Joel Hanley and Kevin Rooney scored for the Flames (27-21-8), who had lost three straight and four of five. Dustin Wolf made 27 saves. Tyler Toffoli had a goal and an assist, and Macklin Celebrini scored for the Sharks (15-36-7), who have lost five in a row and 11 of the past 12 games. Alexandar Georgiev made 33 saves.

Hanley wasn’t the only unlikely offensive hero for the Flames on Sunday. Kevin Rooney also pitched in with his fourth of the season in the second period. It was obviously an important goal, but it was also a rightful reward for a solid night of effort from the Flames’ fourth-line.
