Command Analysis

Seattle Kraken

Current form
Seattle has completed a three-match away series, which it did not start in the best way. In the first match, the team faced an opponent of its own level, in the person of Nashville, and was unable to play reliably defensively. The Kraken allowed the Predators not only to create a huge number of dangerous moments in their zone, but also to realize them, which eventually led to a defeat with a score of 3:5. Goalkeeper Dakkor failed his main task, reflecting only 87% of shots. Nevertheless, Bylsma's players were able to quickly rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans and played much more reliably in the next match, which allowed them to defeat Philadelphia (4:1).
As expected, it wasn't enough for Seattle to consolidate its success. I had to fight with the current leader of the Eastern Conference, represented by Washington. Once again, Dakkor did not perform well, which is why they had to concede with a score of 2:4. It is worth noting that at the moment the team occupies only the 13th place in the Western Conference table, and the gap from the playoff zone is only growing and already amounts to 12 points, which is by standards The NHL is critical.

Montreal Canadiens

Current form
Montreal continues its string of away matches, where it shows a good game, although it does not always bring the desired result. The series began away from Edmonton, where the Canadians tried to play on opposite courses and even managed to impose a worthy fight on the clear favorite, but still suffered an insulting defeat in overtime (2:3). Next, the team met with Calgary and this time it also looked no worse than its competitor, but serious problems arose with the implementation of moments in the attack. None of the 26 shots reached the target, which led to a setback (0:1).
Nevertheless, the Canadiens were able to rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans at a visit to Vancouver. The team successfully exploited the opponent's defensive mistakes, which allowed it to earn a significant three-goal advantage by the middle of the second period. Thanks to the efforts of goalkeeper Montembo, they managed to win a landslide victory over the Canucks with a score of 4:2. It is impossible not to mention the striker Slafkovsky, who scored the puck and gave two assists. Thanks to its results, the club was able to get seriously closer to the playoff zone, and at the moment the gap from the eighth position is only two points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Dakh, Gule and Price will definitely not be able to participate in the upcoming match. Also, Laine remains in question.

2.25Tip and bets
Seattle is the clear favorite in the upcoming match, but we disagree with this a little bit. Montreal has recently gained good form, which allows it to consistently fight back against very serious opponents, as well as beat opponents of its own level. Kraken can rarely boast of such successes, even when performing on the home arena. We believe that the Canadians, at least, will not lose in the main time, which is what we suggest betting on.
Our betting tip is that Montreal will not lose in 1.80
Bet on the total
One of Seattle's main problems remains its terrible defensive game, which often allows opponents to take full advantage. The Kraken try to compensate for this disadvantage through their own actions in attack, which makes the matches effective.
Betting Tip - total more than 5.5 goals in 1.83
Betting on the outcome of the first period
Seattle's first period was far from the most successful. Even in the home arena, the team rarely earns an advantage at the end of the opening segment, which means that Montreal can create serious problems for the Kraken from the start.
Betting Tip - Montreal will not lose in the first period for 1.50
