Randy’s Free Pick

The Philadelphia Flyers don’t win on the road, and they don’t have the offensive horses to keep up with the Kraken. The Seattle Kraken are due for a bounce back victory, especially at home, and even with this recent cold stretch they’re still a top-5 team in the league in terms of profitability. Give me the Kraken and the PL for max betting value.
