Snapshots: Huberdeau scores in debut as Flames look good in first two preseason games

“I got a little lucky on that goal, but it’s always fun to find the back of the net, even during pre-season,” Huberdeau said after a 4-0 victory over the Vancouver Canucks. “I want to be better. I want to be a really good player on this team and I think I just have to keep climbing and keep working hard.”Article content

Huberdeau, Blake Coleman, forward tryout Cody Eakin and Darryl Sutter’s son, Brett, were the lamp-lighters at the Saddledome, while Michael Stone — bidding to extend his stint as Calgary’s seventh defenceman on a PTO — provided the sudden-death snipe in a 3-2 overtime win on the West Coast. “When you get winded on the third shift of the game, that makes a difference,” said Huberdeau, who arrives in Calgary with 198 goals and 613 points on his NHL resume. “I think it’s good for at home — it’s a home advantage. And when you go on the road, the guys are saying it’s good for you, that you feel better. So I’m just going to get used to it. I’m obviously not used to being here. We still have two weeks of training camp, so it’s going to be good for the start of the season.
