Honey, wake up, we have Kraken vs. Hurricanes prediction from Finland this afternoon. Ei mitään samanlaista kuin jääkiekko Suomessa, amirite? That loosely translates to "there's nothing like some hockey in Finland." Google tells me that, at least.
The Carolina Hurricanes are massive 76% favorites at Novig, so we'll be focusing on the total instead.
Tap into my NHL picks for Saturday, Nov. 14, and let's keep building.
TOP PICK
Kraken vs Hurricanes prediction: Under 6.5
The Carolina Hurricanes are just too defensively sound for this number to go over. They limited the Seattle Kraken to one goal in their first game in Finland, and now Pyotr Kochetkov takes over - he's 11-1-0 with a 1.87 goals-against average (8.8 goals saved above expected); not bad.
Carolina has gone under the number in five of their last eight games, and with Seattle scoring just seven goals over their last four games, I'll take advantage of defense-first hockey.
This is playable to 57%.
COVERS INTEL: The Hurricanes are currently eighth in the NHL in expected goals against, just another notch to the way they play in front of their goaltenders. Seattle won't do enough for this to get to the number.
Kraken vs Hurricanes combo
Carolina made an absolute statement in its 4-1 win over Seattle on Thursday, holding the Kraken to just 13 shots on goal and completely suffocating their offense.
The Hurricanes have now won seven of their last eight games, and Sebastian Aho is putting on a show in his home country, scoring twice in the opener and recording multiple points in three straight contests. Seattle had no answer for Carolina's relentless pressure, and that's the biggest advantage we're playing off of on Saturday. The boys are difficult to stop as it is, Seattle won't be up for the task.
Kraken vs Hurricanes combo
- Under 6.5
- Hurricanes -1.5
- Sebastian Aho 1+ point
Kraken vs Hurricanes player prop: Seth Jarvis 1+ point
The Hurricanes' forecheck should create plenty of offensive-zone opportunities again Saturday. Seth Jarvis, while on the third line, has the finishing ability and offensive instincts to capitalize; the Jarvis-Taylor Hall duo generated plenty of chances on Thursday but weren't able to find the back of the net. That won't happen twice.
Kraken vs Hurricanes goal scorer: Sebastian Aho
Aho is on a heater, scoring four goals in November alone. His line (William Carrier-Aho-Andrei Svechnikov) is fourth in all of hockey in xGoals%, leading me to believe another opportunity is in the cards for the Fin to find the back of the net. The Hurricanes have the most potent offense in hockey, and Aho leads the charge. The Kraken will crack once more on Saturday.
