Carolina Hurricanes vs. Seattle Kraken: Betting Odds
The Hurricanes have started the season with two straight wins. The team appears to be full of confidence at the moment. They began Game 1 with a thumping 4-1 win against the Columbus Blue Jackets and then on the road against the San Jose Sharks (2-1). Carolina was simply the best team last season with an impressive overall record of 54-20, on top of the Metropolitan division.
Their playoff journey was short-lived, losing out 4-3 to the New York Rangers in Round 1. However, they have again turned up well prepared for the season with a brilliant all-round team. Martin Necas is leading the team from the front, having scored two goals and provided two assists for the season.

Carolina Hurricanes vs. Seattle Kraken: Pick
Injuries to Jake Gardiner and Max Pacioretty have put a dent in Seattle's defense and the offense. They are already behind in the season, and facing a team like Carolina could turn into a nightmare. The Hurricanes will arrive in full confidence and style to finish off the game and keep the winning momentum going forward.
Pick: Hurricanes Puck Line -1.5 (+155)
Carolina Hurricanes vs. Seattle Kraken: Prediction
The way last season ended for Carolina, it looked like they had a vision. They will try to carry forward the same vision this season by going as far as possible in the post-season, possibly playing the Stanley Cup. The team has even started on an authoritative note, showcasing their talent. Even if Seattle is playing at home, it will be a big upset if they manage to beat the Hurricanes. However, the possibility of it happening is highly unlikely.
Prediction: Carolina Hurricanes Total Team Goals Over 4.5 (+235)
