Our Chicago Blackhawks vs San Jose Sharks Prediction
If you are looking for a good, competitive hockey game, don’t expect to find one here. Chicago seems to have checked out mentally a few weeks ago. The Blackhawks have lost nine of their last ten, seven by multiple goals. San Jose has at least put up a fight down the stretch, winning six of their last ten. Chicago has averaged a league low 2.53 goals per game this season, and I don’t see them doing any better in their season finale, even against San Jose’s porous defense.
Our San Jose vs. Colorado Pick: Sharks -1.5
