Our pick: Chicago – Colorado: Colorado and more than 4.5 goals in the game

03.04.2025 03:37

After four wins in the last two games, Colorado has lost and is dangerously close to the upstart St. Louis in the Central Division, winning game after game and narrowing the gap to a better playoff position to just five points. So if the Avalanche don’t want to risk losing third place and then having to face probably Winnipeg or Vegas in Round 1, they need to get back on a winning streak.

The game against Chicago is perfect for that purpose. The Blackhawks are second to last in the Western Conference and have lost ten of their last eleven games. Their only win came against struggling Philadelphia.

Chicago got rid of Petr Mrazek before the trade deadline in exchange for Spencer Knight, and it doesn’t appear to have been a good choice. The Knight – Soderblom tandem has been performing very poorly in recent weeks. In five of the last eleven games the Blackhawks have scored at least five goals, in the other three they have scored four goals and only three times they have managed to keep the number of goals scored to three. It’s also due to a weakened defense, which has been abandoned by the likes of Seth Jones.

What to bet on:

Colorado will confirm its position as a superfavorite against Chicago and will get a shot in the game. Combined with the Chicago players contributing, the team will score at least five goals.

Confidence:

7/10
