The Calgary Flames beat the Philadelphia Flyers 4-3 in overtime on Sunday, November 8, 2026, at Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary. Matt Coronato scored with 51.7 seconds left in overtime to win a game Calgary never led during regulation.

Three ties in regulation

Denver Barkey opened the scoring for Philadelphia with 7:14 left in the first period, assisted by Sean Couturier and Jamie Drysdale. Zayne Parekh tied the game 1-1 with 4:34 left in the first, set up by Yan Kuznetsov and Yegor Sharangovich.

Noel Acciari put Philadelphia back in front 2-1 with 17:44 left in the second period, assisted by Nick Seeler and Couturier. Zach Whitecloud tied it again at 2-2 with 14:01 left in the second, on assists from Aydar Suniev and Sharangovich, who finished the night with two assists.

Owen Tippett scored a power play goal to give Philadelphia a 3-2 lead, assisted by Christian Dvorak and Oliver Bonk. Calgary still trailed in the third period when Joel Farabee tied the game 3-3 with a shorthanded breakaway goal with 11:33 left, assisted by Martin Pospisil. Farabee scored against his former team to force overtime.

Coronato ends it

Coronato scored the winner late in the extra period, assisted by Matvei Gridin and Simon Nemec. Devin Cooley stopped 31 of 34 shots for Calgary. Dan Vladar made 22 saves on 26 shots for Philadelphia, which outshot Calgary 34-26. Couturier had two assists for the Flyers.

The win moved Calgary to 8-9-1 with 17 points and ended a two game losing streak. Philadelphia fell to 4-11-4 with 12 points and has now lost three games in a row.

Philadelphia will look at this game as one that got away. The Flyers led 1-0, 2-1 and 3-2, outshot Calgary by eight and got two assists from Couturier, yet left with only one point. Calgary stayed in the game through each answer, first through Parekh, then through Whitecloud and finally through Farabee on a shorthanded break. That patience carried into overtime, where one late chance was enough for Coronato to end it. For Calgary, the two points mattered on a night when the team could have folded after the third Philadelphia lead. Instead, the home side answered one more time and took the extra point in front of its own crowd.
