MatchPlug Prediction
Seattle may have lost three consecutive matches, but they will sit up and control today’s game from the first period.
The Kraken should have no problems finding the back of the net with McCann and Eberle leading the forward unit to carry the puck into the offensive zone and creating open shots.
They will curb the Philadelphia Flyers offense that scored just four goals in the past three games. Dunn, Larsson, and the other defensive unit players will create turnovers in the defensive zone and limit shots on the net. This should allow Jones to save plenty of goals.
The Seattle Krakens should win the matchup to end their losing streak with a great performance on the road.
Final Prediction: Seattle Kraken Moneyline.
