Chicago Blackhawks vs Ottawa Senators Prediction: Will the Senators extend their winning streak?

Prediction for the NHL Chicago Blackhawks vs Ottawa Senators match, which will take place on March 7. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Chicago has finally given up. The Blackhawks are finishing the regular season without any tournament motivation, as they are in the last positions in the West and Central divisions. They have 47 points. Against the background of the departure of the leaders, the losses began as well. Chicago now has a four-game losing streak. Moreover, in all of them, they lost in the regulation time, i.e., they did not score a single point. In the past, the team lost to Nashville with a score of 1:3.

Ottawa, unlike Chicago, pulled itself together. The Senators began to show excellent hockey lately and achieved positive results. Now they are on a streak of five wins in a row - all based on the results of three periods. After beating the tough Rangers (5:3), the team also beat Columbus (5:2). Not surprisingly, Ottawa immediately jumped into a playoff race - ahead of the game, they're in tenth place in the East standings with 68 points and fifth place in the Atlantic Division standings.

Bookmakers experts consider the favorite of the upcoming matchup to be Ottawa for a reason. The Senators look significantly better than the Blackhawks with a five-game winning streak and a strong playoff push. While Chicago has lost the previous four games, they have no tournament motivation. In our opinion, the logical bet here is to bet on the victory of the visitors, who are currently showing excellent results.
