Canucks vs Kraken prediction

Canucks vs Kraken best bet: Elias Pettersson Over 0.5 assists (+175)

Elias Pettersson isn’t the All-Star he once was, but he’s still putting up respectable numbers in 2025-26. The Vancouver Canucks center has scored 13 goals and tallied 22 assists across 50 appearances.

Pettersson tallied a helper in Wednesday’s loss to the Winnipeg Jets, and he’s now grabbed four assists across his last six games. On the road, the 27-year-old has nine helpers in 25 contests.

He’s already set up one goal against the Seattle Kraken this season across two meetings.
