Blues vs Hockey Club predictions

When it comes to the St. Louis Blues, all eyes are on Jordan Kyrou. With a total of 21 goals and leading his team with 42 points so far this season, Kyrou's got the magic touch that could change the course of any game. You'd say there's no better time for him to light up the rink, especially with Robert Thomas on injured reserve. Thomas has been a crucial playmaker this season with 24 assists, so his absence means Kyrou might have to step up his game even further. What's the betting line on Kyrou hitting the back of the net again? Pretty high. Keep your radar on him because he's the one who might just keep the Blues in contention during this faceoff.

Over on the Utah bench, Clayton Keller is the man making waves, though there's a little cloud of uncertainty with him being day-to-day. Keller's been on a roll with 18 goals and a whopping 38 assists, leading to a whopping 56 points. Even if he’s not at 100%, he’s the kind of player who can still change the dynamics of a game. Imagine how he could seize the opportunity to further bolster his stats and help Utah maintain their series lead? Whether you’re an optimist or a pessimist about his health status, his contribution could tip the scales in Utah's favor.

As for a prediction, given the information on hand, it's not crazy to lean towards the Utah Hockey Club snagging the win here. They've edged out St. Louis twice already and the question remains if it’s really a case of third time lucky for the Blues. Both teams have reasonable track records, but home advantage at the Delta Center could give Utah that extra edge to close the deal. With the odds slightly favoring Utah, and factoring in Keller's capability to perform even under day-to-day conditions, the scales seem to weigh heavier in Utah's favor this time. What do you think? Will the Blues turn the tables, or is the Utah streak destined to continue?
