NHL Stanley Cup Final - Blackhawks v Lightning spread, betting preview.
After the Hawks beat off the Ducks and Tampa Bay finishing the Rangers season these two teams come into this one after 7 game long conference finals. How will they match up in the post season? Playing different hockey, Chicago will have an edge in experience and Tampa Bay will have the speed. My issue with the Lightning is their defense. Ben Bishop let in 7 goals in game 6 and it's only going to get worse against a team that is no stranger to post season pressure..

5/30/2015 Game 7 Chicago Blackhawks at Anaheim Ducks Picks, Predictions, Preview
Game 7 - Chicago Blackhawks at Anaheim Ducks Picks and Prediction
Just like Tampa Bay and New York this series has gone back and forth without anyone really showing a clear edge. Both teams have scored 14 goals in the series each, both teams have won all their games straight after they lose. Following that pattern would suggest that the number 1 seeded Anaheim Ducks win tonight. But, I think neither of these teams are prepared to give an inch and this one could go either way. For that reason, I'd recommend getting behind the Blackhawks in this one just like it would've worked with Tampa last night. In a 50/50 game, take the team that pays more..

5/26/15 Game 6 Anaheim Ducks at Chicago Blackhawks prediction, preview and pick
The Chicago Blackhawks will host Anaheim in a must win game 6. Down 3-2 in the series Chicago find themselves in a back against the wall position and potential end to their post season. The Rangers showed us why they are a real contender for the Stanley Cup last night beating Tampa well on their own ice, but I'm not sure the Hawks can get the same job done. We've seen this series become one of the most competitive of all post season match ups and neither team has seemed to have the advantage for long. However, despite the 2 goals in the last 2 minutes that pushed game 5 into overtime, the Hawks look tired. At nice looking odds, I think the Ducks come out firing in this one and jump into the Stanley Cup final with a spring in their step...
PICK: Anaheim Ducks WIN @ 2.32 (+132)

5/21/15 Best Of the Day Triple - NHL Anaheim Ducks at Chicago Blackhawks Picks, Predictions, Analysis
NHL Playoffs Prediction Anaheim Ducks at Chicago Bulls prediction
With the series tied 1-1 Anaheim are left with the task of stealing back an away win. The Ducks looked dominant in game 1 but struggled to get the job done in game 2 where they went 0/5 in their powerplay efforts. The Blackhawks are a monster at home and have been all season long but i'm still not convinced that they're a better team than the Ducks. For that reason I can't pick a winner in this game, but I see value in the game total. The Chicago defense is solid on the power play and the Ducks struggled to score at home. Additionally, Chicago scored twice in the first 7 minutes of the 1st period yet the total still didn't manage to go over the line. Going against the bookies and predicting another defensive battle in game 2 of this series..
PICK: Blackhawks/Ducks UNDER 5 @ 2.25 (+125)

5/19/15 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs - Chicago Blackhawks @ Anaheim Ducks Prediction, odds, picks
Game 2 Chicago Blackhawks at Anaheim Ducks analysis and prediction.
Tampa Bay bounced back to win away from home against the Rangers last night, but I'm not entirely sure the Blackhawks can do the same. No doubt you can expect the Hawks to come out firing to try and get the early lead and defend it, but the ducks have just been too good in all areas so far. Game 1 the Hawks fired a lot of shots, but not a lot of good ones. Anaheim contrasted that perfectly by scoring 4 of their 27 shots on goal. They are the top seed for a reason, their defense has contained the best of them, offensively they've scored more goals than any other team in the playoffs at 3.9 a game and to wrap it all up they have yet to lose any of their 6 home ice games this post season. All of the stats and numbers lean towards another Ducks win here..
PICK: Anaheim Ducks @ 1.83
