Leg 2: Under 5.5 Total Goals Scored (+108)

The Blackhawks have only scored 145 goals this season, while the Kings are still under 200 at 198.
Each of the last four meetings between the Kings and Blackhawks has seen five or fewer total goals scored.
Neither of these teams has the scoring depth to make this a back-and-forth, high-scoring affair.
Although the total is set relatively low at 5.5, there’s some real value present in backing the under 5.5 at +108.

Leg 3: Kevin Fiala to Record 3+ Shots on Goal (-210)

The Kings have some valuable offensive weapons, but consistency has been a big issue for this group all season.
Kevin Fiala is someone the team relies upon heavily to produce offense.
Fiala has recorded 57 points in 65 games this season.
Fiala has recorded three or more shots on goal in three of his last four games.
Against a Chicago team that routinely gets outshot, backing Fiala to record at least three shots on goal is a great way to close out this parlay at -210.
