The NHL schedule will offer one of the least attractive games in the league as Seattle Kraken and Pittsburgh Penguins will face next Saturday at 03:00 pm CST. This clash will be a must-win for both teams; however, the result won’t generate any impact on their current positions within the standings due to the very bad performance both teams had throughout the season.
With that in mind, it must be noted that Seattle Kraken recently lost a little streak of 2 victories in a row after their most recent loss against Washington Capitals (0-3), a result that was predictable when taking into consideration that the Kraken is currently one of the worst defensive lines in the Western Conference with 157 conceded goals. Nonetheless, they normally get positive results against teams like the Penguins, so they still have little chances of getting into the playoffs’ spots.
Meanwhile, Pittsburgh Penguins are also one of the worst teams in the league, so even when they managed to get some positive results during the last 2 months, they still remark as the worst defensive in the Eastern Conference after conceding 185 goals this season. That very bad streak explains the terrible results they recently collect against teams like Anaheim Ducks, so it makes sense not to have the Penguins as the favorites to win this game.
