The Blues lead the all-time series 2-5-3, including a 1-3-1 record at home, but the Kraken aim to improve their standing.
Seattle's Shane Wright heads into the game riding a three-game point streak, tallying five points (2g/3a) since February 8. Wright netted his thirteenth goal Sunday night against Tampa Bay Lightning. Andre Burakovsky and Jordan Eberle will also be key players to watch—Burakovsky leads the Kraken with 9 goals and shares the team lead in points (19) against St. Louis, while Eberle shares the team lead in goals (9) and points (19) in a team-high 36 career games against the Blues.
Vince Dunn, who played for St. Louis for four seasons, is also worth watching. The defenseman has 25 points (10g/15a) this season and has four points (1g/3a) in nine career games against his former team.
For the Blues, defenseman Colton Parayko comes into the game on a hot streak after scoring the game-winning goal in St. Louis' victory over Colorado on February 23. Parayko leads all Blues defensemen with 13 goals this season, ranking fifth among all NHL defensemen in that category.
The Kraken and Blues will meet again on April 12 in Seattle for the final matchup of the season series.
Puck drop is scheduled for 5pm PDT.
