*10* TOTAL SURE SHOT on OVER Hawks/Wings.

The Chicago Blackhawks will be on the road at Detroit tonight, coming off a big win over the NHL leading Washington Capitals. The Wings have won three straight, and they've won four of their last five home meetings with Chicago. My money is on the total, as both these teams have been putting their fair share of pucks in the net lately.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - Chicago has seen at least five goals scored in six of it's last seven overall. The Hawks have gone over in four straight road games, and they are just 3-5 in their last eight overall.

2. Goaltending - Corey Crawford has not been particularly sharp lately, losing five of his last seven starts. His goals against average on the road is pretty swollen (2.89), in comparison with a 1.77 GAA at home.

3. X-Factor - The Hawks are extremely dangerous with the man advantage, with the 2nd best power-play in the league. They scored once on the power-play in the win over Washington Sunday, but allowed the Caps two score twice while short-handed.

Selection: This is a play on Chicago@Detroit to go OVER the total (10*)
