Flames squander chance to keep pace in Pacific with humiliating loss to Blackhawks. (EricFrancis)

The Flames have gone 0-4-1 in that stretch, erasing the momentum of last week’s chest-puffing road trip through the west that saw them go 3-1 to stay in the thick of the NHL’s closest divisional race.

“One thing I know for sure is if you’re not playing at the same intensity level as your opposition – if your compete level is not where it needs to be – it’s an awful tough league to play in. I don’t think right now at home we need to look any further than that. Let’s start there and then we can move on.”

Mental mistakes led to two other goals as a Michael Stone pinch in the opening minute led to Toews’ goal, followed early in the second by a Dillon Dube pass picked off by Nylander — who made no mistake to chase Rittich from the game with the score 4-2. “We just came off a huge road trip for our team – it’s frustrating, for whatever reason, we’re not getting the wins we should at home,” said Bennett.Bennett, who missed two games last week with the flu, made a rare start at centre due to the absence of Derek Ryan — who now has the flu, too. Bennett whacked in a brilliance pass from Dube two minutes into the game to tie it 1-1.

EricFrancis Thank you Blackhawks!

EricFrancis Chicago played this great against the Vancouver Canucks. Except the Canucks have a wall in net they purchased at Ikea.
