This Thursday will be a special date in the NHL fixture for the Carolina Hurricanes and the Seattle Kraken, as they will face one of the NHL Global Series games in Helsinki. This will be the first time the Kraken face this kind of game, so they are expected to leave a good impression despite facing the current Stanley Cup champions.
With that in mind, the Seattle Kraken should look to create plenty of dangerous chances, as Chandler Stephenson and Kaapo Kakko have frequently provided assists throughout the regular season. Despite this, it cannot be ignored that only Frederick Gaudreau and Matthew Samoskevich have surpassed the 5-goal mark this season, so the Kraken's chances of qualifying for the playoffs are very limited.
Meanwhile, the Carolina Hurricanes will face this game with amazing momentum, as they scored five or more goals in three of their last four games. Furthermore, they've only allowed more than three goals in one of their last five games, so the odds suggest the Hurricanes are favorites, especially when considering Sebastian Aho could be extra motivated to play in his home country.

Our Seattle Kraken vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction
As it stands, this game could be one of the best NHL Global Series games this season, but it will depend on both teams keeping an effective offense. That said, it makes sense to expect the Hurricanes to take the puck initiative, as they currently have a more solid offensive line than the Kraken.
In conclusion, this will be a must-win for the Seattle Kraken to remain competitive in the Pacific Division, as they are currently out of the playoff zone. However, beating the Hurricanes won’t be easy, so the pick for the Carolina Hurricanes – Seattle Kraken is: SEA Kraken Total Goals – Over 2.5!
