Chicago Blackhawks Vs St. Louis Blue Live Streaming, Predictions, And More

The Chicago Blackhawks face off against the St. Louis Blues tonight in Chicago in what is the best rivalry in the Central Division.

The St. Louis Blues were one of the hottest teams in the NHL for a while after they decided to fire their long time coach Mike Hitchcock and promote the head coach in waiting Mike Yeo. They have lost their last two games after their hot streak, but they are still 7-3 in their last 10. They are still only holding down the last wild card spot with only a 3 point cushion between them and the LA Kings.

The Chicago Blackhawks are 8-2 in their last 10 and have won 8 out of 9 with only the first game back from their bye week as their only loss during that time frame.

The offense has been a pleasant surprise during the Blackhawks hot streak with them scoring 5 goals or more in the 5 out of the last 6 contests with a couple of hat tricks from Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane in consecutive games.

The one thing that the goal scoring has done is cover up Corey Crawford‘s game. Crawford hasn’t been terrible, but he hasn’t been in playoff mode either so if the Hawks were back to scoring a lot less goals and losing games I feel like there would be a lot more fans complaining about Crow’s game right now.

More from Blackhawk Up

The St. Louis Blues struggles have been directly related to their goalie play in Jake Allen. Allen normally has a save percentage around .920 but now sits around .903 and he’s giving up 2.67 goals a game this year compared to a career average of 2.33. If the Chicago Blackhawks can jump on Allen early this game could be another easy one for the Blackhawks.
