CALGARY, Alberta — The Wild's latest meltdown wasn't as dramatic as the previous one, but it stung more.
After recovering from a four-goal, third period collapse a game earlier at Dallas, the Wild didn't bounce back from blowing a two-goal lead to Calgary until late in the third period but were still dropped 5-3 on Wednesday in front of 17,562 at Scotiabank Saddledome to end their season-high four-game win streak with only their second loss over the past eight.
The Flames' Rasmus Andersson scored only 12 seconds after Jon Merrill delivered the tying goal to quickly extinguish the Wild's rally after Calgary's earlier comeback in 2:55 in the second period.
