San Jose Sharks vs Seattle Kraken Prediction

Give me the value with the Sharks here. The Sharks offense was sure impressive on Saturday scoring seven goals and they are going to put on a show again here. The Seattle Kraken’s defense has zero confidence left and this game is going to get out of control early. There is no way that I am laying this type of number with the Kraken. Back the Sharks on the money line to cash here.
