NHL Highlights | Golden Knights vs. Flames – December 20, 2025

Here’s Matt Coronado had the game winner for Calgary in a comeback victory over Seattle up against Hart Stone who’s part of the load in the absence of Jack Gel Bowman. Now a stolen flames in the other direction. Back foot to Zary. To drag right to the front back scores, makes the big play. But here’s a turnover at the offensive blue line. And Backlin picks it up. Goes wide. Coleman goes takes his man to the net. Zari with a little tow drag up the middle through the defense and back didn’t just stay by it comes right to the front picks up the garbage to go back but seems to be lighting the lamp a little bit more with that in turns the corner he’s in on comes up with a great save to drag it along banks it off but Cry and Schmid swipes it with the goal Kousnets to Calry back to Khnets to the line for Sheriggo across Weaguer to Knets shoot scores contact after the goal with Popka on Schmid but it’s roll on the ice and the Blades have a two nothing lead. I’m sure that’s what the Vegas coaching staff is doing. There’s the shot and I think that’s by him before the contact. Here’s a shot off the glove and it’s in. And then Klaskka runs over the goalender. That’s I don’t think they’re in a position to challenge that by him before the contact. Here comes the shot. You’re going to agree with me on this one. Well, no. Oh, you’re nodding. How are people going to know you’re agreeing with me when you’re nodding? We’re up here in the booth. They can’t see you nodding. You’re agreeing with me. Here’s a shot. It’s by him. And then Clapka comes through and hits the goalie. So, uh, no challenge. Another Kevin B up the boards to Matt Coronado drops for Hubo across. was hoping to find either Anderson or Crossman. Now it’s a breakaway for Vegas and they score. Smith off the bench and into the back of the net and Vegas is on the board. Well, that’s a turnover at the blue line again coming off the bench. Here’s four guys for the Flames and there goes Ras Anderson cruising by. He wants to join the rush. Smith, what a beautiful move. Forehand, backhand, over the path. fakes the wrist shot, goes backhand, makes sure he gets it up and over the pad. Fakes the wrist shot, freezes Devin Culie, and then backhand over the pad. Anderson trying to spot that puck, finds it on the back hand. Ball to Hubo. Backlet on to Coronado now. Hanley turns it over side in shoots. Blocker stopped by up the middle. Flames changing over to Stoke hit by White Cloud. Vegas had the puck but protected in the slot and it’s up to Zary who’s got a break. Lber scores. Moments later, here’s a twoonoari. Nice little pass to Ryan W. stick side. Quick little backhand to the forehand in tight. Almost mishandled it. Spin gets deep on that one to give the Flames a twogoal gap. Zary involved again along with Beecher. And a little more from Lberg. He and Lozan drop him at center. Lberg an early punch and then he goes down and the linesman let back up. Some lefts from Lozan switches to his right uppercut. Roberg trying to get another one free. goes on tied up in a headline and the crowd will continue to roar for Ryan Lombberg. A goal in a fight back to back for 11 left in this period. So they’re heading right to the dress room >> with Eric Francis. Looking forward to that. Flames with a twogoal lead to start this second. Neither with us on hockey night in Canada from Calgary. Can’t move that puck quick enough. Flames come back to its area. Has to wait though. Cry changing. Calgary able to get back in. Weaguer with Coleman on the net. Weager cross ice. What the point of Min will finish it off. 200 NHL assist by Weager in the process. It’s another milestone night on the Saddle. Oh, Sme makes a great save on the first try by Bland and Backland’s able to bag it in. There’s a beautiful pass. Backlin going to the net. Go to the far post. Beautiful pass. And there’s Smith. Smith comes across, gets a leg on the first try. It’s off his skate, off his pad, then Backland just stays with it, slides it underneath the goalender. He didn’t know where it was. M around it. Hur will keep it alive for measures to the back hand and closing on him was McKenzie Weager when it looked like there was no chance to get there. Barby short-handed shoots scores. Now he gets this puck and instead of shooting he tries to go to the back end and Wiger’s there makes the play and Farab is off to the rac cut to the middle change the angle and you can see Schmid he goes to his right and leaves that left side opener onto the tape for back off of Myrtle goes right to Mitch Martner cutting wide he pulls up tight that one in and out. A goal from Corzac beats Kulie and the Knights have their second and then feeds the defenseman. Look at that little pass. Goes to the backhand, goes to the forehand, feeds it across and the quick shot. Look at Marner’s foot. 5 seconds remaining in the middle frame. Calgary just wants to KEEP IT SAFE. SMITH. OH, WHAT A PLAY AND A big stop by John Abbott, John Garrett with the call of the third period. >> Thank you, Scott. Of course, dad or Ryan in this case played for those Cam Loops teams and yes, we’re lights out. Stone right across. Had a bit shoot. Stop by Kulie. P came out and Kulie spots that after the failed wrap around attempt by Harley Smith. Just able to keep it away from Flame Sticks on Marhander and pushes over to make the stop. Big save by Kulie. Five minutes into his third corner. flames the other way across. Short bangle shot handled by Schmid. Joel Faraby, ironically enough, had the short-handed goal the last time Vegas had a power play. Golden Knights on the man advantage. >> Stone top handed shot banking it in is Stone. What a goal from that angle by Mark Stone. Good play by Stone to keep the puck in play, get it back to the point, then plant himself in front off the boards. And there’s the back hand and a bouncing puck will lose to Flames have their chance to get it out. Coleman failed the first time in desperation. Here comes Huboing. Honda anyway. Chris Martner coming back and couldn’t get to Hub Doll. Hub just out muscles him. Got position getting the puck out. They have to finally fight to get it out and Hubo leans in on Marner. Marner takes him down but Hubo is able to slide it in anyway. Time is ticking down. Vegas with the puck and the Flames are going to win it. They jump four teams and move within three points of a wild card spot with one game to go before the Christmas break.

Mikael Backlund had two goals and an assist, Devin Cooley made 34 saves and Ryan Lomberg was an assist shy of a Gordie Howe hat trick to help the Calgary Flames beat the Vegas Golden Knights 6-3.
