Wingers Matt Beleskey, Patrick Maroon and Emerson Etem also scored for Anaheim. Center Ryan Getzlaf contributed a goal and three assists, while defenseman Hampus Lindholm added two helpers.
Rookie center Sam Bennett netted the lone Calgary goal after the Flames had already conceded six.
Frederik Andersen cruised to victory with 34 saves, while Calgary starter Jonas Hiller let in three goals before giving way to backup Karri Ramo, who surrendered three more.
