Morgan Frost scored his first career overtime-winning goal to give the visiting Calgary Flames a 2-1 victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday.
Blake Coleman also scored for the Flames, who have won four of five games.
Goaltender Dustin Wolf stopped 20 shots.
Adrian Kempe replied for the Kings, who have dropped two straight games and dropped five of their last 11 in extra time (4-2-5).
Goalie Darcy Kuemper provided a sparkling performance with 36 saves, including 13 in a perfect first period.
Frost -- whose father, Andy, the former longtime public address announcer at Toronto Maple Leafs games, delivered the starting lineup to the team as part of Calgary's Fathers' trip -- finished the game on a high note. He and Jonathan Huberdeau completed a perfect give-and-go during a 3-on-1 rush 66 seconds into the extra period.
Calgary is now on a 9-4-2 run.
Kings captain Anze Kopitar appeared to have scored early in overtime but it was ruled he had kicked the puck into the net.
Despite Calgary holding an early edge in momentum, Kempe opened the scoring at 11:10 of the first period when he unloaded a rocket of a one-timer from the right faceoff dot set up by Alex Laferriere's cross-ice pass.
The Flames continued to hold the momentum -- outshooting the Kings by an 8-0 count in the first five minutes of the second period -- and were rewarded when Coleman tied the clash with a short-handed breakaway tally at 6:41 of the frame. Coleman is tied with Kings forward Joel Armia with three short-handed goals this season.
From there it was the goaltenders shining in the spotlight. Kuemper made a bunch of solid stops while the Flames -- the league's lowest-scoring team --peppered him consistently. He especially had Matt Coronato looking skyward a couple of times.
Wolf was not as busy, but provided a save-of-the-year candidate when he made a sprawling catch on Kevin Fiala's redirect while on an odd-man rush when the Flames trailed 1-0.
The Kings were without Phillip Danault due to illness and Calgary captain Mikael Backlund did not play after the second period.
