Hurricanes vs Blackhawks Key Stats
Carolina have done decent on the scoring front, averaging three goals per game. They have different contributors, along with Martin Necas, who has been brilliant with over 17 goal involvements. However, they still need to improve their conversion rate going forward this season.
The defense has performed its duties well, conceding less than 3 goals per game on average. This has given solid strength and buffers to the offense as well. Antti Raanta has done a nice job with less than 2.5 goals conceded per game on average and is likely to play an important role in this game too.
Chicago have done a poor job on offense since the start of the season. They have scored over two goals per game on average this season. The larger effort came from Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews, who have notched up 22 goal contributions.
On defense, they are not clinical enough and have conceded three goals per game. Their inconsistency has not been kind to them and it has made the goaltenders work harder. They have faced over 34 shots per game on average and even after a save percentage of over 0.900, they have failed to give any strength to the attack.
Hurricanes vs Blackhawks Betting Prediction
Carolina have come out as winners 8 times in their last 9 games against a team with a losing record and are 6-2 in the last 8 meetings in Chicago.
Chicago have done well at home following a road trip of 7 or more days but have struggled against Carolina.
Carolina will likely win this due to better offense and defense.
Prediction: Take Carolina, -1.5(+120)
