Kraken vs Blues Prediction & Odds - 4/12/2025

The St. Louis Blues bring their eight-wins-in-ten-games momentum to Climate Pledge Arena, where they'll face a Seattle Kraken team that's dropped two straight and sits near the Pacific Division basement.

Goaltending could tell the story—Jordan Binnington's solid .900 save percentage for the Blues against Joey Daccord's impressive 12.3 goals saved above average for the Kraken—though St. Louis holds significant edges in both scoring (3.01 goals per game) and defense (allowing just 2.84).

The playoff-hungry Blues (-140) look to capitalize on their defensive prowess against a Kraken squad that's managed just two goals in their last two outings when the Seattle Kraken host the St. Louis Blues in Saturday's late-night showdown.

Seattle Kraken vs. St. Louis Blues preview

Tonight, the Blues roll into Climate Pledge Arena with playoff dreams flickering bright, riding an impressive streak of eight wins in their last ten games as they face a floundering Kraken squad that's dropped two straight and sits near the Pacific Division basement.

St. Louis leans on their stingy defense allowing just 2.84 goals per game - they've surrendered a mere 29 goals in their last 14 outings - with Philip Broberg and veteran Ryan Suter anchoring the blueline while Jordan Binnington has been rock-solid between the pipes.

The dynamic duo of Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou have powered the Blues' attack with a combined 55 goals and 90 assists, though they'll need to solve Seattle's Joey Daccord, who's been a bright spot for the Kraken with 12.3 goals saved above average despite his team's struggles.

Seattle's offense has gone stone cold lately, mustering just two goals in their previous two games, making life difficult for Jared McCann and Chandler Stephenson who've tried carrying the scoring load all season.

The Blues' recent 4-3 setback against Edmonton stung, but they'll be hungry to bounce back and inch closer to cementing their postseason berth.

Look for Jamie Oleksiak and Adam Larsson to try to slow down the Blues' attack, though St. Louis has shown they can create offense from the backend with Justin Faulk and Cam Fowler combining for 13 goals and 53 assists from the point.

With Seattle's leaky defense surrendering 3.16 goals per game, Blues forwards should find room to operate, especially if they can capitalize on their power play which has converted at a respectable 21.28% clip this season.

This late-season clash won't lack intensity - the desperate Blues fighting for playoff positioning while the Kraken aim to salvage some pride in front of their home crowd at the tail end of a disappointing campaign.
