Emerald City Clash: Confidence to Bank On

Utah Hockey Club

Utah (29-25-11) @ Kraken (28-34-4)

Mar 14, 2025 | 9:00 PM ET | Seattle, WA

Seattle Kraken
Pick: Utah, Moneyline (-130): B+

Jordan Eberle remains a key presence for Seattle, yet the Kraken stumble into this matchup with less than stellar form, while Utah arrives in good form. Utah boasts a relatively healthy roster, aside from their second-line winger nursing a lingering upper-body issue. Historically, Utah has found success in Seattle’s barn, managing to snatch multiple victories in recent seasons against similar Western Conference foes. Taken together, the momentum, tighter injury concerns, and Utah's track record offer enough edge to back them at -130 with a confident B+ rating, considering the moderate payoff aligned with the odds.

Over/Under Pick: Over 6, (+115) - A-

Center Matty Beniers appears ready to play for the Seattle Kraken, despite the team’s current three-game slide, while Utah’s determined roster rides a modest two-game win streak into this contest. The Kraken’s injury list has been thinning lately, though notable absences like Andre Burakovsky still loom large for shifting line combinations. Historically, these teams have produced high-scoring battles when squaring off against Pacific Division foes, and with an even six-goal marker, there’s solid likelihood for a flurry of pucks finding the net. With enticing odds and the potential for a strong payout, the Over looks poised to reward bettors nicely tonight.

Puckline Pick: Utah, -1.5 (-185) - B+

Utah's leading scorer has been red-hot over their current three-game win streak, and with Seattle dropping its last two outings, the momentum swings toward the visitors. Having confirmed the active rosters, the notable absence of a key Kraken forward due to an upper-body concern further tilts this matchup in Utah’s favor. Over recent seasons, Utah has consistently found success against other Pacific squads, and this trend appears set to continue here. Our assessment points to a moderate payout at -185, capturing decent profit potential alongside a likely cover on the puckline.
