The Wranglers fell 4-1 to the San Jose Barracuda at the Scotiabank Saddledome on Saturday, with Lucas Ciona providing the lone Calgary tally on a powerplay.
The Barracuda struck early, as Egor Afanasyev beat Ivan Prosvetov before Kasper Halttunen doubled the lead on the man-advantage.
Halttunen struck again moments later to make it 3-0, leaving the Wranglers chasing.
Calgary found a spark midway through the second when Aydar Suniev’s point shot was tapped in by Ciona, giving the homeside life and trimming the deficit to two.
