The Chicago Blackhawks’ odds at making the playoffs have dropped considerably through the past couple of weeks. It seems like today’s game could be the difference-maker.
The Hawks play the Nashville Predators in Nashville today. Going into the contest Chicago and Nashville are tied in points yet again the only difference is Nashville is 8-2-0 in their last ten games while Chicago is 3-7-0. I think I would rather be the Predators than Chicago right now.
If the Hawks lose today, they go into two games against the Dallas Stars really needing points desperately.
