Kraken vs Oilers prediction
Kraken vs Oilers best bet: Connor McDavid Over 1.5 points (-135)
The Edmonton Oilers have a 14-4-1 record against the Seattle Kraken, and Connor McDavid is a big reason why.
McDavid has 25 career points in 16 games against Seattle, including a hat-trick performance the last time these teams met back in December.
I’m backing McDavid to power the Oilers again tonight with another multi-point performance. He’s eclipsed this mark in three straight games, totaling eight points in that stretch.
Additionally, the Kraken enter tonight losing five of their last six games, with a 4.16 GAA and a .869 SV%.

Kraken vs Oilers same-game parlay
Evan Bouchard leads all NHL defensemen with 86 points, tallying 66 assists. He’s registered 1+ assists in four straight and in 14 of his last 17 overall.
The Oilers are prone to allowing goals, averaging 3.35 goals against this season. Bobby McMann has been a goal-scoring machine with seven goals in eight games since being traded to Seattle, and is priced at +235 to score tonight.
I’ll juice up the SGP by adding his anytime goal prop as the third leg.
