Off an extended shift in the offensive zone, the Flyers opened the scoring on the afternoon as Oskar Lindblom tipped home a shot in front.

Chicago tied it off an offensive-zone draw early in the second period as Alex DeBrincat hit 150 career goals. Jonathan Toews won the draw cleanly to the left of the goal, right into the wheelhouse of DeBrincat walking across the top of the circle.

2nd - 12:39 - Dylan Strome (Patrick Kane, Dominik Kubalik)

The Blackhawks took their first lead of the afternoon later in the second as Dylan Strome netted his 10th of the season.

Strome potted a one-time bid into the open side of the goal for a 2-1 lead.

CHI: 3, PHI: 2

2nd - 18:02 - Dylan Strome

3rd - 8:28 - Cam Atkinson (Joel Farabee)

Philadelphia regained the lead a short time later off a zone entry. Joel Farabee brought the puck across the blue line and left a pass for Cam Atkinson before driving across the high slot. Atkinson put a wrister just behind the Farabee screen and past Kevin Lankinen, who didn't see the shot, for a 4-3 lead.
