Left winger Matt Beleskey, defenseman Hampus Lindholm and center
Nate Thompson scored for Anaheim. Center Ryan Getzlaf added two
assists, as did right winger Corey Perry, whose 13 playoff points
lead the league.
Anaheim goalie Frederik Andersen posted his first career playoff
shutout, making 30 saves in the process.
The Ducks are now 6-0 in this year's playoffs, marking the fourth
time this season they have had a win streak of six games or more.
They also won their final regular-season game, meaning this is also
their third streak of seven victories.
The Flames turned to backup goalie Karri Ramo for his first career
postseason start and he rewarded coach Bob Hartley by turning away
31 shots in a loss and keeping his team in the game during a
lopsided first period.
The Ducks jumped out to a 1-0 lead 7:37 into the game as Anaheim
out-shot Calgary 20-9 in the first period.

Right winger Jakob Silfverberg shipped a puck ahead to center Ryan
Kesler, who found Beleskey in the slot for a one-timer. Beleskey has
a goal in both games of the series.
The series shifts to Calgary for Game Three on Tuesday.
