The Senators are improved this season. They are a respectable 3-4 and just upset the Stars, 4-1, on the road this past Friday.

The Blackhawks do not look improved. They look worse. Chicago is 0-9 and has plenty of chemistry issues. The Blackhawks have managed only 12 goals in their last seven games.

Patrick Kane is a game-time decision having been in COVID-19 protocol.

Maybe the Blackhawks get their first win and the due factor kicks in. But I'll take a plus price to find that out.
