Seattle Kraken vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction
I’m on the Golden Knights here. Vegas finally got off the skid on the road and now gets to build on that against a Kraken team that just keeps finding ways to struggle and can’t get out of their own way. The Golden Knights are just the far better team in better form, and we’re getting a reasonable price with them here. Give me Vegas.
