CALGARY, Alberta (Ticker) -- The Calgary Flames brought the Vancouver Canucks' four-game win streak to a screeching halt.
The Canucks do not have to wait long to exact their revenge against the Flames as the teams conclude a home-and-home series on Saturday.
Mike Cammalleri recorded a hat trick before Curtis Glencross snapped a tie with 6:31 left in the third period as Calgary forged a 4-3 victory over Vancouver on Thursday.
Captain Jarome Iginla and Daymond Langkow each had two assists and Miikka Kiprusoff made 27 saves for the Flames, who defeated the Canucks for the first time in three meetings.
Darcy Hordichuk and Mason Raymond each scored, while Daniel Sedin also tallied, but the Canucks yielded more than two goals for the second time in 11 contests.
Vancouver ranks fifth in the NHL, surrendering 2.35 goals per game, but may have to generate more offense without All-Star goaltender Roberto Luongo, who is expected back next week at the earliest after suffering a groin injury against the Pittsburgh Penguins last Saturday.
Luongo is 11-5-2 with a 2.17 goals-against average and has been replaced by Curtis Sanford, who has started the last four games and owns a 3-2-0 record and 2.66 GAA.
