Kraken vs Stars Prediction
The Kraken continue to have issues stringing success together, as they’ve won two straight games just once over the last month. The Stars are back to their winning ways with wins in four straight games, and they’ve been rolling on both sides of the ice in those games. The Stars have won eight of the last 10 games against the Kraken, and that includes five straight wins. It’s hard to go with the Kraken given the form of both teams. These are two sides heading in different directions. Give me the Stars, and I’ll lay the PL to shave down the price.
