Scouting: Flames @ Blackhawks

Calgary Flames at the United Center, 7 p.m.

TV: Versus

Radio: WGN 720-AM

What to watch: The Flames are off to a 4-1 start under new coach Brent Sutter thanks largely to the play of goalie Miikka Kiprusoff and a power play that is 7-for-15. Calgary will be without defenseman Cory Sarich (ankle) and winger Davis Moss (undisclosed).

Last season: The two teams meet for the first time since the Hawks eliminated the Flames in six games in the first round of the playoffs. The Hawks also swept the regular-season series 4-0, outscoring the Flames 19-7.

Next: Edmonton Oilers at the United Center, 7:30 p.m. Wednesday.
