Wild vs Kraken Betting Prediction

Seattle comes into this game playing some solid hockey recently and they are coming off of a great win against Vancouver. The Kraken are 12-9-5 at home this year, while Minnesota is 13-13-2 on the road. The Wild were able to pick up a win in Edmonton on Friday night, so they will be on a back to back here. Minnesota has been a bit inconsistent over their last four games and they were badly outshot against the Oilers on Friday. I think Seattle has a big advantage in this game, as the Wild used a ton of energy in that win last night. Take the Kraken here.
