Seattle Kraken vs Winnipeg Jets prediction

The Seattle Kraken are coming off a nice road win last night over the Flames, but they have to prove they can string together success. It’s been hit or miss for the Kraken all season long. The Winnipeg Jets have been far and away the more trustworthy team, and they’ve owned the Kraken in the limited meetings. The Jets are also 21-7-2 at home this season. I’d assume with the rest advantage, the Jets can get the job done here on Tuesday night. Give me the Jets and the reasonable price.
