The Chicago Blackhawks enter this contest playing good hockey, but they’ve had issues on the road dating back to last season, and they haven’t had much recent success against the Flames. The Calgary Flames have done a good job of stringing wins together, and they have a clear offensive advantage in this one. At home, I’ll lay the PL with the Flames.
