Canucks at Blackhawks 3/18/19 - NHL Picks & Predictions

The Canucks are playing horrible on road this season as they are 6 games under the five hundred mark on the road. What else is not going to help the Canucks in this game is the fact the defense has really had quite a few struggles on the year and that has cost the Canucks some of the games they should have been able to win on the year.

The Canucks are coming into this game here with Elias Pettersson leading the team in the scoring. Pettersson has been able to score a total of 59 points on the season with a total of 32 assist and 27 goals so far this year. The Blackhawks are battling back and oddly find themselves only 5 points out of the playoff berth in the Wild Card. That has to be a shocker to almost everyone that has been around the Blackhawks team this year as the team was written off early on this year as the Blackhawks had been struggling quite a bit, but the defense for the Blackhawks still is struggling, but doing quite a bit better than what they were doing.

Even with the horrible defense the Blackhawks have seen Patrick Kane playing some great hockey on the year with 99 points total. He has been able to get a total of 58 assist on the season and has managed to get 41 goals on the year.
