San Jose Sharks vs. Chicago Blackhawks Betting Preview
On the season, the Sharks have the worst goal differential in all of the National Hockey League. The Sharks have scored just 88 goals, while allowing 180. The Sharks are 4-19-1 on the road this season as well.
Tomas Hertl is the top scorer for the Sharks this season. He has scored 13 goals and dished out 17 assists. Next for the Sharks is Mikael Granlund, with 24 assists and 5 goals. William Edklund is third, with 7 goals and 11 assists.
The San Jose Sharks are playing their final game of the five-game road trip. The Sharks will go home and host the Ducks on Saturday. The Sharks then are at Los Angeles on Monday, before the Rangers, Sabres, and Kraken all come to town. The San Jose Sharks standings spot is an ugly one, but this is a squad that is going to look for positives as we head toward the second half of the season.
The Chicago Blackhawks are without their top pick in the draft Connor Bedard. The 18-year-old has not played since the loss in New Jersey on January 5th. It is expected he will miss up to six weeks of the season. Before his injury, the rookie had 15 goals and 18 assists through 39 games played.
Phillip Kurashev is the second-leading scorer for this Chicago bunch. He has 8 games and 15 assists on the season. Jason Dickinson is next, with 14 goals and 7 assists on the season. Chicago is 31st in the National Hockey League, scoring 2.26 goals per game, while allowing more than 3.6 per game.
Chicago will head out to Buffalo after this game, and take on the Sabres on Wednesday. A trip back home against the Islanders is on the schedule for Friday, before the Blackhawks head out West for four games; at Vancouver, Seattle, Edmonton and Calgary. When going to a Chicago Blackhawks game, you want to see Connor Bedard. Without him, this is a much different team.
San Jose Sharks vs. Chicago Blackhawks Betting Picks
There really is not a great answer for these two NHL teams. They are both very poor, and both seem to be a long way from rebuilding into winning franchises again. At least Chicago has some hope with the top NHL draft pick. The Blackhawks are at home in this game, and the Sharks have been on the road, and playing back-to-back.
That does not seem like a good spot for the Sharks to be in. When we go to make our betting picks for this game, we are most certainly going to keep that in mind. Therefore our final betting pick for this game on Tuesday is the Chicago Blackhawks. When looking at the final Sharks vs Blackhawks odds – take the Blackhawks at -130 over the Sharks. We hope you enjoyed our all NHL expert picks!
- Pick: Blackhawks -130.
