St. Louis has won five of the past seven meetings, although they did lose the first one this season, 4-3 in overtime on Nov. 8. The Blues have gone OVER six in a row, and seven of the past 10 meetings with Seattle have gone OVER. Joel Hofer is confirmed to start for the Blues as they give Jordan Binnington some rest following his Olympic performances. Hofer has a 2.94 goals-against average with four shutouts in 2025-26. The Kraken have lost five of their seven road games, and they are 2-5 in their past seven road games against the Blues. Seattle lost two of three before the break.
