Kraken vs Rangers Predictions and Picks
Seattle is 25th in scoring, ninth in goals against, ninth on the power play, and 32nd on the penalty kill. Matty Beniers leads the team in assists. The Kraken are 10-8-3 on the road and 7-1-2 in their last 10 games. Despite losing their last two games by a score of 3-2, this team still has a good stretch hockey going for them. Those two losses were against the best team in the East Canes and the top three Minnesota Wild in the West. They need to get some puck luck back and get some more special teams chances.
New York is 29th in scoring, 11th in goals against, 12th on the power play, and 15th on the penalty kill. Artemi Panarin leads the team in assists and points. The Rangers are 5-11-4 at home and 3-5-2 in their last 10 games. New York has lost three games in a row and have been stuck on two goals in all three of those contests. They have also lost six of their last seven games with a couple of good efforts against elite teams, but just no offense. This team just had the ugliest loss and will definitely be ready to actually find some offense at home to bounce back fast.
Best Bet: Rangers Money line
New York is favored at home in this game mostly because of their 10-2 loss. Most teams will usually bounce back from a loss that bad. The Kraken are going through a way better stretch than New York and will still have a good effort, but the Rangers will be looking to do all the little things right.
