The Chicago Blackhawks have fallen into last place in the Central Division by losing their last five games and nine of their last 11. The good news is that tonight they'll face an Arizona team they've owned in recent seasons, including a pair of comfortable wins this season. Overall, the Blackhawks are 14-3 in the last 17 meetings and they've claimed 10 of the last 11 in the desert.

The Coyotes are dead last in the NHL with only six home-ice victories and I think this is a great price on the desperate Blackhawks who need to start winning if they're to make the playoffs.

My NHL Game of the Month is a 10* play on Chicago Blackhawks ML.
