Flames at Kraken picks and predictions

Prediction

Kraken 4, Flames 3

Moneyline

The KRAKEN (-105) are worth a roll of the dice in what is essentially a pick ’em.

Seattle picked up a 5-4 win in Calgary back on Nov. 1 in the first meeting behind G Joey Daccord as the Over connected.

Puck line/Against the spread

The Flames +1.5 (-290) will cost you nearly 3 times your potential return if you would like some insurance on the road team. If you like Calgary, just play it straight up.

PASS.

Over/Under

OVER 6.5 (+115) is a solid value at plus money.

We saw the Over (6.5) connect in the first meeting, and we’re getting a battle of Vladar and Grubauer, both of whom have been very giving lately.

The Over is 5-2 in the past 7 games overall for Calgary, while going 4-1 in the past 5 games against teams with a winning overall record.

The Over is 4-1 in the past 5 games inside the division for the Kraken while going 29-13-5 in the past 47 games against losing teams, too.
