DALLAS (AP) — Blake Coleman and Elias Lindholm scored 29 seconds apart early in a four-goal third period to put the Calgary Flames ahead in their 7-4 win over the Dallas Stars on Friday night.

The Flames got even at 4-4 when Coleman, who is from nearby Plano, Texas, scored 1:53 into the third from beside the net when he knocked in the puck that Stars captain Jamie Benn had deflected with his hand after MacKenzie Weegar's shot.

Calgary got the go-ahead goal and first lead of the game when Jake Oettinger got his glove on a shot, but didn't secure the puck and Lindholm was able to knock it under the goalie. Coleman later had a secondary assist on Mikael Backlund's goal that gave the Flames a two-goal lead, and Nazem Kadri added an empty-netter late.

Seven different players had goals for the Flames, whose season high was also the most allowed by Dallas. Yegor Sharangovich had a goal and two assists, while A.J. Greer and Adam Ruzicka both added a goal and an assist.

The Flames are 6-2-2 in their last 10 games. All of those are are since a 4-3 home loss to Dallas on Nov. 1, in their 10th game of the season when they were 2-7-1.

Wyatt Johnston had two goals for the Stars, with Jamie Benn and Evgenii Dadonov assisting on both of them. Jason Robertson added a goal and an assist, and Joe Pavelski had a power-play goal.

Two days after an overtime loss to Las Vegas in a rematch of last year's Western Conference Final, the Stars wrapped up a five-game homestand with a 2-2-1 record.

Calgary goalie Jacob Markstrom had 24 saves. Oettinger stopped 20 shots.

The 20-year-old Johnston has played in all 101 of Dallas’ regular-season games, plus 19 playoff games, since making his NHL debut at the start of last season. It was the second time he scored two goals in the last six games — he had none in the span between those games.

Johnston’s second goal, his ninth of the season, came after he won a faceoff in the defensive end about five minutes into the second period. A few minutes later, the Stars led 4-2 on the ninth goal by Pavelski, the 39-year-old veteran whose family Johnston lives with.
