"Chicago" - "St. Louis": principle meeting in Edmonton

“St. Louis” is unlikely to speed up their peak form, as they start from the quarterfinals of the conferences, whereas "Chicago" will play the first match against "Edmonton" on August 1. It is unlikely that the coaching staff will overload leaders on the eve of the play-in round and the Blues defense does not fall below a certain level in any state.

Chicago

Chicago played well in March, but the Illinois side finished their interrupted regular season only 12th in the Western Conference table.

Jonathan Toews' squad has generally played well defensively (218) this season, but they should have added in attack (212). The Hawks have lost 30 of 70 regular season matches in regulation time and they would hardly have been able to make the playoffs if not for the new regulations.

St. Louis

The champion of the last season started the new regular season well. St. Louis, even without Vladimir Tarasenko, was on the first line in the conference throughout the season, winning strongest teams in the NHL.

The Blues almost never lost on their own ice. Only in seven games they were left without points, in another five they scored one credit point. In 35 games in Missouri, Alex Pietrangelo's team conceded a modest 85 goals. So, what is the free prediction for the NHL match for today?
