Long road stretch continues
Seattle enters Winnipeg for its sixth straight road game after losing four of its previous five. The Kraken have been the underdog in each of those contests. Seattle has gone to overtime in four of its first seven games this season and is coming off a 4-1 loss to the Washington Capitals. Seattle is dealing with some injuries as forwards Jared McCann and Mason Marchment are questionable due to lower-body injuries and defenseman Brandon Montour is out due to a famiy matter.

Going for 6th win in a row

Seattle Kraken at Winnipeg Jets Predictions
Moneyline Prediction for Kraken vs. Jets:
- Seattle Kraken +1.5 (-130) (4 units)
The edge goes to Winnipeg, which has won eight of the last 10 meetings. However, nine of the last 10 games between these teams have been decided by just one goal. With Winnipeg ranking 30th in the NHL in shots per game, I don’t expect them to pull away. I’ll take the Kraken to cover rather than lay heavy moneyline juice on the Jets.
Total Prediction for Kraken vs. Jets:
- Under 5.5 (4 units)
Six of the last nine matchups between these teams have gone under the total. Hellebuyck has been dominant, holding opponents to two goals or fewer in his last four starts. With Seattle ranking 25th in shots per game and 21st in goals scored, this projects as a low-scoring contest. Expect Winnipeg to win 3-2, staying under the total.
