Bet of the Day - 10.12.2025

The Chicago Blackhawks return home on Wednesday night to face the Rangers, who have been thriving on the road. New York rides into the United Center on a three-game away winning streak, while Chicago looks to use home ice as a chance to settle themselves and get back on track.

The Chicago Blackhawks hold a 12-11-6 record this season and sit mid-pack in the Central Division. However, their form has dipped. Despite boasting a top-ten power play and penalty kill, their even-strength play continues to drag them down. They've scored 86 goals while conceding 89, leaving them with a narrow −3 goal differential. Chicago are just 2-6-2 across their last 10 and recently endured a disastrous California road trip, capped by 6-0 and 7-1 defeats.

The New York Rangers come into this matchup with a 15-12-4 record, holding a 48% win rate. They've been solid defensively, conceding just 2.61 goals per game while scoring 2.68 on average. Recent form is steadier than Chicago's, going 5-3-2 in their last 10 outings. Despite two narrow overtime losses last weekend, the Rangers remain strong on the road.

The Rangers have won 75% of their recent games against Chicago, and that head-to-head edge feels relevant again here. The Blackhawks have looked sharper at home, but their inconsistency and recent heavy losses raise real concerns. The Rangers have been steadier and far more reliable defensively. We predict the New York Rangers to win at 2.15.
