Seattle Kraken vs Anaheim Ducks prediction

I’m not thrilled to back the Seattle Kraken on the road as favorites, but it’s just an indication of how bad the Ducks are. The Anaheim Ducks continue to have issues at both ends of the ice and home hasn’t helped much, where they’re just 5-11. The Kraken are the better team, even if it’s not by much, and they’ve won the last 3 games against the Ducks, and the last two meetings have been decided by a score of 9-3. Give me the Kraken.
