Sharks vs Blackhawks: A matchup between the bottom two teams in the NHL
The San Jose Sharks are visiting the Chicago Blackhawks at the United Center on Tuesday night.
The Sharks are the worst team in the NHL
The San Jose Sharks are at the bottom of the Western Conference with the worst record in the league, 10-31-3. They have won only 4 of 23 road games this season. San Jose has won only one game in the last month and is coming off a 3-0 loss against the Buffalo Sabres. The Sharks are the worst-scoring team in the league, with 2.05 goals scored per game and 4.07 allowed goals per game. Tomas Hertl is the best player on the team, with 29 points.
Can Chicago save the season?
The Chicago Blackhawks are 15th in the Western Conference with a 12-29-2 record. Currently, they are on a three-game losing streak, coming off a 3-1 loss to the Dallas Stars. The Blackhawks are second to last in the NHL, scoring 2.26 goals per game, and are ranked 29th, allowing 3.65 goals per game. Connor Bedard is the best player on the team, with 33 total points.
Betting Trends
These two teams have gone over the total goal line in 6 of their last 7 head-to-head played in Chicago, and 4 of the last 5 overall.
Prediction and Conclusion
This will be a game between the two worst teams in the league, and luckily, some of them will win tonight. The Sharks are so bad that they have lost all but one game in the last 30 days. Looking at the stats, these two teams are at the bottom when it comes to goals scored, but at the same time, they are among the teams that allow the most goals. Knowing that both teams see this game as a unique opportunity to win, this will be high-paced hockey with many shots on goal, and just like it was the case in four of the last five games between these two teams, the final score will go over the total goal line that is set at 6.
