Anaheim wins 21st straight home game against Calgary
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 26 - 11 - 2015

Rickard Rakell and Corey Perry scored two goals apiece as the Anaheim Ducks rallied from a third-period deficit for their 21st straight home victory over the Calgary Flames, 5-3, Tuesday.
Captain Ryan Getzlaf tied a team record with five assists for the Ducks, who haven't lost a regular-season game to Calgary at Honda Center since Jan. 19, 2004.
The Ducks' home streak against the Flames is the NHL's longest in a two-team series since Philadelphia won an NHL-record 23 straight over Pittsburgh in the 1980s.
Michael Frolik scored two goals and Sam Bennett had a goal and an assist for the Flames.
In the only other NHL game Tuesday, Jean-Gabriel Pageau scored two third-period goals as the Ottawa Senators held off the Dallas Stars 7-4.
Ottawa was outshot 37-20 but scored three unassisted goals after takeaways, one on the power play and another short-handed by Pageau.
Craig Anderson made 33 saves in his third straight win, including two shutouts.
NHL leader Jamie Benn scored his 15th and 16th goals for Dallas.
Rangers most valuable club
The New York Rangers, worth an estimated $1.2 billion, were named Tuesday as the National Hockey League's most valuable team by Forbes magazine, replacing the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The story on the magazine's website said the average value of an NHL club was $505 million, up three percent from last year.
The Rangers, on top for the first time since 2004, were bolstered by generating the most revenue in the NHL last season at $229 million, boosted by a $1 billion renovation of home rink Madison Square Garden and runs to the 2014 Stanley Cup Finals and 2015 Eastern Conference Finals.
The $95 million the Rangers made from premium seats and advertising led the NHL.
The Montreal Canadiens improved to second at $1.18 billion with a jump of 18 percent in value despite the drag of the Canadian exchange rate compared to US funds. They were the only one of Canada's seven NHL clubs to rise in value over the past year, in large measure due to a new local telecast deal that will pay $68 million Canadian a season, more than double their prior such income.
Toronto, which fell 12 percent in value to third at $1.15 billion, had been on top since 2006. The Leafs have reached the playoffs only once since 2006 and the team's 13-year sellout streak at Air Canada Centre was snapped last March.
Revenue averaged $133 million per team for the 2014-15 season, an eight percent jump from the prior season.
Chicago was fourth, up 12 percent to $925 million with a club that has won three Stanley Cups in six seasons.
Some teams lost money but rose in value. Tampa Bay lost in the NHL Final and did not turn a profit but jumped 15 percent in value to $260 million, 25th overall, and boosted season ticket sales by 3,000.
At the bottom of the list were the Florida Panthers at $190 million.
