Chicago Blackhawks vs Utah Mammoth Betting Picks

Utah scores 3.21 goals per game and Chicago allows 3.25. The Blackhawks have surrendered 15 goals in four games. They are going for the season sweep against the Mammoth after beating them again 3-2 in overtime on Monday. Chicago's offense is in good shape, and Utah has been playing without Mikhail Sergachev (lower body) over the past four games, though he could return as soon as tonight. Spencer Knight is probable for the Blackhawks, and he has lost his past four starts. Knight is 6-9-4 in road games this season. Karel Vejmelka has a 2.69 goals-against average in 2025-26, but he has allowed 15 goals in four games on 114 shots, including a 5-0 loss to Minnesota on Tuesday. Vejmelka allowed four goals on 28 shots against Chicago on March 1. Take the OVER. 

Utah sailed OVER while winning its third straight 5-4 in overtime over Columbus after blowing a 4-2 third-period lead. Chicago went OVER while losing 4-3 in OT to Dallas on Sunday. The Mammoth have gone OVER four of six Monday games, and six of the past nine meetings have soared OVER. Utah has gone OVER four of its past five against teams with losing records. The Mammoth score 3.19 goals per game, and Chicago allows 3.18 this season. Vitek Vanecek is slated to start for Utah, and he is 4-9-2 with a 2.73 goals-against average and an .890 save percentage. Drew Commesso is expected to make his third start of the season for the Blackhawks after allowing five goals against Washington and then shutting out Nashville. Take the OVER.

Chicago has lost three in a row (all on the road), scoring a total of 3 goals. The offense is 26th in goals scored (2.61 per game), 21st on the power play, and last in shots on goal. The Blackhawks are on an 18-11-1 run UNDER the total. Utah's offense is 28th on the power play, while the defense is fifth in the NHL in goals allowed (2.76 per game) and in shots on goal allowed. Take Chicago/Utah UNDER the total. 

The Blackhawks are due. They have played three games and lost by one goal in each game to the Canadians when Montreal scored with 15 seconds left, to the Bruins in overtime on the road, and to the Stanley Cup champion Panthers on the road. Those three teams have a combined record of 8-1. Now, Chicago gets 1-1 Utah at home. The Mammoth are averaging fewer than two goals per game in regulation. The Blackhawks are attempting to increase their physicality this season. They had 10 penalties called against them in their loss to Montreal this past Saturday. The Blackhawks managed to kill off eight of the penalties while gaining the experience of combining toughness with smart hockey. The Mammoth could be missing one of their better defensemen as Sean Durzi suffered a shoulder injury in Utah's 3-2 overtime road win against Nashville this past Saturday. Take the Blackhawks.

The Utah Hockey Club has won two of three meetings this season, but it is looking to avenge a 4-3 overtime loss to the Blackhawks on March 7. It has a great opportunity to stop a three-game slide as Chicago has lost nine of 10 overall and eight straight against Western Conference teams. The Blackhawks will finish last in the Central Division and they have won only 14 of 37 home games. Chicago has allowed 4.63 goals per game its past eight games, including a 5-3 loss to Vegas on Friday. Utah goalie Karel Vejmelka is 21-20-7 with a 2.60 goals-against average and a .903 save percentage and he is the expected starter today. Spencer Knight has lost six of his past seven starts for Chicago, which has lost four of its past five home games. Take the Utah Hockey Club.
