DETROIT -- Jiri Hudler scored two goals, including the game-winner, against his former team, helping the Calgary Flames to a 5-2 win against the Detroit Red Wings at Joe Louis Arena on Friday.
Sean Monahan had a goal and an assist, and Matt Stajan and Mason Raymond scored for Calgary (36-26-4), which scored five unanswered goals to win its third straight.
Dennis Wideman had two assists, and Jonas Hiller made 33 saves.
Justin Abdelkader scored the goals for Detroit (36-16-11), which had a three-game winning streak end. Erik Cole had two assists for his first points with the Red Wings, and Jimmy Howard made 19 saves.
The Flames scored twice in the second period to take a 3-2 lead.
Stajan tied it at 6:05 with his fifth goal. He beat Howard with a one-timer from the top of the left circle after the puck caromed off the end boards.
Hudler, who began his career and played parts of seven seasons with Detroit, gave Calgary a 3-2 lead with 6:50 left.
He scored on a wrist shot from the bottom of the right circle, between the legs of defenseman Niklas Kronwall, that beat Howard high on the long side. It came after Hudler carried the puck from inside the blue line and was unchallenged when he got into the circle.
Raymond scored 1:50 into the third period to make it 4-2. Howard got a piece of the shot from the left circle but not enough of it.
Hudler's 23rd goal of the season was into an empty net with 1:06 remaining.
Abdelkader gave Detroit a 2-0 lead less than nine minutes into the game.
He scored on a breakaway at 3:05, beating Hiller high to the glove (right-hand) side. Abdelkader was sprung by a one-time, headman pass from Henrik Zetterberg from the corner in the Red Wings zone.
Abdelkader's power-play goal at 8:12 made it 2-0. He tipped in a pass from Zetterberg for his 16th goal.
Monahan's power-play goal with 9:33 left in the first period made it 2-1. He picked up a rebound, moved across the top of the crease to put Howard out of position, and put a shot through the legs of Kronwall, who was trying to block the shot in the crease.
