Matthew Tkachuk scored his 40th goal, Christopher Tanev scored the tiebreaking goal in the third period, and the Flames beat the Stars 4-2 on Thursday night to win the Pacific Division title.

The Flames won their division for the eighth time in franchise history but just the third in the last 27 years.

"The team deserves it," coach Darryl Sutter said. "They've been the most consistent team in the division. They deserve to win the division."
