the Vancouver Canucks 5-2.

  1. This is just terrible. Having a two-day break and losing 5-2 to the Flames is absolutely painful and unacceptable. Hughes was the only Canuck that showed up tonight. The rest did not, and Lankinen deserves better treatment than this.

  2. Canucks looked like they were the team on the 2nd end of a back to back, just an unacceptable loss at home. Lankinen can't stop a beach ball either. Call up Lekkerimäki because the top 6 needs help and you might as well call up Mancini too. This team is so unserious.

  3. 25 games into the season is a large enough sample size to show you just how bad this Canucks team is… Who's the dimwit who decided to send Mancini back down to the AHL?? I don't know what the Canucks were thinking about tonight but it sure wasn't hockey….This would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic…

  4. I laughed so hard at Myers two crazy passes, the first was him trying to pass it to the other D and ended up going backward to centre ice. He did something similar again in the third. Sums up our season right there with those attempts, lol. Rutherford and Allvin really need to go and whatever system we have with Foote isn't working either. Let him go and bring in Manny. Maybe a top 5 pick (or top 3) can turn it around quick but Allvin and Rutherford would probably screw it up somehow anyway. This season is a loss boys.

  5. Whats going on with the Canucks defense??? Wasn't it supposed to be a strong point heading into the pre-season? We only have Forbert (3rd Pair D) out on the back end and have a norris-trophy winner on D. I know Demko is out, but Lankinen is certainly servicable for his contract that we paid him, but many of these are rebounds and grade "A" chances where the opposition just skates unimpeded through the slot is just unacceptable. Wasn't coach Foote the defensive coach last year? There couldn't have been that much of a systems change to cause this massive decline. We are now DEAD LAST for PK, and 3rd LAST in the league.
