Seattle Kraken at Chicago Blackhawks Preview & Picks

Chicago are tipped to continue their good form with another home win.

The Blackhawks are enjoying their best run of the season, while Seattle continue to stack up defeats on their travels.

  • Chicago Blackhawks have won 5 of their last 6 games
  • Seattle Kraken have lost 6 of their previous 9 road games
  • 4 of Chicago Blackhawks’ last 6 games have produced over 5.5 goals

Head To Head

  • Seattle Kraken lead the all-time series 9-4
  • Seattle Kraken won 3-1 when the two teams last met on November 3

Seattle Kraken Form

Seattle head to Chicago on a poor run of form, having lost six of their last 10 games to fall to 9-5-5.

The Kraken began this sequence with back-to-back overtime defeats at home, as they were beaten 4-3 by Montreal and 3-2 by the New York Rangers.

They rallied to beat Chicago 3-1, and then bounced back from a 6-1 defeat to San Jose with a 4-3 overtime victory in St Louis.

Seattle again failed to back up a win as they lost 2-1 in Dallas, and that was followed by a 2-1 shootout loss at home to Columbus.

The Kraken bounced back to win the next two at home, beating Winnipeg 5-3 and San Jose 4-1, but they were unable to make it three-in-a-row as they lost 4-2 in Detroit.

Chicago Blackhawks Form

Chicago enter this matchup on their best run of the season so far, having won five of their last six games to improve to 10-5-4.

The Blackhawks ended October with a 6-3 defeat in Winnipeg, and then began November with a 3-2 overtime loss to Edmonton and a 3-1 defeat in Seattle.

They snapped that skid with a 5-2 win in Vancouver, and backed that up with further road wins, beating Calgary 4-0 and Detroit 5-1.

Chicago failed to make it four-in-a-row as they lost 4-3 in overtime at home to New Jersey, but they have not lost since.

The Blackhawks rebounded to beat Toronto 3-2, and backed that up with a 5-2 success against Calgary.

Verdict

Chicago have been in good form over the past couple of weeks and have momentum firmly on their side.

Seattle do not travel well either, so we are backing the Blackhawks to deliver at the United Center.
