The suddenly second place Calgary Flames head to Illinois to take on the Chicago Blackhawks. The Anaheim Ducks gained first place earlier today after scoring five unanswered goals against the Washington Capitals en route to a six to five victory (congratulations to Ryan Miller who tied John Vanbiesbrouck for most wins by an American goalie), but the Flames can pass them with a victory of any kind here tonight. Chicago currently sits well outside of the playoff picture and is tied with the Los Angeles Kings for the league’s worst goal differential which makes this the second game in a row the flames will get to challenge the team with that distinction.
