Kings vs Blackhawks Prediction
The Kings should be favored for obvious reasons, as they’re the better team and the Blackhawks have had issues stringing wins together. However, the Kings have not had success on their home ice and their offense has gone quiet lately. The Blackhawks also just beat the Kings as a massive underdog, and they’ve won 3 of the last 5 games against them overall. Given the price point, I’ll take a shot in the dark with the Blackhawks.
