We have a Western Conference NHL matchup as the Seattle Kraken are on the road to take on the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday night inside the Canada Life Centre for our Kraken vs. Jets prediction. The Kraken (3-2-2, 8 points) are third in the Pacific Division and are on a two-game losing streak as they are coming off a 4-1 road loss on Tuesday against the Washington Capitals. The Jets (5-1-0, 10 points) are second in the Central Division as they are on a five-game winning streak as they are coming off a 2-1 road win over the Calgary Flames on Monday. This is the first of three games against one another as they will play again in mid-November. Skate to an edge with NHL picks for the Seattle Kraken at the Winnipeg Jets.

Kraken Looking to Do Better on the Road

The Seattle Kraken are 17th in the NHL with 19 goals scored entering this game. Center Jaden Schwartz has been leading the way for the team as he has recorded five points (two goals, three assists) so far this season and recorded a goal on four shot attempts in his last game against the Capitals over 19:27 on the ice. Their power play has been slightly above the league average as they converted on 5-of-22 (22.73 percent) of their attempts, so they have shown the ability to take advantage on that front.

Joey Daccord is expected to be in the net for this game and he is 3-1-1 with 3.09 goals allowed per game and a .889 save percentage so far. He last played on Monday against the Philadelphia Flyers in a loss where he allowed five goals on 21 shot attempts. As a team, Seattle is middling on the defensive side of the ice as they rank 20th in hockey with 22 goals allowed. They are below the league average in terms of killing penalties, as they have killed 12-of-18 (66.67 percent) of them.

Center Mark Scheifele is leading the team as he has 10 points (seven goals, three assists) thus far, and in his last game against the Calgary Flames, he recorded a game-winning goal on four shots during his 20:40 on the ice.

Seattle Kraken at Winnipeg Jets Pick

Spread Pick for Kraken vs. Jets

  • Seattle Kraken +1.5 (4 units)

Joey Daccord and Connor Hellebuyck have been able to play at a strong level to begin the season and keep their teams in the game. Seattle has been able to score 2.8 goal in their previous five games, so they have been putting pressure on the opposing offense. Neither team has shown to be too aggressive in terms of shooting the puck, which means less goals are being scored. Seattle is allowing 28.4 shots on goal per game while Winnipeg is giving up 30.8 per game, so the Kraken have an advantage defensively as well. All in all, go with the Seattle Kraken to cover the puck line on the road.

Over/Under Pick for Kraken vs. Jets

  • UNDER 5.5 (5 units)

Both teams are starting their main goaltenders for this game and that should help limit the number of times the puck goes in the back of the net. With both teams having significant offensive weapons on the injury report, there is a lot of questions about their ability to score the puck as well. Throughout the season, both teams are struggling to get many shots on target as Seattle is tied for 25th with 25.4 shots on goal per game, while Winnipeg is 30th with only 24.0 shots on goal per game thus far. The under has hit in six of the previous nine games against one another, so go with UNDER 5.5 GOALS here.
