Seattle Kraken vs. Carolina Hurricanes Prediction

I’m on the Kraken +1.5 here. I get the case to be made for either side here but as much as I respect the Hurricanes at home, the Kraken are playing competitive hockey and are riding a nice point streak coming into this game and I think they can at least make it competitive here. I think we’re looking at a one goal game if Seattle doesn’t win outright so give me the Kraken +1.5.
