The NHL playoffs have already been full of surprises, and now we move onto game three where the venues change. The Blackhawks have taken a pair of 3-2 decisions against Calgary to go up 2-0 in the series. That now means Chicago has won four straight games and eight of their last nine, including three straight on the road. The Flames have not finished the season strong, and are now mired in a streak of seven wins in their last 20 games - hardly the look of a playoff team. The problem is a struggling offense that has scored just 20 goals in their last 12 games, or just 1.7 per contest. That just isn't gonna get it done against a hot Blackhawks’ team that is also riding playoff momentum now. Chicago takes this one.
