Kirill The Thrill has been a multi-point mastermind this season, notching 2+ points in 16 of his 36 contests. Given that he’s nearly a coin flip to produce a multi-point outing on any given night, I like his NHL odds of doing just that against a tanking Blackhawks team. Chicago finds itself in the basement of the NHL standings with just one win in its last seven contests while allowing 3.86 goals against per game over that span and 4+ goals in five of those outings. That’s even worse than the club’s season average of 3.44, which ranks third-worst in the league. With Kaprizov getting back up to speed, he’ll have a good shot at boosting his confidence and his point totals against a weak Blackhawks squad.
