Command Analysis

Calgary Flames

Current form
Calgary is still outside the playoff zone in the West and is currently in ninth place in the conference. The Alberta team has scored 77 points in 69 games and is already four points behind St. Louis, which has played three more matches. The hosts have not shown stable results throughout the season, but they manage to stay in the fight for the final part of the tournament. The Flames had a great run of away games, beating the Rangers (2-1), New Jersey (5-3) and the Islanders (4-3, OT) at the end.
Canadians make good use of their chances in the second half of March. For six consecutive matches, they have scored at least two goals per game, and in the last two games they have scored eight accurate hits. Jonathan Huberdeau broke away from his pursuers, scoring 55 points (27+28) in the goal+pass system. He is followed by Nazem Kadri (26+26).
Disqualifications and injuries
Justin Kirkland and Anthony Manta will not be able to play against Seattle. Mackenzie Wigar and Joel Farabi have not confirmed their status.
Interesting betting trends
- Calgary throws 28 times per game on average
- Canadians earn 9.33 penalty minutes per match

Seattle Kraken

Current form
Seattle can still compete to reach the finals of the tournament, but for that, the Washington State club needs to start winning steadily right now. The Kraken closes the group of teams that still intend to try to reach the playoffs and are located on the 13th line in the West. The Monsters have scored only 65 points in 71 games and cannot get into the desired shape. After a good stretch, they lost on the road to Minnesota (0:4) and Edmonton (4:5), although before that, Dan Bailsma's team performed quite well in a series of games at home.
Aaron Ekblad's team has been playing terrible defense throughout the regular season. On average, Seattle concedes 3.27 goals per game per game, while on the road this figure rises to 3.57 goals. Joey Duckord regularly appears on the court from the very first minutes, but the American does not help out his partners. He blocked only 90.82% of shots and made only one shutout in 48 matches.
Disqualifications and injuries
All the guest leaders will come to Canada. Chandler Stevenson's condition is still in question.
Interesting betting trends
- Seattle blocks 15 shots per match
- The Kraken makes an average of 27 shots per match.
Trends
Bet 1st period: total more than 1.5 pucks
In three of the last four games against Calgary, more than one goal was scored in the first period.
1.82Bet 2nd period: Calgary will score
Calgary has scored in the second period in the last two games.
1.45Tip and bets
Calgary has gained good form and really wants to regain the eighth place in the West. The Canadians had a very strong finish to the last away series, although they played poorly enough on the road during the regular season. Right now, it is very important for Ryan Husky's team to maintain their former attitude and score important points on their ice. Seattle misses a lot and rarely imposes its game on opponents by playing in white jerseys. We believe that the team from the province of Alberta will deal with the kraken without any problems. We offer a bet on winning first with a handicap of zero.
Our prediction is that Calgary willwinwith an Asian handicap (0) in 1.70
Betting on an individual total
Seattle plays terrible defense and very often concedes in large numbers. On the road, the red light outside the Kraken gate lights up 3.57 times per duel, while the monsters do not have a strong goalkeeper. Calgary has scored quite a lot lately and shouldn't have any big problems defending the visitors. We believe in at least three accurate shots from the hosts.
Betting Tip - Calgary's individual total is over 2.5 goals in 1.65
Bet on the total
Calgary often plays defensively, but the Canadians have to score a lot against the opponent, who simply has to open up and go forward. Seattle often produces extremely effective matches and shows very vivid hockey. We think that neither side will dry up the game and it will turn out to be spectacular. Let's bet on the total more.
Betting Tip - total more than 5.5 goals in 1.90
