NY Islanders vs SEA Kraken Prediction: The home team will be stronger

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on February 14. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Islanders are having a pretty mediocre season. The team isn't having a great season, but at the same time, they're leaving all chances to make the playoffs. They are currently fifth in the Metropolitan Division standings with 56 points, just four behind the coveted playoff zone. After a break for the NHL All-Star Game, the Islanders picked up two wins over Toronto (3:2) and Tampa Bay (6:2) before suffering a 2:5 loss to Calgary.

Seattle, in turn, looks also quite average. It's hard to say that the team has any obvious problems - they just play and periodically gain points. At the moment they have 52 points, and there is not much chance to make the playoffs. We note that Kraken has not been doing very well lately, either - eight losses in ten previous meetings. The day before, they lost once again - with a score of 1-3 to New Jersey.

In the upcoming meeting we suggest to make a choice in favour of the Islanders. New Yorkers will still play at home, and recently they made two wins in a row. While Seattle looks sad on the road - six defeats in a row, all in regulation time. We offer a bet on the final victory of the home team (including overtime and shootout).
