The Seattle Kraken continue a long road trip as they face the Boston Bruins.  It is time to continue our NHL odds series with a Kraken-Bruins prediction, pick, and how-to-watch.

The Kraken entered the game sitting at 22-21-10 on the year but have struggled as of late. They have won just one of their last four games, and scoring has been an issue, with just five goals in the last four games. Last time out, they visited the New York Islanders.  The Kraken scored first, with a goal from Matty Beniers in the first period, just 5:27 into the game. In the second period, Kyle Palmieri tied the game on a power-play goal. That would be the end of scoring though. Philipp Grubauer saved 26 of 27 shots for the Kraken, as the game went to a shootout, where the Kraken would take the victory.

Meanwhile, the Bruins are 32-11-10 on the year but also have lost three of their last four games. Last time out, the Bruins faced the Tampa Bay Lightning. Erik Cernak scored for the Lightning in the first period, and then just 1:06 into the second period, Nikita Kucherov scored on the power play to make it 2-0. The Bruins would strike back, as Charlie McAvoy scored less than a minute later and then James van Riemsdyk would tie it up in the second. This would lead to a shootout, where Brayden Point would win it for the Lightning.

Final Kraken-Bruins Prediction & Pick

Both goalies in this game are great. They are two of the best in the NHL in save percentage and goals against average. Combining that with the fact that both teams are struggling to score as of late, will guide this play. In the last ten games, the Kraken are averaging just 2.2 goals per game, boosted by a six-goal performance against the Blackhawks. The Bruins are averaging 3.6 goals per game in their last ten, but since the all-star break, they have averaged under two goals per game. With both teams struggling to score and two solid goaltenders, take the under in this one.
