St Louis vs Chicago Prediction: the Hawks Still Can't Win Away

Prediction for the NHL-1 match between St Louis vs Chicago, which will take place on February 9th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

St. Louis

St. Louis is slowly but surely getting further and further away from the playoff zone. The Notes played pretty well this season, and at the turn of December and January, they gained good momentum, which allowed them to win in 8 of 13 battles, but the Blues and Yellows couldn't keep going like this.

In the last seven games, Jim Montgomery's team have only got one win, 2-1 over Utah, one more point in a 2-3 overtime loss to Edmonton, and five times they haven't got any points at all. St. Louis is now 11th in the Western Conference standings.

Chicago

Chicago has been a bit of an underdog recently. It looked like, in his second year in the league, Connor Bedard would be able to carry the whole team on his shoulders, but the 19-year-old hockey player still doesn't have the experience to play the whole regular season at a consistently high level.

In the last 13 games, Anders Sorensen's team have only won three games, beating Vegas 5-3, Tampa Bay 4-1, and the day before, they beat Nashville 6-2. In the ten remaining meetings, the Hawks suffered defeats, and are now content with only the penultimate place in the Western Conference.
