Tyler Bertuzzi Goals Prediction: Under 0.5 vs Wild — March 17 NHL Pick
Tyler Bertuzzi's goals prop is a strong Under play on Tuesday night's Blackhawks-Wild matchup. Chicago's left wing takes on Minnesota's stingy defense on March 17, and our model projects Bertuzzi to fall short of the 0.5-goal line. Here's why we're backing the Under.
Tyler Bertuzzi Stats & Recent Form
Bertuzzi has been a complementary scorer for the Blackhawks this season, averaging 0.32 goals per game over his last five contests. The veteran winger has gone goalless in three of his past four matchups, showing inconsistency in the scoring column. While he remains a steady fixture in Chicago's top-six forward group, his shooting efficiency has dipped noticeably, with only two goals in his last 12 games played.
Matchup Analysis: Chicago Blackhawks vs Minnesota Wild
Minnesota's defense ranks top-10 in goals against per game, and the Wild have been particularly stingy against opposing wing production. The Wild's penalty kill has also been elite, limiting high-danger scoring chances. Chicago comes into this contest as the underdog, and Bertuzzi typically sees reduced ice time in matchups where his team is playing from behind.
