"Miikka Kiprusoff recorded the milestone win, against his former team no less.

Olli Jokinen was the hero.

Kiprusoff became just the 27th member of the NHL's 300-win club, but his Finnish countryman led the way with three goals and four points to pace the Calgary Flames to Wednesday night's entertaining 4-3 victory over the San Jose Sharks.

Jokinen's seventh career hat-trick included the game winner.

"He was making sure Kipper had a big night," said Jarome Iginla, Calgary's other marksman. "Olli was great. He's been playing well for a while and you can see him start to feel it."

The Flames improve to 25-22-7 to move one point back of the Minnesota Wild for the eighth and final playoff spot."
