Flames looks to snap three-game road skid vs. Wild

Dec 7, 2006 - 3:25 PM Calgary (13-10-2) at Minnesota (14-11-2) 8:00 pm EST

ST. PAUL, Minnesota (Ticker) - Miikka Kiprusoff and the Calgary Flames continue to be unstoppable on home ice but shaky on the road.

On Thursday, the Flames will hit the road to face the Minnesota Wild.

Kiprusoff stopped 23 shots while Daymond Langkow, defenseman Roman Hamrlik and Jarome Iginla scored goals to lift Calgary to a 3-0 victory over Carolina on Tuesday, its eighth straight win at home.

The Calgary goaltender, who entered with the fourth-highest save percentage in the league at .928, registered his fourth shutout of the season and 21st of his career.

The Flames have won three in a row overall, but despite their success at home, they have dropped three consecutive games in enemy territory.

On Tuesday, Pierre-Marc Bouchard scored the clincher in the sixth round of the shootout and Brian Rolston added a goal and an assist as the Wild snapped a four-game losing streak with a 3-2 victory over the Blackhawks.

Calgary has won six of its last seven meetings against Minnesota.
