Pittsburgh at Calgary

The Flames' strong penalty kill (18-for-21 on the season) has been a big factor in squeezing out these wins. The penalty-kill unit was a perfect 4-for-4 on Saturday, holding steady even during a four-minute Hurricanes power play in the third period, preventing Carolina from scoring a go-ahead goal.

"The penalty kill ... was unbelievable," Calgary goaltender Jacob Markstrom said. "I don't know how many different pairings on forward and (defense) that was out there for the four-minute kill. So that was huge for us, and after that we grabbed the momentum."

Markstrom, who stopped 25 of Carolina's 27 shots, will likely be back in net on Tuesday.

When Calgary Flames head coach Darryl Sutter spoke this summer about teams needing an elite defenceman to win the Stanley Cup, people sort of assumed he might be referring to newcomer MacKenzie Weegar.

On heels of bad loss, Penguins must deal with Flames next

Coming off their first regulation loss of the season, the Pittsburgh Penguins will try to bounce back quickly against another tough opponent when they visit the Calgary Flames on Tuesday.

The 4-1-1 Penguins have scored six goals in each of their four victories, but the offensive tables were turned against them on Monday in a 6-3 loss to the host Edmonton Oilers. After building a 3-1 lead through 22 minutes, Pittsburgh allowed five unanswered goals.
