Seattle at Columbus

Seattle had a slow start this season, but the Kraken are back to playing the way they were last season when they made the playoffs as they have won eight straight after defeating Washington 4-1 on Thursday night. Defensemen Justin Schultz and Adam Larsson scored for Seattle and Joey Daccord had 25 saves to improve to 12-5-8 with a 2.23 goals-against average and a .925 save percentage with two shutouts this season for the Kraken. Goalie Daniil Tarasov will start for Columbus and he has allowed four or more goals in five of seven appearances. Columbus has lost seven of nine and got shut out 5-0 at Winnipeg on Tuesday. The Blue Jackets have lost six of seven home games and five of six overall against the Pacific Division. Take the Kraken as a Max Play.
