The game was scoreless until late in the second period when Kevin Bieksa’s cross-checking penalty gave the Flames their fourth power play, and Sean Monahan the first goal of the game.
Backlund added a second goal in the third.
Newly-signed forward Jaromir Jagr did not dress for a third game.
There were fears the game would have to be postponed due to wildfires burning in the surrounding area, but it went ahead as planned.
