The Krakens have already had great success making it to the playoffs this season - no one mainly expected the team in the first round. But in the first game of the series with Colorado, Dave Hakstol's team showed they were ready to surprise even more. Seattle took advantage of Colorado's mistakes, scored three times, and forced their opponent to play slow and sticky hockey to win, 3-1.
The second game also got off to a great start. The Kraken opened the scoring and finished the period with a 2-0. However, for the second and third periods, it seemed they didn't have enough strength - the Avalanche shot ed three times and won 3-2. In any case, in the series opening games, Seattle met the easiest task, taking one of the two away games. But beating Colorado on the road wasn't any easier than beating them at home.
Colorado
The Avalanche became the second team in the Western Conference on the road, losing to Vegas by only one point. So a loss in one of their two home games does not reduce Colorado's chances of advancing to the next round.
As for the results in the opening games, it was as if the Avalanche needed four periods to get up and run. In the fifth period, however, Jared Bednar's team finally switched on and outplayed their opponent reasonably confidently.
Expect Betting Tips
It took Colorado an entire game and the first period of the second period to get into a playoff game. But once Jared Bednar's team finally got the hang of it, they confidently picked up the win. The picture is unlikely to change in Seattle, and Colorado will regain home arena advantage from the first game. We bet on the victory of the reigning champion and not the most productive matchup.
