  "account": "The Carolina Hurricanes suffered their first loss in seven games, ending a streak, as they faced off against the Calgary Flames in a 3-2 victory at the Scotiabank Saddledome. The Flames mirrored the same score of their win against the Winnipeg Jets just the day prior. Key Hurricanes players Jordan Staal and Taylor Hall were absent, as was Mark Jankowski, who had been sidelined due to a lower-body injury. Coach Rod Brind'Amour announced that Jankowski would be sent back to Raleigh for further evaluation of his injury.\n\nThe game mirrored the one against the Jets, with both the first and second periods ending in a 0-0 and 2-2 tie, respectively. Jesperi Kotkaniemi scored first for the Flames, assisted by Nicolas Deslauriers and Eric Robinson. The final 90 seconds of the second period saw three goals: Matvei Gridin scored for the Flames, Morgan Frost scored for the Hurricanes after a delay of game penalty against Reilly, and Jalen Chatfield tied the game for Carolina.\n\nIn the third period, Yegor Sharangovich scored the sole goal for the Flames, but the Hurricanes couldn't capitalize on an extra attacker to send the game into overtime. Devin Cooley nearly scored with the extra attacker but was prevented from doing so. Carole Blake appeared shaken following a hit from Yan Kuznetsov, but returned to play without any issues. This marked the final time the Hurricanes played at the Scotiabank Saddledome, as the team will be moving to a new arena next season.",
