Calgary, AB (My Sportsbook) - Jarome Iginla tallied twice and Eric Nystrom notched the game-winner late in the third period as Calgary wasted a three- goal lead but recovered to post a 6-4 victory over Chicago in Game 4 of their Western Conference quarterfinal from Pengrowth Saddledome, evening the series at two games apiece. Nystrom added two helpers and Olli Jokinen posted his first two career postseason goals with an assist for the Flames, who took a pair of games at home after dropping two straight on the road to begin the round. Miikka Kiprusoff got the win despite allowing four goals on 32 shots. Kris Versteeg posted a goal and two assists for the Blackhawks, who have not been tied by an opponent after winning the first two games of any playoff series since the 1971 Stanley Cup Finals -- a seven-game loss to the Montreal Canadiens. Samuel Pahlsson and Cam Barker added a goal and one helper each, but Nikolai Khabibulin surrendered five goals on only 26 shots in the loss. The series shifts back to Chicago and United Center for Game 5 on Saturday.
