Alex Tanguay scored the lone goal for Calgary as they fell 2-1 to Buffalo on Friday.
Tanguay scored his third goal of the season in defeat. The Flames did not have many great scoring chances despite recording 30 shots. They did have a few flurries that ended in crossbars and posts but alas only Tanguay got one by Jhonas Enroth. Jay Bouwmeester and Matt Stajan picked up assists on the goal.

The Calgary Flames winger scored his second goal of the season with about 30 seconds left in the game.
Alex Tanguay increased his team-leading points total to 9. The veteran forward is producing nicely even as common linemate Jarome Iginla struggles in the early part of 2011-12. Who knows if Tanguay will justify the big contract he received over the long haul, but so far he's worth the money. Snatch him up if he's inexplicably a free agent in your league.

Alex Tanguay's five-year contract includes a limited no-trade clause.
Tanguay is required to submit a list of 10 teams he would be willing to be traded to every year. "For me, term was really important," Tanguay said. "I was looking for stability for my family. Definitely five years was a little bit beyond my expectations, but sometimes you have to find ways to make deals work." He will come with a $3.5 million annual cap hit, which isn't bad for a player that scored 22 goals and 69 points last season. He works well with Jarome Iginla, which should help him surpass the 60-point marker again next season.
