Calgary hammered Seattle 6-2 five days ago, and the market is still holding it against the Kraken. I’m not. The Flames have won only 2 of 7 on the road and have been outscored 53-38 this season. Seattle has been home and rested since that game, and this is the biggest gap on tonight’s NHL board. Kraken.
The Matchup
- Revenge at Climate Pledge. Seattle has won 8 of its 14 games and four of six at home. The 6-2 loss in Calgary on Oct. 30 was its last game, so the Kraken have had five days to stew on it. Frederick Gaudreau leads them with 7 goals.
- Calgary’s split personality. The Flames have won 7 of their last 10, but look where: five of their seven wins came at home. On the road they lost 4-0 in Edmonton and 5-2 in Colorado before squeezing out a 2-1 win in San Jose on Monday. Joel Farabee has 5 goals and 10 assists.
- Rest. Seattle hasn’t played since Oct. 30. Calgary played Monday.
- Puck drop. 10:00 PM ET at Climate Pledge Arena.

The Number
Strip the margin out and the market makes Seattle about a 54% favorite. Our numbers have the Kraken near 64%. That’s the biggest gap on tonight’s board, and it rests on our ratings, not on news, so it stays a lean.
The honest case against: Calgary just beat this team by four, and the Flames have been playing better hockey lately than their record says. It’s a Lean, and win or lose, it lands on the receipts page.
