Byline: Daily News Staff and Wire Services

Alex Zhamnov scored twice and had two assists as the Chicago Blackhawks scored five goals in the second period for a 5-4 come-from-behind win over the Florida Panthers on Wednesday night in Chicago.

Zhamnov tied the game 3-3 at 7:43 of the second with a sailing shot from the left circle and then put Chicago ahead 4-3 by directing in a pass from Kyle Calder at the edge of the crease.

Calder, who plays on Zhamnov's line, had three assists.

Tony Amonte, who also plays on the line, had a goal and two assists.

Michael Nylander and Phil Housley also scored for the Blackhawks, who outshot Florida 35-20 for the game and 18-4 in the second period.

Housley extended the Blackhawks' lead to 5-3 with 1:59 left in the period.

--Anaheim 3, Calgary 2: For the second time in a week, the Mighty Ducks erased a third-period deficit, this time in defeating the Flames in front of an announced crowd of 9,583 at the Pond.

Anaheim used goals 87 seconds apart from defenseman Pavel Trnka and center Andy McDonald to erase a 2-1 deficit.

The Ducks are now 2-21-1 when trailing after two periods. The other come-from-behind win came eight days ago, when they erased a 3-2 third-period deficit to beat the Philadelphia Flyers 5-4.

--Detroit 2, Minnesota 0: Dominik Hasek recorded his fourth shutout of the season and the 60th of his career as the Red Wings beat the Wild in St. Paul, Minn.

Hasek, who made 21 saves, spent most of his time diving on the ice, helping to hold off the Wild.

Kirk Maltby and Mathieu Dandenault scored for Detroit, both off assists from Steve Yzerman.

The Wild hung tough with the league-leading Red Wings, mostly because of goalie Dwayne Roloson, who was almost as impressive as Hasek.

Roloson's best stop of the night came late in the second period after Brendan Shanahan led a 3-on-1 break right at him. Shanahan, who scored the winning goal against Montreal on Monday night, got off a close shot, but Roloson made the save with his stick, bringing the crowd to its feet.

--Colorado 3, St. Louis 1: In Denver, Recently acquired forward Mike Keane helped set up Dan Hinote's go-ahead goal for the Avalanche that put Colorado ahead 2-1 at 17:45 of the second period.

Rookie Radim Vrbata also scored for Colorado, and Greg de Vries had an empty-net goal in the final minute.

Patrick Roy had 33 saves.

Keane, playing in his first game for Colorado after Monday's trade with St. Louis, brought the puck down the left side. After being spun around by a defender, he passed to Adam Foote, whose shot from the right point was redirected in by Hinote.

--Dallas 4, N.Y. Rangers 2: Mike Modano and Joe Nieuwendyk scored third-period goals as the host Stars beat the Rangers.

Modano's wrister from the top of the right circle with 9:34 left broke a 2-2 tie.

Nieuwendyk was credited with his 21st goal of the season when Benoit Brunet's shot ricocheted of his skate and past Mike Richter for some insurance with 3:05 left.
