Connor Zary scored and added an assist as the Calgary Flames topped the Philadelphia Flyers 5-1 on Wednesday night, extending their home winning streak to five games.

Calgary, which improved to 10-1-1 in its past 12 home games, wrapped up December with a 9-4-0 record.

Mikael Backlund, Jonathan Huberdeau, Rasmus Andersson and Yegor Sharangovich also scored for the Flames, who are 15-4-2 in games played on New Year’s Eve since the 2000-01 season.

Matt Coronato and MacKenzie Weegar each added a pair of assists for Calgary, which has won five of its past six games overall. Flames goaltender Dustin Wolf made 25 saves to extend his home win streak to seven games.

Travis Konecny tallied for the Flyers, who lost for just the second time in five games. Samuel Ersson stopped 20 shots.

Zary made it 5-1 at 9:37 of the third, picking up the loose puck off the Nikita Grebenkin turnover behind the Flyers’ net and snapping a shot past Ersson.

The Flames scored three times in the second period to open a 4-1 lead.

Calgary went up 2-0 at 3:08 of the middle frame as Huberdeau’s shot hit Flyers defenseman Jamie Drysdale and got past Ersson.

Konecny got the Flyers on the board at 8:49 of the second period as Flames forward Nazem Kadri knocked in the rebound off Konecny’s shot.

Andersson restored the Flames’ two-goal lead on a 5-on-3 power play, one-timing a Zary pass by Ersson.

Calgary made it a three-goal margin on a power play at 17:52 of the second as Sharangovich snapped a shot past Ersson.

Philadelphia outshot Calgary 4-3 in the first period, but it was the Flames with a 1-0 lead after 20 minutes.

Backlund opened the scoring at 13:30, one-timing a Coronato feed glove-side past Ersson. With the goal, the Flames captain extended his point streak to six games (five goals, four assists).

On Wednesday afternoon, the Flyers made a minor league trade, acquiring forward Philip Tomasino from the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for defenseman Egor Zamula.
