D Connor Murphy played in front of his father,
longtime blue-liner Gord Murphy, who is an assistant coach with
the Flyers.
G Corey Crawford made 35 saves to earn his first shutout of the
season and the 22nd shutout of his career. Chicago pulled away
for a 3-0 win over Philadelphia on Wednesday night at the United
Center.
C Jonathan Toews increased Chicago's lead to 2-0 when he scored
on a breakaway with 10:42 to go in the second period. Flyers
defenseman Robert Hagg whiffed on a shot attempt from near the
blue line, and Toews seized the puck and sprinted down the ice
before beating Elliott with a backhand shot.
F Artem Anisimov started the scoring binge with a power-play
goal. He won a faceoff in the offensive zone and skated toward
the front of the crease, where he punched in a rebound for his
fourth goal.
