Panthers vs Kraken Prediction

The Panthers are getting the benefit of the doubt because they’re the Panthers and they’re at home. However, the Panthers season is finished in terms of playoffs and it wouldn’t be surprising to see some of the vets sit as they hope to get healthy for another run next season. Paul Maurice had some interesting words recently.

While the Kraken aren’t playing like it, they’re still in the thick of the playoff race and could use a win to keep those hopes alive. Even with their slumping ways and playing on the road, I still see value in getting the more favorable price with the team that’s still playing for something. I’ll take a shot with the Kraken.
