Even though Kraken is still in the playoff zone, you can't say they're guaranteed a postseason spot. Since Seattle has fallen to fourth place in the Pacific Division standings and in the Western Conference summary table, being in the wild-card zone, they are only 7 points ahead of their pursuers.
In the previous game, after three defeats in a row, Seattle, with great difficulty, beat the outsider of the Western Conference, San Jose. The game ended in overtime, where Vince Dunn scored the winning puck (2:1).
Edmonton Oilers
Seattle has struggled of late, but Edmonton is in fine form. Last game, the team left no chance against Dallas, winning on home ice with a score of 4:1. The Oilers won six of their last eight games during regular time. Edmonton is the team that beat Kraken in the division and moved into the top 3. The opponents are separated by just one point. Still, a win in the upcoming game would bring Edmonton, given their fancy conditioning, much closer to making the playoffs at the end of the championship through the division.
Expert Betting Tips
Edmonton is the top team this season in road games. Twenty-two of the Oilers' 34 away games have ended with a TO (6.5). This is the bet we will take here because Seattle, on home ice lately, too, conducts entirely productive matches. That's how four of the Kraken's last six home games ended with seven-plus goals. In the remaining two, six goals were scored. Also, you might consider betting on Edmonton here as well. The Oilers have lost only four of their previous 15 away games in regulation time.
