Command Analysis
Chicago Blackhawks
Chicago is gradually finding its game at home, where it has managed to win two in a row. First, the Black Hawks defeated Pittsburgh (5:3), and then defeated Winnipeg (4:3 OT). The main news for the Blackhawks is the return of Connor Bedard. The captain missed the start of the season due to injury, but returned to the squad and immediately scored an assist. In the match against Winnipeg, he scored his first goal of the season.
Despite recent successes, Chicago still has chronic defensive problems, conceding an average of exactly 4.00 goals per match, while the attack scores 2.63 goals. Young Anton Frondell remains the top scorer with 6 points (1+5).
Dallas Stars
Dallas is showing balanced but extremely cautious hockey at the start of the season. In the last three matches, the stars lost to Pittsburgh (1:2 SO) and Colorado (2:3), but then they took revenge on the Avalanche in shootouts (3:2 SO).
Let's add that the Texas team demonstrates the best defense in the division, conceding an average of only 1.71 goals per game, although it is also not impressive in attack, scoring 2.14 goals. The attacking leader is Mikko Rantanen, who scored 7 points (2+5), and Miro Heiskanen scored three goals.
Chicago performs well at home against this opponent. For example, the Blackhawks have won 3 of their last 4 face-to-face home games against Dallas. An additional powerful boost for the team will be the return to the ice of Connor Bedard, who significantly strengthened the team in the previous match. Against the background of an emotional upswing and a good home series, Chicago has a great chance to win another victory.
Our betting tip is that Chicago will win the match by a factor of 2.44
