Elias Lindholm couldn't resist rubbing it in after his Calgary Flames beat the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday.

The Flames forward - and former member of the Hurricanes - mimicked his old team's Viking clap after a 4-3 win in Raleigh.

"My name came up twice on the Jumbotron and I got booed, so I think it's a nice way to end it," Lindholm told reporters postgame.

He extended his point streak to 10 games with a goal in the first period.

Fellow former Hurricanes Derek Ryan and Noah Hanifin also scored for the Flames, while ex-Calgary defenseman Dougie Hamilton tallied for Carolina.

The Hurricanes traded Lindholm and Hanifin to the Flames in exchange for Hamilton, Micheal Ferland, and defensive prospect Adam Fox during the draft last June.
