In his final game with the Sharks, he stopped 51 of 54 shots in a 3-1 loss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would be shocked if Blackwood has to face 50-plus shots again this season and I personally love this move for the Avalanche. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blackwood ranks 21st out of 82 qualified goalies in Money Puck&#8217;s goals saved above expected (3.9). For context, Georgiev ranks 80th (-9.4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Colorado allows the fourth-most goals per game (3.50) on the fourth-least shots against (26.4). That combo screams poor goaltending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Blackwood between the pipes, I&#8217;m predicting a run for the Avs starting with a win over the Utah Hockey Club on Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Oilers\/Wild under 6 goals (-110)<\/strong>: These two teams are known for their offensive talents. However, I see this being a competitive low-scoring contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Minnesota allows the fewest goals per game (2.39) and Edmonton&#8217;s goaltender Stuart Skinner has been playing exceptionally well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his past five starts, he has a 4-1 record with a 1.41 GAA and .947 SV%. Skinner has conceded two or fewer goals in all five of those outings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Wild have been blessed by the services of Filip Gustavsson to start the year. He owns a 2.08 GAA and .927 SV% across 21 starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both sides will be hungry for a win over another elite Western Conference opponent and I expect strong goaltending to be the key to this leg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 1:38 p.m. on 12\/10\/2024.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NHL schedule shows 13 games tonight which gives options for Thursday&#8217;s parlay.
