Seattle hopes offense improves
The Kraken are having a rocky season with their offense letting them down and scoring only 2.88 goals per game. Jordan Eberle and Matty Beniers have scored 34 goals and 41 assists but the rest of the offense has struggled. Only six skaters have 10 goals or more, and opponents can limit the top-heavy offense as a result.
The offense has struggled but the defense has stepped up, allowing only 2.88 goals per game. Ryan Lindgren and Adam Larsson have combined for 6.5 defensive point shares while Jamie Oleksiak and Ryker Evans have combined for 4.7 defensive point shares to add depth to the unit.

Kraken vs Stars Pick
Money Line Pick For Kraken vs Stars
- Stars (-160) (4 units)
The Kraken look to pull off the upset but the Stars are one of the best teams in the Western Conference, and I see them taking over this game from the first period. The Stars, who average 3.32 goals per game, should find the back of the net at will with Jason Robertson, Wyatt Johnston, and the rest of the forward unit carrying the puck into the offensive zone while creating open shots with quick passes. The Stars should limit the Kraken offense with Thomas Harley, Esa Lindell, and the rest of the defensive unit creating turnovers in the defensive zone while limiting shots on the net, allowing goaltender Casey DeSmith to make plenty of big saves. The Stars should win the game with a strong performance on their home ice.
Take the Stars money line as home Favorites.
Over/Under Pick For Kraken vs Stars
- Under 5.5 (5 Units)
Both teams have played great defense this season, and I see this game being a low-scoring one from the opening puck drop. The Kraken, who allow only 2.88 goals per game, should limit the Stars offense with Ryan Lindgren, Jamie Oleksiak, and the rest of the defensive unit creating turnovers in the defensive zone while limiting shots on the net, allowing goaltender Philipp Grubauer, who has 12.1 goals saved above average, to make plenty of big saves. The Stars, who allow only 2.75 goals per game, should eliminate the Kraken offense, which averages only 2.88 goals per game, with Miro Heiskanen, Esa Lindell, THOMAS Harley, and the rest of the defensive unit forcing turnovers in all three zones while goaltender Casey DeSmith, who has 8.9 defensive point shares, blanks the shots on the net. The Under should cover in a low-scoring game controlled by both defenses.
Take the Under on 5.5 goals.
