The Seattle Kraken continue on the road and will visit the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday night. These teams met twice last season and each team took the win at home but the Blackhawks destroyed them 6-1 in Chicago.

The Kraken were 17-22-10 in conference games. Seattle has converted on 21.8% of power-play opportunities, scoring 47 power-play goals.

Rasmus Dahlin led the Kraken with 40 total assists and has 53 points. Tage Thompson has six goals and seven assists over the last 10 games for Seattle.

In their last 10 games the Kraken are 7-3, averaging 3.6 goals, 5.8 assists, 3.1 penalties and seven penalty minutes while giving up 3.3 goals per game with an .889 save percentage.

Chicago Blackhawks

The Blackhawks have lost 3 of their last 5 games and are 13-27 at home with a 27-42-11 record overall ranking 8th in the Atlantic division. Chicago scores 2.6 goals per game, the least in the Western Conference. Alex DeBrincat leads the team with 40 total goals. Christian Dvorak has five assists over the last 10 games for Chicago.

BETTING TRENDS

Seattle are 3-9 SU in their last 12 games.

Seattle are 2-6 SU in their last 8 games on the road.

Seattle are 3-8 SU in their last 11 games against an opponent in the Western Conference conference.

The total has gone OVER in 10 of Chicago's last 15 games.

Chicago are 6-14 SU in their last 20 games.

The total has gone OVER in 6 of Chicago's last 7 games at home.

 

Prediction

The Kraken were one of the worst teams in the league last season and I don't have much expections from them for this year. The Blackhawks weren't that great either last season but this time they're looking different so I expect them to be confident at home for this game and beat the Kraken. Take Chicago.
