Our featured game of NHL predictions has the Flames taking on the Blackhawks at the United Center. Dustin Wolf is the likely starter for Calgary, which has a 3-5-2 mark in its last 10 games. It’s been a nightmarish start to the campaign for the Flames, who have the least amount of points so far this season. Nazem Kadri leads the way in points with 11, but Blake Coleman has the most goals on the club with seven.

Spencer Knight is the expected starter for the Blackhawks, who are starting to put things together. Chicago is 5-3-2 in the last 10 games and in fourth place in the Central Division entering this game. Connor Bedard leads in offensive categories on the team, such as goals (10), assists (16), and points (26).

The Blackhawks seem to be turning a corner, while the Flames are trying to find answers. Chicago should get the victory.

Prediction: Blackhawks win 5-2.
