The Chicago Blackhawks are going through a bit of a rough patch in their season, after starting with four wins in their first six games, the team has lost five of their last six games, and its only win came in overtime against the Kings, who they faced last year on November 3.
The main problem the Blackhawks have had in their last few games is that their offense is not working, they have scored just three goals in their last three games, and their opponents outscored them by more than ten shots in two of them.
This is especially troubling considering that Chicago is the seventh team that allows the most shots on goal per game, and their penalty kill percentage of 71.4% is the sixth worst in the entire league. To make matters worse, their starting goalkeeper is expected to be Petr Mzarek, who has a save percentage of just .873, so facing a lot of shots could be a problem.
Goalie: Petr Mrazek (1-1-0, 3.75 goals allowed average, .873 save percentage).
Betting on the Los Angeles Kings
- Season record: 8-6-1
- Unibet Spread: [Por definir]
- Unibet Moneyline: [Por definir]
- Over/Under: To be defined [Por definir]
The Los Angeles Kings made sure their last loss to the Chicago Blackhawks was their last, as they have not lost since, winning back-to-back against the Florida Panthers (5-4) and Minnesota Wild (1-0).
That last game may have been won by a narrow difference of goals, but the Kings achieved a total of 30 shots on goal and they put opposing goaltender Marc-André Fleury to the test. That amount of shots has been fairly common for Los Angeles, whose 33.2 shots on goal average is the ninth highest in the NHL, while its 54.2% faceoff win percentage is the fifth-best record in the league.
The win against Minnesota also saw Jonathan Quick record shutout #57 in his career, which places him just below Fleury in that category in terms of active goalkeepers in the league. He will be looking for to give a similar performance tonight to help the Kings continue to score points.
Goalkeeper: Jonathan Quick (5-4-1, 3.02 goals allowed average, .897% save percentage).
JefeBet Prediction
The previous meeting between the two teams was heavily tilted in favor of the Kings, who outshot the Blackhawks in faceoffs (32 to 21) and shots on goal (33 to 19), and although the win was a narrow one at the time, if Mzarek’s presence as Chicago’s goaltender is confirmed, the visitor may not be as fortunate this time around.
It is important to point out that Los Angeles, after losing its first two home games, was the first team to lose in the first half of the season, it has won four of the last five at Crypto.com Arena. The Blackhawks have lost four of their five away games this campaign, and the last two have seen them allow exactly four goals (4-3 in overtime against Sabres and 4-0 against Jets).
Prediction: Los Angeles Kings Moneyline (CHI 2 – LAK 4)
