Nazem Kadri's overtime goal gave the host Calgary Flames a 4-3 comeback victory over the Dallas Stars on Thursday.

Defensemen Chris Tanev, Noah Hanifin and MacKenzie Weegar also scored for the Flames, and goalie Jacob Markstrom made 13 saves, including a crucial pair on Matt Duchene with his team down by one goal halfway through the third. Markstrom also collected an assist on the winner.

Calgary's Jonathan Huberdeau posted two assists.

Mason Marchment scored twice, one on a penalty shot, and Thomas Harley added a single for the Stars, who have an 8-1-2 road mark.

Dallas goalie Scott Wedgewood stopped 32 shots and forward Joe Pavelski collected one assist to boost his points streak to eight games, in which he has netted five goals and nine points.

As he was headed to the net, Kadri deflected Huberdeau's shot at 1:01 of overtime frame for his fifth of the campaign to complete the comeback.

The clubs, who have been known for high-scoring meetings the past few seasons, both claimed and then relinquished a lead in a roller-coaster affair.

Harley opened the scoring with his fourth of the season at the 4:51 mark when he finished a rush up ice with a shot from the slot, but Tanev replied with his first of the season at 8:02 when his pass to the front of the net banked into the cage off a defender to snap a 51-game drought.

Hanifin's fifth of the campaign put the Flames ahead at 15:30 of the opening frame, coming when he finished a flurry created off a turnover, but Marchment tied the clash by pouncing on a loose puck with 60 seconds remaining in the frame.

Marchment notched his second of the night 1:49 into the third period, burying a penalty shot for his sixth of the campaign. However, minutes after the Flames thought they had tied the game with five minutes remaining, but it was ruled a hand-pass after a Dallas challenge, Weegar tied the game with a floating point shot net for his sixth of the season with 2:41 remaining in regulation.

Before the game, the Flames traded defenseman Nikita Zadorov to the Vancouver Canucks for a pair of draft choices.
