In this article, we will formulate a Kraken vs Golden Knights prediction for this NHL game on Thursday, April 10, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this NHL matchup.
Seattle Kraken Betting Preview
The Seattle Kraken (34-39-6, 40-39 ATS) are currently on a five-game road trip and they won the opening three games over the Canucks, Sharks, and Kings but lost heavily to the Hockey Club, 7-1. Seattle will close the season with two home games after this tilt in Las Vegas. The Kraken are 13th in the Western Conference and will probably stay there when the season ends.
The Kraken average 2.99 goals per game this year (15th), while they allow 3.18 GPG (23rd). Jared McCann leads the team with 59 points (21 G and 38 A). Chandler Stephenson contributes 51 points (13 G and 38 A), while Jaden Schwartz has 47 points (24 G and 23 A).
Joey Daccord (27-21-5) will likely take his place in the cage for the Kraken on Thursday against the Golden Knights. The 28-year-old is allowing 2.70 goals per game this year with a .908 SV% and two shutouts.
Vegas Golden Knights Betting Preview
The Vegas Golden Knights (47-22-9, 45-33 ATS) were in an excellent form of six consecutive wins to close the previous month and returned home from a three-game road trip on which they beat the Flames and Canucks and lost to the Avalanhce. The Golden Knights are 3rd in the Western Conference with 103 points, three ahead of the Avs and three behind the Stars.
The Golden Knights score 3.32 goals per game on average (6th), while they concede 2.63 GPG (5th). This season, Jack Eichel leads the team with 93 points (27 G and 66 A). Mark Stone has 67 points (19 G and 48 A), while Tomas Hertl chips in with 59 points (31 G and 28 A).
Akira Schmid (1-0-1) is expected to start for the Golden Knights at the goal on Thursday against the Kraken. The 24-year-old is allowing 1.35 goals per game this year with a .945 SV% and no shutouts.

Kraken vs Golden Knights Prediction
The Golden Knights won seven of the previous ten H2H encounters, including three of the last four. The series is tied at 1-1 this season; the Kraken won 4-3 in Seattle, while the Golden Knights won 6-2 in Las Vegas. Although both those games were high-scoring, I expect a low-scoring affair this time out, mostly because the Knights’ best player, Jack Eichel, is probably going to stay sidelined with an upper-body injury. I don’t think Vegas will want to risk him before the playoffs start. I am still favoring the Golden Knights, but I am staying away from betting on the winner. Go with Under.
