Chicago Blackhawks vs Seattle Kraken Prediction: Expect a lot of pucks

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on November 29. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The team is still getting used to living without Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews, who have been carrying the team on their shoulders for the last few years, but now they must look for new heroes. There is no doubt that one of them will be Connor Bedard, who at 18 is already averaging about one goal per game, but it's too early for him to be a real leader, and his partners don't support him. All of this has led to the fact that in the last seven games, they have suffered six defeats in regulation time, and only Toronto managed to beat them in overtime - 4:3. The Hawks are 15th in the Western Conference standings.

Seattle exists only for the third year, but during this time, they have already tasted cup battles, where they beat the reigning Stanley Cup winner in the first series in the club's history. There is no doubt that this season, the Krakens will try to make their way further down the playoff net but to do so, they need to earn a good standings position. They are not having a great regular season, but they have made progress lately: in their last five games, they have lost only once in regulation time, lost once in overtime, and won the other three. That's good enough for ninth place in the Western Conference standings.

Chicago is one of the main outsiders in the league this season. If, in the debut of the regular season, the Hawks were still trying to periodically demonstrate good results, they have scored only 2 out of a possible 14 points in the last seven games. Seattle also has a lot of game problems, but their skill level is better, so they are not far from the playoff zone and are gradually improving. The head-to-head statistics also favor them, as they have won four of the last five meetings.

The confrontation between Chicago and Seattle has become abnormally productive lately. In the last regular season, the rivals played three head-to-head meetings, combining for 32 goals (10.67 average per game).
