{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Calgary, AB (SportsNetwork.com) - Lance Bouma and Markus Granlund each scored and assisted on the other's third-period goal as the Calgary Flames beat the Ottawa Senators 4-2 on Saturday.
Josh Jooris also scored in the third and collected one assist for the Flames, who have opened their five-game homestand with consecutive wins. Karri Ramo stopped 23 of 25 Ottawa shots.
"Our pressure was unbelievable. I felt we pressured their goalie and their defensemen," Flames head coach Bob Hartley said. "We deserved this win."

"We just didn't do enough to get the game going our way," Ottawa head coach Paul MacLean said.
Bouma exited the penalty box and dished to Granlund, who made a move to the backhand and roofed the puck to put Calgary up 2-1 at 2:29 of the third.
