Kraken vs Flames Prediction

For a moneyline bet, I’m backing the Flames to secure a victory over the Kraken at home. With the moneyline currently set at -135, I’m locking in my bet on the Flames straight-up.

If you’re looking for my recommendation on the puck line, I suggest taking the Kraken to cover. Even if the Flames manage to win outright, this game is expected to remain competitive, and the Kraken should cover the puck line.

When considering the over/under line, which is currently at 5.5 goals, we believe that this game will go over that threshold, and we recommend wagering on the over.
