CALGARY, Alberta (AP) Lawson Crouse scored twice and theย Utah Hockey Clubย rallied to beat theย Calgary Flamesย 5-3 on Thursday night to end a five-game winless streak.

Logan Cooley, Clayton Keller, and Kevin Stenlund – into an empty net – also scored to help Utah improve to 17-15-6. Karel Vejmelka made 23 saves.

Blake Coleman, Connor Zary, and Brayden Pachal scored for Calgary, and Dan Vladar made 21 saves.

Down 3-2 after 40 minutes, Utah scored twice early in the third with goals less than two minutes apart. Keller steered in Olli Maattaโ€™s point shot to tie it at 47 seconds. Crouse gave Utah the lead at 2:35 when he took a pass from Nick Bjugstad and beat Vladar.

Utah: An illness is working its way through the locker room. Keller missed Utahโ€™s game Tuesday game with the bug and Matias Maccelli – who took Kellerโ€™s spot on the top line – missed his first game of the season Thursday.

Flames: Calgary lost the services of Nazem Kadri for an extended period. After a physical shift in the second period where Kadri battled back and forth with Liam Oโ€™Brien, both players were assessed 10-minute misconducts for their continued jawing after the whistle. Utahโ€™s tying goal and go-ahead goals in the third came while Kadri was still serving the penalty.

Calgary dropped to 10-1-1 when leading after two periods.

Both teams are back in action Saturday night. Utah will be at Dallas, and Calgary is hosting Nashville.
