Dougie Hamilton scores in third, Calgary downs St. Louis 2-1
CALGARY — The Calgary Flames are becoming more confident as they keep getting rewarded for their improved play.
Dougie Hamilton scored the winner at 7:57 of the third period as Calgary pulled out a 2-1 victory over the St. Louis Blues on Wednesday.
“Believe in what we’re doing and if we’re playing well, the wins are going to come,” said Hamilton. “We just have to stick with it and we’ve done that and got rewarded the last two games.”
After Blues goaltender Carter Hutton stopped Sean Monahan’s shot from the blue line, Ivan Barbashev had the rebound on his stick when Hamilton swung at the puck and, all in one motion, knocked it off the forward’s stick and past Hutton.
