LiontipsSeattle vs Calgary. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (December 31, 2021).
Command Analysis
Seattle keep showing mediocre performance at home. First, they suffered a defeat to Edmonton with a score of 3:5. The defensive line of Seattle allowed the opponents to create too many scoring chances. After that, the Kraken faced Philadelphia and were close to getting a win, but the Flyers leveled the score and snatched a victory in overtime.
Following these unsuccessful results, Seattle sit second-to-last in the Western Conference table.
Calgary are currently in a downturn. They suffered four defeats in a row, most of them in regulation time. The Flames only managed to put up a fight against Carolina, but the Canes prevailed in overtime (2;3 OT).
The Flames have serious problems with the line-up as 14 of their players have been ruled out due to COVID protocol. We do not expect a powerful performance from the visitors.
Trends

Tip and bets
Calgary will be playing without their main stars, and that gives Seattle a good chance to end their losing streak. The Kraken have already put up a fight against the Flames earlier this season, so we expect the hosts to get at least one point here.

Both sides concede a lot of late, so we suggest betting on the total over in this fixture.
Second bet - total over 5.5 goals
