Game Totals Pick
Under 6.5(-120)

The Buffalo Sabres are set to play their final road game of the season in Chicago against the Blackhawks. With first place still up for grabs in the Atlantic Division, the Sabres will want to build on their strong performances. They have won 4 consecutive games and show no signs of slowing down.

On the other hand, the Blackhawks have secured the 31st spot in the league, meaning they don’t have much to play for. However, many players are looking to impress management for next season. Goaltending has been an issue all season for Chicago, but we may see some improvements in this matchup. The Blackhawks are averaging just 2.55 goals per game, so if they score, it is likely to be just 1 or 2 goals. The Sabres could dominate this game as they did in their first meeting, but given what is at stake, they may want to focus on their defense. We lean slightly towards betting the under, hoping an empty net goal doesn’t spoil the outcome.

Sabres vs Blackhawks prediction: Under 6.5 (-120) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number or better.
