While a scoring binge by the youngsters was nice, it was a pair of messages sent by Adam Klapka’s fight that set the tone for the Flames on Friday.
Adam Klapka sparked the Calgary Flames with an early heavyweight fight victory over Curtis Douglas in a 6-2 win against the Seattle Kraken. Following the fight, an ensuing power play led to an early goal that helped fuel Calgary's offense. Flames coach Ryan Huska praised Klapka for providing crucial energy that set the tone after a sluggish start.
Matt Coronato tallied four points, while Joel Farabee scored three points and Matvei Gridin and Morgan Frost contributed two points each. Klapka also addressed past criticism regarding his team's physical responses, noting that he and Jake Middleton previously challenged opponents when appropriate but prioritized smart tactical play.
