Kraken vs Panthers Prediction

I’m on the Panthers. I just think that a win over the Canucks doesn’t really move the needle all that much for me with Seattle, and the Panthers have started to play some really solid hockey over the last little bit. I think this is a spot where the Panthers go on the road and take it to Seattle on a back-to-back, so give me Florida here.
