Recent Form
St. Louis Blues
St. Louis is coming off a 3-1 road win at Minnesota (March 1), but the broader picture remains shaky with a 3-6-1 last-10 and a brutal 8-17-3 road record.
Over their last five games: 3-2 record with 18 goals scored and 16 allowed, including a 5-1 win vs Seattle on Feb. 26 and a 3-1 loss vs New Jersey on Feb. 28. Travel-wise, this is their second road game in four days (at MIN on March 1, then at SEA on March 4), with two full off-days in between.
Injury-wise, St. Louis lists multiple forward absences and day-to-day situations, including Robert Thomas (Out) and Mathieu Joseph (Out), plus day-to-day listings for Jordan Kyrou, Jake Neighbours, Dylan Holloway, and Oskar Sundqvist.
Seattle Kraken
Seattle has been the steadier side recently at 7-3-0 in the last 10, backed by a strong 16-9-5 home record and a defensive profile that outpaces St. Louis on goals allowed (2.87 vs 3.42).
Over their last five games: 3-2 record with 13 goals scored and 13 allowed, highlighted by a 2-1 home win vs Carolina on March 2 and a 5-1 road win at St. Louis on Feb. 26 (followed by a 5-1 home win vs Vancouver on Feb. 28). This is a favorable spot: Seattle stays home and last played Monday (March 2).
Seattle’s injury list is lengthy, with notable outs including Jared McCann (Out), Chandler Stephenson (Out), and Brandon Montour (Out), plus several day-to-day tags (including Jordan Eberle and Jaden Schwartz).
Matchup Keys
- Home-ice edge is real here: Seattle is 16-9-5 at home, while St. Louis is 8-17-3 on the road.
- Defensive gap: Kraken allow 2.87 goals per game; Blues allow 3.42. That difference matters at a 5.5 total.
- Special teams are a risk on both sides: Seattle PP 22.0% vs St. Louis PK 73.2%; St. Louis PP 17.4% vs Seattle PK 72.0%.
- Low shot volume, different shot prevention: both are around 25 shots for per game, but Seattle concedes 29.42 shots against per game (high), giving St. Louis chances to hang around if finishing shows up.
- Series and familiarity: the season series is 1-1 (Seattle won 4-3 OT on Nov. 8; St. Louis won 5-1 on Feb. 26), and St. Louis has historically had success vs Seattle since 2021-22 (9-2-2).

- Kraken last 10: 7-3-0.

- Kraken puck line (ATS) this season: 41-19.
- Kraken O/U record this season: 26-34 (lean Under overall).
- Blues O/U record this season: 31-29.
- Blues have struggled to keep games tight defensively over the season (3.42 goals allowed per game).
Best Bet
Seattle Kraken moneyline (-144).
Seattle’s edge shows up in the two inputs that tend to stabilize most: home-ice results (16-9-5) and goals allowed (2.87 per game). St. Louis has been a weak road team (8-17-3), and that’s a tough profile to trust as a plus-money visitor in a late West Coast start. Goalie confirmation matters, but even with unconfirmed starters, Seattle’s defensive baseline plus location is enough for me to side with the favorite at this price.
