Alex Stalock is Chicago's best goaltender, which isn't saying much, but he's in there tonight. Stalock holds a 7-1-1 record, .930 save percentage and 2.09 goals-against average in nine career games against the Senators. During a four-game losing streak, the Hawks have totaled just six goals. Ottawa's Cam Talbot has allowed two or fewer goals in three of his past four. I'm thinking 4-2 Ottawa ...

Chicago may not feel like a winning proposition with Patrick Kane now skating for New York, but my model has the Blackhawks covering in a stunning 72% of simulations. A projected final score of 2.9-.26 in Ottawa's favor certainly gets us there -- and also gets us to Under 6.5 goals, if you feel like double-dipping on this game.
