    Is it time to chase the Blackhawks?

    Straight shooting, I have no freakin idea what to look for when bettint hockey and I am not interested in the sport at all! I was just wonderinf if now - after a 9 game losing streak - would be a good time to start chasing them.

    I know there will be alot of people sayint that chasing is crap (and most of the time they are correct) but I think this right here is a lucrative situational spot...

    Any opinions?

    Blackhawks are due. Tremendous talent in a rut. Goaltending burying them to be honest. They will snap back. Look for value plays, spot betting only with value.

    Ok, let me redefine my standpoint: The chances of the Blackhawks to lose another say 5-7 games is getting slimmer and slimmer with every additional loss...so by value I dont mean value in terms of available line but in terms of high probability of success over the course of a say 5 game chase...

    Call82, I thought the same of the Bruins 10 days ago and it continues. I think it is better to follow teams who are playing good vs looking to rebound. Detroit at home, Nashville at home, Islanders etc...my 2 cents..oh NYR

    I agree with you on this one, Rangers/Wings/Ducks/Pens/Preds are the teams to bet on at the moment in my opinion.

    Watch the Rangers be -300 on thursday and lose to Chicago that would be some funny sh*t! I think Chicago wins both weekend games tho.

    Ok, thanks for the input guys...so I guess momentum and trend are much more important in hockey than in other sports?

    Really hard to believe this streak. Maybe it's worth a chase but I always take each game on individual basis.
