TAMPA, Florida (Ticker) -- It's been 3 1/2 years since theCalgary Flames played at the St. Pete Times Forum. Theycertainly were not intimidated by the unfamiliar surroundings.

Captain Jarome Iginla and Kristian Huselius each tallied hattricks and defenseman Dion Phaneuf added five assists as theFlames won a wild one over the Tampa Bay Lightning, 9-6, onThursday.


Making their first trip to Tampa since Game Seven of the 2004Stanley Cup Finals, the Flames combined with the Lightning forseven goals in the first period alone - more than the total ofany game during their Finals series.


Huselius got Calgary on the board first at 4:38 of the first,when he took a pass from Daymond Langkow along the right wingboards and skated to the middle of the ice before firing a wristshot past goaltender Johan Holmqvist for a 1-0 advantage.

Vincent Lecavalier tied the game at 7:58, when he worked a2-on-1 with Vaclav Prospal before firing a one-timer pastnetminder Miikka Kiprusoff's glove side from the right faceoffcircle.


The Lightning took a brief 2-1 lead 10 seconds later on toughguy Andre Roy's third goal of the season - and second in as manygames. It was the two quickest goals at home in franchisehistory for Tampa Bay.


But the lead would not hold as the Flames poured in three goalsover the next five minutes to take a 4-2 advantage.

Tampa Bay coach John Tortorella pulled Holmqvist after Langkow'stally with 6:55 remaining in the period capped the three-goaloutburst. Holmqvist, who made just two saves on six shots, wasreplaced by Marc Denis.


The Lightning fought back to tie the game at 4-4 as Martin St.Louis and Prospal tallied, but Huselius' third goal of the nightput the Flames ahead with 7:44 remaining in the second. Itmarked the first hat trick of the Swede's career.


Tampa Bay battled to knot the contest on two more occasions, butIginla - who also had an assist - took over in the finalperiod, scoring three times to notch his sixth career hat trick.He now has 20 goals on the season and ranks second in theleague with 43 points.


Phaneuf entered the contest with just 12 assists in 31 gamesthis season but set up five of the last eight goals of the nightfor the Flames.


Lecavalier finished with a goal and two assists, increasing hisNHL-leading points total to 48. St. Louis added two tallies andan assist while defenseman Shane O'Brien collected threeassists.
