Pick
I’m backing the Kraken here. Normally this does feel like a bounce back spot for Dallas in what’s likely expected to be a close series. However, the Kraken looked really good in game three and I just don’t know what to make of the Dallas Stars right now. The talent is definitely there, but Seattle just seems to show up and provide value when it’s not expected, so give me the Kraken here.
