Kraken vs Flames Prediction
These teams have traded victories in recent years as each recorded five in the previous ten H2H duels. This season, the Kraken lead the series 2-1; both of their wins came in overtime. It’s going to be another close encounter, but I am giving a slight advantage to the Flames, who are on a three-game winning streak and in better general form than the Kraken. Seattle could be without its top performer Chandler Stephenson, who is dealing with an upper-body injury and is listed as day-to-day. If he is unable to play, the Flames’ chances of getting a win will rise. I am backing the Flames.
