After the break, St. Louis lost to Winnipeg (3-4) in a shootout and beat Colorado (3-1).

Seattle

Seattle's in the same boat. Their playoff chances are even less, as it's 13th in the West with 54 points. A nine-point gap from eighth-place Vancouver is very solid. The Kraken has had a bit of a rough time recently, losing four out of the last six games. They were pretty unsuccessful against Tampa Bay recently, losing 1-4.
