I keep being on the wrong side of the Minnesota Wild games of late, but luckily the Hurricanes came through in overtime for a very modest profit of +0.04 units last night, which brings the season record to (74-77) for +0.58 units. I just like one play tonight, but I like it quite a bit so we should be above a unit profit by tomorrow.
Detroit Red Wings @ Chicago Blackhawks
The Red Wings are 9-10-0 on the road this season, while the Blackhawks, who are the top team in the NHL standings at the moment are 13-3-3 at home. The Blackhawks are coming off a tough loss to the LA Kings where they failed to score a goal so I expect them to be ready to go in this one, especially because the Red Wings are another top team that they will want to test themselves against. The Wings have won 2 games after the Christmas break, but the Blackhawks at home are an entirely different battle and I’m surprised they are such small favourites, especially considering the Wings struggles on the road this season.
