Gaudreau scores two goals as Flames roar back to defeat Sharks 7-5
CALGARY — Still eight days away from playing games that matter, Johnny Gaudreau admits it would be nice to be able to fast forward to the start of the regular season.
And the Flames star left winger looks ready for it, scoring twice on Tuesday night as Calgary roared back from an early three-goal deficit to win 7-5 over the San Jose Sharks.
“It was great. Making plays. It felt good together,” said Gaudreau, who played on a line with his longtime centre Sean Monahan and free-agent signing James Neal.
“It’s hard to build chemistry with new lineups, so you have to keep battling through and keep working at it and keep going through practices and games, and I think it’s getting better and better.”
