Blues look to capitalize on faltering Kraken and cover the puck line if not extending their winning streak to four
The Blues success as of late has flown under the radar as they enter into Friday night with three straight wins and look to grab another on the road against the Kraken. They’ve picked up their game significantly with an 8-5-1 record in their last 14 games that looks a lot better than the Kraken’s 1-4-0 record in their last five games. The Kraken ran into some tough teams like the Rangers, Oilers and Leafs so they still should be a good team but the Blues are surging at the right moment and should give them a proper fight.
It should be one of the closer games on the day and a great matchup to end off the night. If you want to end off your Friday with an exciting West coast game you should absolutely tune in for this one and if you want some added incentive, here is our best bet on the game so you can profit while watching too.

Pick: Blues +1.5 (-185)
Not the greatest odds but great value for a team that is surging right now with their recent performance with their backend just outside of the top 12 for fewest-goals against per game with a 2.86 average that outranks the Stars, Rangers and Avalanche. Their offense hasn’t quite broken through with a 2.79 goals per game average during that span but could catch a break with the Kraken’s backend falling apart as of late with a 3.40 goals against per game average over their five game cold streak and ranking bottom five in offense with a 2.20 goals per game average thanks to injuries to their key forwards Matty Beniers and Yanni Gourde.
The Blues should play them to a tight defensive game where the game should end with one team only winning by one which feels like the Blues but either case one goals helps us secure this bet.
