Nazem Kadri had two goals and an assist Monday afternoon as the Calgary Flames rallied from a 3-1 deficit to post a 6-3 victory over the Winnipeg Jets.

Oliver Kylington, Blake Coleman, Jonathan Huberdeau and Andrew Mangiapane also scored for Calgary (26-25-5), which snaps a three-game losing streak. Rasmus Andersson had a pair of assists.

Sean Monahan scored all three goals for Winnipeg (33-15-5), which had its three-game win streak snapped. The Jets remain in third place in the Central Division, one point back of the Colorado Avalanche. Winnipeg has three games in hand.

Pulled in his previous outing, it was a solid bounceback game for Flames' netminder Jacob Markstrom as he made 28 stops to improve to 18-15-2.

Connor Hellebuyck had 28 stops to fall to 26-11-3. Hellebuyck entered the game on a three-game win streak in which he had only allowed three goals on 90 shots.

It was also the first time in 32 starts that Hellebuyck has surrendered more than three goals in a game. The last time was Nov. 2 when he gave up four goals against Vegas.
