Dallas are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games on the road.
Seattle are 5-15 SU in their last 20 games.
Seattle are 2-8 SU in their last 10 games at home.
Prediction
There's nothing much to think about on this game as the Kraken have been terrible the whole season, they win only the 30% of the time and have lost 8 of their last 10 games at home. The Stars have been good lately and are on 5 game winning streak on the road, they already beat the Kraken by 3 goals earlier this season and I don't see how that can change tonight. Take the Stars to win.
