<p>Calgary Flames forward @Elias Lindholm is red-hot.</p>
<p></p>
<p>On the heels of <a href="https://flamesnation.ca/2022/02/21/watch-monahan-snipes-from-the-wing-to-open-the-scoring-against-winnipeg/">being named</a> the National Hockey League&#8217;s first star of the week, Lindholm scored the go-ahead goal with 43 seconds remaining in the third period of Monday&#8217;s game against the Winnipeg Jets.</p>
<p>Lindholm extended his personal goal-scoring streak to eight games on the play, tying Kent Nilsson and Gary Roberts for the Flames franchise record.</p>

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Wow. 43 seconds left. Elias Lindholm in the record books. He scores for an eighth straight game to tie a franchise record.</p>

<p>While it was his first goal of the game on the official scoresheet, it was Lindholm&#8217;s second time putting the puck past Jets goaltender @Connor Hellebuyck.</p>
<p>With the score tied 1–1 during the second period, Lindholm swatted a deflected pass by @Matthew Tkachuk into a yawning cage. @Oliver Kylington would have picked up the secondary assist on <a href="https://twitter.com/mikeFAIL/status/1495886254587613184">the goal</a> &#8230; except it was called back on a challenge after the officials determined the play was barely offside.</p>
<p>The Jets also elected to challenge Lindholm&#8217;s go-ahead marker in the third period, this time claiming the Flames had interfered with Hellebuyck prior to the goal. This time, the officials ruled in Calgary&#8217;s favour.</p>

<p>@Johnny Gaudreau picked up the lone helper on Lindholm&#8217;s 23rd goal of the season (and his ninth in his last eight games), which gave the Flames a late 2–1 lead.</p>
<p>@Sean Monahan and @Tyler Toffoli also scored for the Flames&#8217; in Monday&#8217;s 3–1 win. @Jacob Markstrom made 22 saves to secure the 30th win of the season for his team (and his 23rd victory of the year). The Flames outshot the Jets 31–23.</p>
<p>Riding a 10-game win streak (tied for the longest in franchise history), the 30–13–6 Flames will return to action in Vancouver on Thursday to take on the 23–22–6 Canucks.</p>
