Alex Nylander scored twice as the NHLBlackhawks topped the NHLFlames to snap a five-game winless skid.

After entering the night with two goals in his previous 34 games, Nylander scored twice in the second period as Chicago took advantage of several defensive miscues to outscore the Flames 4-1 in the middle stanza, despite being outshot 14-7.

Sam Bennett and Elias Lindholm had two goals apiece for Calgary . The Flames home-ice woes continue as they are now winless in their last five games at the Scotiabank Saddledome. With Cam Talbot on in relief, Nylander made it 6-3 at 18:14. The second of two Chicago goals in 27 seconds, another Flames turnover behind the net led to rookie Matthew Highmore setting up Nylander in the slot.

Despite Talbot coming off a 44-save shutout on Thursday in Anaheim, interim head coach Geoff Ward started Rittich, who gave up a goal 30 seconds in when Toews skated down the wing and put a slapshot over his shoulder.In what would be a theme to the evening for the home side, a turnover behind the net — this one by Michael Stone — allowed Toews to set up Kubalik for a one-timer, the goal coming just after a power play expired.
