Seattle Kraken vs. Dallas Stars Prediction

I’m on the under here. Historically, the under has been money between these two teams, and as well as both teams have been playing going into the olympic break, I think that the long layoff could produce some rust and goals could be hard to come by between two teams playing really solid hockey right now. Give me the under.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Under 5.5
