Command Analysis

Chicago Blackhawks

Chicago have once again endured a losing streak. The BlackhawKs put up a fight against Dallas, but lost in a shootout (0:1 SO). They also suffered defeats to Columbus (4:7) and Florida (2:5) in regulation. Goalies Fleury and Söderblom both had poor performances and saved under 90% of the shots. We should mention, that Chicago lost all three of these games at home, where they haven't been able to win in the last seven games.

New Jersey Devils

New Jersey delivered solid results in their recent games away. They crushed Montreal (7:1) and St. Louis (7:4), and forwards Hischier and Sharangovich have chalked up four points each in those two games. At home, the Devils suffered two defeats to Pittsburgh (2:4) and Tampa Bay (3:6), but they quickly recovered and beat the Penguins in the reverse fixture (6:1).
