Tkachuk scored twice Sunday, both on the man advantage, and Mark Giordano had the winner 52 seconds into overtime as the Flames edged the Chicago Blackhawks 4-3. Calgary’s power play was in a 2-for-31 slump when coach Glen Gulutzan made some personnel changes to his top power-play unit on Thursday. The Flames have gone 3-for-8 with the extra man in the three games since, including a perfect 2-for-2 against Chicago. In addition to earning his power play ice time, the sophomore Tkachuk has also earned himself opportunities in overtime. The Blackhawks extend their points streak against Calgary to 16 games (10-0-6), a streak that dates back to Feb. 2, 2013.
