Calgary - Seattle: NHL match betting tip

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

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.
