Monday, November 10th, 2008 | NHL, Sports
The Chicago Blackhakws won their 4th straight game at home and still have not suffered a home loss in regulation at the United Center. The Blackhawks defeated the Calgary Flames. The Blackhawks took a 3-0 lead on goals by Martin Havlat and Aaron Johnson in the 1st period and a goal by Patrick Kane in the 2nd period. After the Flames cut the lead to 3-1 at the end of the 2nd period, the Blackhawks out the game away in the 3rd period with an offensive barage. Jonathan Toews, Kris Versteeg and Troy Brouwer each scored goals in the 3rd period to put away the 6-1 victory for the Blackhawks. Once again, the Blackhawks used a balance attack, as all 6 goals were scored by a different Blackhawks skater. Cristobal Huet shined in net, saving all but 1 of the Flames 23 shots on goal.
The Blackhawks now have 17 points, good for a tie for 5th place in the Western Conference. Next up for the Blackhawks is a battle against the Boston Bruins at the United Center on Wednesday night.
