CALGARY, Alberta, March 10 (UPI) -- Alex Tanguay had a goal and three assists Friday and Jarome Iginla scored a goal and added two assists in the Calgary Flames' 5-3 victory over Winnipeg.

The Jets lost their second consecutive game but remained tied with Washington for the last playoff berth in the Eastern Conference.

The Flames jumped to a 3-0 lead in the first period but Winnipeg scored twice in the final 3 minutes to make it 3-2 at the first intermission. The Jets did not score again until Enstrom's slap shot at 13:48 of the third period.
