PHILADELPHIA -- The NHL trade deadline came and went Monday afternoon and the Philadelphia Flyers stayed intact.

Later that night, center Brayden Schenn and company made that decision look wise by blasting the Calgary Flames 5-3 at Wells Fargo Center.

Hats came raining down in droves as Schenn scored his first career hat trick and the Flyers (29-22-11) pulled off their third win in as many games over a critical six-game homestand.

"Just trying to be as confident as possible," Schenn said. "I know I can make plays and produce with those guys and right now I'm just trying to do that."

Schenn became the first Philadelphia player to record a hat trick on home ice since left winger Scott Hartnell did so Jan. 22, 2012.

Center Claude Giroux added four assists and right winger Wayne Simmonds scored two goals for the Flyers, who remain three points out of the Eastern Conference's second wild-card spot.

Simmonds' second tally was an empty-netter to ice the game in the final minute.

"Me, (Giroux) and (Simmonds) have some pretty good chemistry," Schenn said. "It's nice to score a hat trick on top of a team win."

The Flames (26-32-4), trailing 4-1 at second intermission, charged hard in the third with goals from left winger Micheal Ferland and right winger Michael Frolik, but it wasn't enough for the NHL's second-worst road team at nine wins.

"They executed well on a couple of plays, we had some breakdowns and they made us pay," Flames coach Bob Hartley said.

Calgary has lost five in a row and eight of its last nine, stumbling out of the playoff picture.

"It's tough, even personally for myself, you find yourself frustrated at times," defenseman Mark Giordano said. "I've got to do a better job with that, we've got to stay upbeat and don't take this for granted -- coming to the rink every day and playing."

Flyers goaltender Michal Neuvirth made his fourth straight start and stopped 29 shots.

Flames goalie Jonas Hiller, who had given up four or more goals in four of his last five outings, made 25 saves.

A hooking penalty charged to Flyers left winger Michael Raffl put the Flames on an early man advantage, and Calgary capitalized 6:07 into the game thanks to its top guns.

The Flames went circle to circle as left winger Johnny Gaudreau, who entered sixth in the NHL with 62 points, set up center Sean Monahan for a clear snap shot and his 20th goal. Monahan reached the 20-goal plateau for the third consecutive season.

Gaudreau's assist extended his career-high point streak to eight games.

Then came the Flyers' onrush.

"Whenever you give up three goals in a period, you're going to make it tough," Hartley said.

Philadelphia countered at 12:25 of the opening stanza when Schenn netted his first and showed why it is a game of inches. Giroux backhanded a shot on net, and Schenn took the loose puck and clanged it home off Hiller's leg pad and then the left goal post to draw the Flyers even.

The 1-1 tie at first intermission was short-lived as Philadelphia broke loose in the second period.

Giroux continued to create, skating along the goal line and finding streaking right winger Wayne Simmonds for a power-play goal and a 2-1 Philadelphia lead at 4:47.

"(Giroux) was on, right from the start of the game," Flyers coach Dave Hakstol said. "Not just with his play with the puck, he was good tonight -- sharp in every area of the game."

Schenn then opened the floodgates with his second and third goals of the game in the latter moments of the middle period. At 15:27, defenseman Andrew MacDonald laced a pass from the point right to Schenn, who simply tipped it into the back of the net.

Schenn finished off his hat trick with a wrist shot in front three minutes later for another power-play goal, eliciting a barrage of headwear thrown onto the ice.

"One of the things he does best is score goals," Hakstol said. "And he did that tonight."
