Kraken vs Blues Prediction

For a moneyline pick, I’m taking the Blues to pick up on a win over the Kraken at home. With the moneyline sitting at -138, I’ll be locking in a bet on the Blues straight-up.

When it comes to a puck line pick, our choice is the Blues to secure the win and cover. Expect the Blues to dominate this one with a multi-goal win over the Kraken.

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.
