Golden Knights vs Kraken Prediction

The Golden Knights were 2-1 in their three meetings against the Kraken last season, losing their only meeting in Seattle by 4-3 in overtime. They are 7-2 in their last 9 meetings against the Kraken, but both teams are tied 2-2 wins in their last 4 meetings in Seattle. Under is 7-3 in their last 10 meetings.   

In this Golden Knights vs Kraken Prediction, the Golden Knights are coming as -170 road favorites. Vegas does not look so good in their first two games of the season, losing at home and then struggling to win the Sharks in overtime. They are killing just 60% of their opponent’s power plays, and have lost their only trip to Seattle last season. Even though they played the Ducks, the Kraken looked good in their season opener, and Daccord looked sharp. I like my chances with the home dog in this matchup, so take the Seattle Kraken on the moneyline for plus money.
