| “The Blackhawks are on a 5 game road losing streak, losing big in Edmonton last night they will come out strong. Over the past 3-3-1 stretch the Flames have been held to two goals or fewer in six of those seven games. Tonight the 3 game losing streak at the Dome comes to an end.3-1 Flames – Iginla, Jokinen, & Bouwmeester |
