Rangers vs Kraken Pick
Spread Pick for Rangers vs Kraken
- Seattle Kraken Money Line (4 units)
I'm going to roll with the home underdog here. While New York has been terrific on the road thus far, I expect them to regress a bit during the course of the season. Seattle has been quite consistent with their scoring, reaching 3+ goals in each of their last three games while the Rangers will either score 4+ or less than two on most nights. Considering the Rangers rank 30th in goals per game right now and Seattle is a top ten defense in terms of goals against per game, I expect Seattle to do enough on offense to get the win here.
Over/Under pick for Rangers vs Kraken
- Under 5.5 (4 units)
These two teams are 5-3 on the under when going head-to-head. The Rangers are one of the worst scoring teams overall in the league and Shesterkin is always a formidable presence in net. Daccord is having a decent start to the year with a 2.68 GAA and a 90.5% save percentage while Seattle is a top ten scoring defense right now. If they can do better on the penalty kill, they should be able to hold the Rangers to two goals or less. New York has one of the worst power play units in the league right now and they have scored two goals or less in three of their last five games.
