Result:
WIN

St. Louis got the win in game one, 1-0 in overtime. However, this is not a team that excels at this time of the year, dealing with three straight first-round playoff exits the previous three seasons. St. Louis focuses on defense first, ranked #15 in goals scored, on a 3-8 run in Conference Quarterfinals games. The team they're playing, Chicago, is the best organization in hockey, winning three Stanley Cups the last six years, including last season. This is a great bounce-back spot for a talented Chicago squad that is sixth in goals scored, second on the power play and #10 in goals allowed. Patrick Kane led the NHL in scoring with 106 points (46 goals, 60 assists) in 82 games, and has plenty of help with LW Artemi Panarin (30 Goals, 47 assists), and forwards Marian Hossa (13 Goals), and Artem Anisimov (20 Goals). Andrew Shaw is healthy and defenseman Duncan Keith is done with a six-game suspension (he missed game one). The Blackhawks are 19-7 when their opponent scores two goals or less in their previous game, so grab the talented dog that excels in big games and take Chicago in game two.
