The Iceman's Free Pick
(NHL) Chicago vs. Colorado, 01/17/2017 4:00 PM, Score: 6 - 4
Money Line: -165.00 Chicago (Away)
Result: Win
This is a Free #NHL play on the Chicago #Blackhawks.

Not only are the Colorado Avalanche the worst team in the league, they are actually better on the road than they are at home. They've lost 12 of their last 13 games at the Pepsi Center, and they are just 4-18-1 in their last 23 overall. The Avs are said to be shopping veteran players like Matt Duchene and Gabriel Landeskog. The Chicago Blackhawks are in town tonight, and they are a team that might be looking to add a few more pieces as they look to win a fourth Stanley Cup in seven seasons. Chicago is looking to bounce back after losing their last two games to Washington and Minnesota (two of the league's hottest teams). They had won four straight prior to that, and they are a solid 39-15 in their last 54 versus sub .500 teams. They've won four of their last five at the Pepsi Center, and the road team is 8-3 in the last 11 in this series.

Take CHI.
