The Colorado Avalanche fell 4-3 in overtime to the Calgary Flames Thursday night; however, Alex Tanguay scored a highlight-reel goal to give the Avs a 3-2 lead in the third period.

Matt Duchene and Nick Holden had the other goals for the Avs, who have failed to pick up a win in back-to-back games on their three-game road trip.

Dennis Wideman had a two-goal night for the Calgary Flames. He now has 10 on the season, which matches his goal totals for the past two seasons combined. He had 11 in 2011-12 while with the Washington Capitals and a career-high of 13 goals, which reached in 2007-08 and 2008-09 while a member of the Boston Bruins.

Curtis Glencross also scored for the flames.

Johnny Gaudreau had the overtime winner.

The win was Bob Hartley’s 400th of his coaching career.
