Chicago Blackhawks Odds

Chicago Blackhawks Odds, Bet Types and Details

The Blackhawks are the seventh seed in the Central Division this season with a 19-27-8 record, which is why it made sense that their 2022 Stanley Cup odds started at +10000 -- one of the lowest chances of winning the Stanley Cup in the NHL.

The Blackhawks were the sixth seed in the Central Division last season with a 24-25-7 record. Chicago hired interim GM Kyle Davidson as their full-time GM on March 1, ushering in a new era of Blackhawks hockey.

Chicago Blackhawks Moneylines

The margin of victory doesn’t matter if you’re only concerned with who wins the game. Moneyline bets are just that: bets on who wins the game, no other questions asked. The Blackhawks are 16-23-7 heading into the All-Star break. Just like with point spreads, the favorite is denoted with the minus sign (-) and the underdog given a plus sign (+).

Here's an example to understand the moneyline better:

• Detroit Red Wings +165
• Chicago Blackhawks -200

The numbers next to those +/- signs are the odds, written in American format. They can be read as math questions where the answer is always $100. When betting the Blackhawks as -200 favorites, it would require risking $200 to win $100. On the flip side, a $100 bet on the underdog Red Wings would return $165.

Chicago Blackhawks Over/Unders

This is a bet on the total, sometimes called an over/under, which is a wager on whether the two teams will combine to score more or less goals than a number set by bookmakers. If the Red Wings-Blackhawks game had an over/under of 5.5 goals, bettors could elect to bet the over or under on that total. A high-scoring game with six goals or more would cash the over. A defensive struggle with five goals or fewer would be a win for the under. If the totals was set on a single number -- like five -- and the two teams scored exactly five, the bet would push, and the initial stake would be refunded to the bettor.

Chicago Blackhawks Props

If you want to keep things simple and just bet on one player to perform, prop bets are for you. Many of these bets are player props, some of which could be a bet on Patrick Kane to go over/under a goal total or points. Others are specific questions on events throughout the game, like which player scores the first goal or which team reaches three goals first.

Futures

Although the Blackhawks aren't highly-favored this season, bettors can place their wagers on futures bets. More specifically, futures are bets that focus on long-term feats that a team or player can achieve; for example, the Chicago Blackhawks to win the Stanley Cup or Patrick Kane to win the NHL MVP.
