Stanley Cup Finals Pick: Blackhawks Lightning Game Six

Stanley Cup Finals Game Six, NHL Picks: Blackhawks Lightning We predicted Blackhawks in six and it’s looking pretty good for us here. The Tampa Bay Lightning are starting to deal with injuries and falling apart. The Chicago Blackhawks have their skate to the jugular of an inexperienced team, they’re on home ice, they’re heating up, and they’re the better team right now.

I’m excited about this one. I didn’t know which Tampa Bay Lightning team would show up here and we had been betting against the Chicago Blackhawks all playoffs with very limited success. It was hard to know which  ... 

Stanley Cup Game Two: Chicago Blackhawks at Tampa Bay Lightning

NHL Stanley Cup Final Game Two: Chicago Blackhawks at Tampa Bay Lightning

Game One was a thriller and we saw the Chicago Blackhawks’ experience come through in a tight game. Can the Tampa Bay Lightning bounce back on home ice or is this series already slipping away?

I still worry about Ben Bishop’s inconsistency and I think the track record of the Chicago Blackhawks and their top NHL defense will be enough for them to win this series. I think they’re the better team overall and having taken back home ice I don’t think the Lightning can recover. The question  ... 

2015 NHL Stanley Cup Final: Chicago Blackhawks over Tampa Bay Lightning

2015 Stanley Cup Predictions: Tampa Bay Lightning vs Chicago Blackhawks

It’s hard to ignore the fact that I’m just getting tired of watching the Chicago Blackhawks win Stanley Cups. I thought that if the Nashville Predators didn’t lose their best player, the Chicago Blackhawks would have fallen in the first round. If the Anaheim Ducks didn’t collapse in the final minutes and blow a two-goal lead, the Chicago Blackhawks would have fallen in the finals. Ultimately, you either except that the Hawks are a team of destiny or you pick the Tampa Bay Lightning to pull off the upset.

I can’t pick the Tampa Bay Lightning to pull off the upset in the 2015 Stanley Cup Final. They’re too inconsistent, they’re too raw. Ben Bishop allows 12 goals in two home games, but closes out the Rangers with two shutouts in a row on the road. They can beat anyone and lose to anyone, and that’s a very dangerous way  ... 

NHL Playoffs Picks: Anaheim Ducks at Chicago Blackhawks Game Four

NHL Playoffs picks: Anaheim Ducks at Chicago Blackhawks This series is really starting to develop into something spectacular. We’ve been riding the Ducks throughout and have a series bet on them, so this game is incredibly important for us. We were with them when they won Game One despite being outplayed, when they lost Game Two in heartbreaking fashion, and we won in Game Three to take back control of the series. The Anaheim Ducks were my pick to make the finals from theWest, and I still think they’re the best team in hockey. The Chicago Blackhawks are winners  ... 

NHL Picks: CHicago Blackhawks at Arizona Coyotes

NHL Picks: Chicago Blackhawks at Arizona Coyotes

Few teams have stumbled down the stretch as hard as the Arizona Coyotes. They continue to lose games, haven’t had consistent goaltending, and have one of the weakest offenses in hockey. It’s hard to imagine a scenario where they topple one of the best teams in hockey – even on home ice, even with some key injuries for the Chicago Blackhawks.

The Blackhawks cannot allow games like this to slip away, and I don’t think they will. This is a team that gets up for every game, and don’t forget the intense playoff  ... 

NBA Picks: New Orleans Pelicans at Atlanta Hawks

NBA Picks: New Orleans Pelicans +6 at Atlanta Hawks

The Pelicans aren’t a very good team on the road and the Hawks have all the momentum in the world, winning five in a row and surging deeper into the playoff picture. Still, the computer and I see some value in the points here.

After hitting our first post of the NCAA Tournament, we dance back to the comforts of the NBA. This is a bold pick too, but I think the Pelicans will give the Hawks a game here. I don’t think the Hawks have an answer for Anthony Davis  ... 

NBA Picks: Atlanta Hawks at Chicago Bulls

NBA Picks: Atlanta Hawks at Chicago Bulls

It’s not the strongest signal of the day, but it’s one I like. The Chicago Bulls are a slight favorite in the computer algorithm, with 1.5 stars of value. Still, with the way the Hawks have been playing, I think the Bulls have quite an edge.

The computer’s marginal support aligns with my thoughts on the game. I think it’s hard to trust the Bulls because of how terrible they can be on offense. This is a team that simply does not score for long stretches of games. That makes betting on them  ... 

NHL Picks: New Jersey Devils at Chicago Blackhawks

NHL Picks and Predictions – New Jersey Devils at Chicago Blackhawks 12/23

The New Jersey Devils might be in trouble here, but call me crazy I believe in this team.  They’ve scratched to .500 and if they can win one more game they can really enjoy the holiday.  The Blackhawks are keeping the door open, too.

Chicago is coming off a loss, so I expect them to be motivated here.  However, they’re going with a backup goalie and, although it’s early, 99% of the public money is on the Blackhawks.  Vegas isn’t in the business of giving money away, so  ... 

NHL Predictions by ZCodeSystem 30 December 2011

Today I am interested to see Capitals finally destroy the Sabres, Florida reply for the humiliation in a tight 2-1 game over Rangers, Ottawa to win 3-4OT over the tired Flames, Detroit to show a win of pride 4-3OT over the Hawks and the Preds to upset the Blues in a tight 3-2 Win.

Lets see how it goes and good luck to all! All games are of low confidence (below 4 stars) so it is more like a fun day for us.

Like many old school cappers are saying – betting around holidays can mess up all the results,  ...
