The Boston Bruins are really good at hockey. But the Calgary Flames, when they want to be, can be pretty good, too. The Flames out-worked and out-hustled the Bruins in a hard-fought 5-2 road win to kick off the final stretch of the regular season.

The Flames scored first off a play that was eerily similar to a bounce that went against them on Friday against the Bruins. Mikael Backlund’s initial shot went wide, but rebounded off the end boards right to Matthew Tkachuk. He chipped the puck over a sprawling Tuukka Rask to make it 1-0 Flames.
