San Jose Sharks vs Chicago Blackhawks Prediction

The San Jose Sharks are looking more and more like the worst team in the league, and they already lost to the Blackhawks this season. The Blackhawks should be favored. The problem is, the Blackhawks aren’t that much of a better team, and backing them in the favorite role isn’t something I’m excited to do. The Sharks are coming off a couple of wins as massive underdogs, and you’d think they can show up at home. The Blackhawks aren’t a team I’m looking at as a favorite. It’s Sharks or pass for me.
