Blackhawks vs. Golden Knights Predictions
The Vegas Golden Knights have been nothing short of impressive this season, boasting a perfect 7-0 record. Their defense, which allows only 1.86 goals per game, ranks second in the league, making them a formidable opponent for any team. Offensively, they have been led by center Jack Eichel, who tops the team with 3 goals and 5 assists. The Golden Knights’ recent 3-2 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers further underscored their dominance, and they will be looking to replicate this performance against the Blackhawks.
On the other hand, the Chicago Blackhawks have had a rough start to the season, with a 2-5 record. Their offense, which is scoring just 2 goals per game, ranks 30th in the league. Despite this, they have seen some bright spots, particularly in center Tyler Johnson and right wing Corey Perry, who lead the team with 3 goals and 3 assists respectively. However, the Blackhawks’ recent 3-0 loss to the Boston Bruins highlighted their struggles, and they will need to significantly step up their game to stand a chance against the Golden Knights.
The game could ultimately come down to the performance of the goaltenders. The Golden Knights’ Adin Hill, who made 21 saves out of 24 shots in their most recent game, will be a key player to watch. On the Blackhawks’ side, Arvid Soderblom, who made 19 saves out of 24 shots in their last game, will need to be at his best to keep his team in the game. With the Golden Knights’ strong defense and the Blackhawks’ struggling offense, this game could be a tough uphill battle for the Blackhawks.
Blackhawks vs. Golden Knights Pick
Given the recent trends and statistics, the under seems to be the most likely outcome for this game. The Vegas Golden Knights have been exceptional defensively this season, allowing just 1.86 goals per game, the second-lowest in the league. This strong defense, combined with the Blackhawks’ struggling offense, which is scoring just 2 goals per game, suggests a low-scoring game is on the cards. Furthermore, the under has hit three times in the last four head-to-head encounters between these two teams, further supporting this prediction.
While the Blackhawks have some offensive threats in Tyler Johnson and Corey Perry, they will be up against a formidable Golden Knights defense and the impressive goaltending of Adin Hill. On the other side, the Blackhawks’ goalie, Arvid Soderblom, will need to step up his game to keep the Golden Knights’ offense at bay. Despite the Golden Knights’ perfect record, their games have predominantly been low-scoring, with the under hitting in five of their seven games this season. Therefore, based on these factors, the under seems to be the most likely outcome for this game.
The Pick: Under 5.5 +110 (PointsBet)
