				<title><![CDATA[Iginla, Huselius net hat tricks as Flames beat Lightning]]></title>
				<description><![CDATA[TAMPA, Florida (Ticker) -- It's been 3 1/2 years since the 
Calgary Flames played at the St. Pete Times Forum.  They
certainly were not intimidated by the unfamiliar surroundings.

Captain Jarome Iginla and Kristian Huselius each tallied hat
tricks and defenseman Dion Phaneuf added five assists as the
Flames won a wild one over the Tampa Bay Lightning, 9-6, on
Thursday.

Making their first trip to Tampa since Game Seven of the 2004
Stanley Cup Finals, the Flames combined with the Lightning for
seven goals in the first period alone - more than the total of
any game during their Finals series.

"It was definitely a strange game," Iginla said.  "We've had a
lot of different ones against these guys over the years."

Huselius got Calgary on the board first at 4:38 of the first,
when he took a pass from Daymond Langkow along the right wing
boards and skated to the middle of the ice before firing a wrist
shot past goaltender Johan Holmqvist for a 1-0 advantage.

Vincent Lecavalier tied the game at 7:58, when he worked a
2-on-1 with Vaclav Prospal before firing a one-timer past
netminder Miikka Kiprusoff's glove side from the right faceoff
circle.

The Lightning took a brief 2-1 lead 10 seconds later on tough
guy Andre Roy's third goal of the season - and second in as many
games.  It was the two quickest goals at home in franchise
history for Tampa Bay.

But the lead would not hold as the Flames poured in three goals
over the next five minutes to take a 4-2 advantage.

"I think, obviously, both teams are skilled offensively, but I
think, for us anyways, just not protecting the middle and giving
them too many scoring chances from right in front of our net
and them capitalizing on them," Lightning rookie defenseman Mike
Lundin said.

"It was a fluky game, lot of bouncing pucks and stuff.  We
didn't quite bear down on them maybe quite enough."

Tampa Bay coach John Tortorella pulled Holmqvist after Langkow's
tally with 6:55 remaining in the period capped the three-goal
outburst.  Holmqvist, who made just two saves on six shots, was
replaced by Marc Denis.

"Just right from the start, the goals, (Huselius) had some great
goals to get us a boost and to give up a two-goal lead on the
road (and still win)," Iginla said.  "I thought Phaneuf was a
big boost for us there.

"It feels good, you know what, anytime you win.  It wasn't by
the book.  Both sides were making some mistakes, there were a
lot of bouncing pucks that were turning into 2-on-1s and
breakaways."

The Lightning fought back to tie the game at 4-4 as Martin St.
Louis and Prospal tallied, but Huselius' third goal of the night
put the Flames ahead with 7:44 remaining in the second.  It
marked the first hat trick of the Swede's career.

Tampa Bay battled to knot the contest on two more occasions, but
Iginla - who also had an assist - took over in the final
period, scoring three times to notch his sixth career hat trick.
He now has 20 goals on the season and ranks second in the
league with 43 points.

"You don't like getting scored on," Phaneuf said.  "That's the
bottom line, but sometimes those games, it's the way it goes.
It's just a big win for our hockey club, and a character win,
too.  Those games aren't the easiest to play in.

"They're back and forth, back and forth, back and forth.  It's a
must-win game for us, and we have to win games at this time of
the year and keep taking strides to push into the playoffs."

Phaneuf entered the contest with just 12 assists in 31 games
this season but set up five of the last eight goals of the night
for the Flames.

Lecavalier finished with a goal and two assists, increasing his
NHL-leading points total to 48.  St. Louis added two tallies and
an assist while defenseman Shane O'Brien collected three
assists.

"It was just one of those nights," O'Brien said.  "I gave it to
guys and they put it in the net.  I didn't do anything special.
It was a weird night.  Unfortunately, we gave up nine, so
figure that out.  It was one of those nights you can't explain,
but you've got to forget about it and move on."]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[Calgary (13-13-5) at Tampa Bay (14-14-3)        7:30 pm EST

TAMPA, Florida (Ticker) - The Calgary Flames have a
four-year-old score to settle with the Tampa Bay Lightning.

The Flames make their first regular visit to Tampa since the
2003-04 season to meet the Lightning on Thursday.

Tampa Bay beat Calgary in the Stanley Cup Finals that same
season, overcoming a 3-2 series deficit to capture the
franchise's lone championship.

The Flames will be entering this contest with some momentum
after notching their second straight win - a 2-1 shootout win
over Florida - on Tuesday.  Jarome Iginla scored the tying goal
with 10 seconds left in regulation.

Two nights earlier, Cory Sarich and Daymond Langkow each tallied
third-period goals en route to a 3-2 win over the Chicago
Blackhawks.

The Lightning are seeking their Eastern Conference-best 12th
home win on Thursday.  The team is coming off a 3-2 win over
shootout victory over Montreal on Tuesday, a game in which Brad
Richards - the 2004 Conn Smythe Award winner - scored the
decisive goal.]]></description>
