PHILADELPHIA — Jonathan Toews had a goal and an assist, Petr Mrazek made 37 saves and the Chicago Blackhawks won for the first time in the regular season in Philadelphia in more than 26 years with a 4-1 victory over the Flyers. Before Thursday, Chicago hadn't won a regular-season game in Philadelphia since Nov. 9, 1996. The drought comes with a huge asterisk, though, as the Blackhawks clinched the Stanley Cup championship in 2010 in Game 6 in Philadelphia. Reese Johnson and Tyler Johnson also scored, and Philipp Kurashev had an empty-netter for Chicago.
