Stephen Nover's NHL Total of the Week
(NHL) Chicago vs. Buffalo,
Total: 6.00 | -103.00 Under
Result: Push
Down Connor Bedard, Tyler Johnson, Nick Foligno and Andreas Athanasiou, the Blackhawks have the weakest offense in the NHL right now. Chicago has scored four goals in regulation during its last four games. The Blackhawks have scored 2 or fewer goals in eight of their past nine games.

The Blackhawks are terrible on the road and they are going against a hot goalie. Buffalo's Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen has a 1.40 goals against average in his last three starts. If you discount a 5-2 loss to Seattle, Buffalo has given up only six goals in its past five games.

Chicago has allowed an average of just two goals a game during its past four contests.
