Blues Wrap Up Home Stretch
The St. Louis Blues’ run of six straight home games comes to an end on Tuesday when they welcome the Seattle Kraken to Enterprise Center.
The Blues have gone 2-1-2 so far during this stretch, and they sit five points behind Vancouver for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference with Calgary and Utah still ahead of them as well. The Blues are currently +1060 to make the playoffs on FanDuel.
Binnington About To Go On A Run?
One factor giving Blues fans hope for a potential playoff push is the play of Jordan Binnington. After a dazzling performance for Canada in the 4 Nations Face-Off championship game, Binnington followed that up by stopping 28 of 29 shots in a 3-1 win over Colorado on Sunday.
The Blues have been a profitable team to the under this season, and a hot goalie can certainly help that continue. If you would have bet the under in every Blues game this season, your record would be 31-23-4 (57.4%).
Kraken Games Quiet Of Late
Seattle has seen both of its games go under since returning from the 4 Nations Face-Off with a 2-1 win at Florida followed by a 4-1 defeat at Tampa Bay. The under has cashed in eight of the Kraken’s last eleven contests, including each of their last five road games.
When Seattle has been an underdog this season like they will be on Tuesday, the under has cashed at a 56.7% clip.
My Lean
The Blues’ under trend has been particularly profitable at home, as the under has a 64.2% hit rate in their games at Enterprise Center. We also saw the only previous matchup between these two teams go under in a 3-2 Blues win in the opening game of the season in Seattle.
And we’ve seen Binnington go on runs before where he is locked in and tough to put pucks past. I’m cautiously optimistic he’s on one right now.
