In a Pacific Division matchup, the Seattle Kraken hope to end a three-game losing skid against the Calgary Flames on Thursday at Scotiabank Saddledome.
Last week, Seattle put a stop to a six-game losing run with a 3-2 overtime victory against the Los Angeles Kings. The team finally produced a well-balanced performance on both ends of the ice. Yet, they now find themselves on another losing streak.
The Kraken are mainly suffering from a lack of goals, as they have the league’s poorest offensive record. Lane Lambert’s team is averaging only 2.48 goals a night in 2025-26. On Thursday, Seattle will meet the second-lowest scorers in the NHL.
The Flames are posting 2.50 goals per game and remain near the bottom of the Western Conference despite a recent upturn in form. Ryan Huska’s men have won four of their last six games. Eight of Calgary’s 13 wins this season have come since Nov. 19, giving the team hope that they can get back into the postseason race.
Special teams could play a vital role in deciding the winner between these two on Thursday. The Kraken have the league’s worst penalty kill at 67.8 percent, and their chances for success would greatly improve if they can do a better job in these situations. At the same time, Calgary has the worst power play at 13.6 percent. Huska’s side would be much more competitive if it began to find consistent success with the man advantage.

Our Calgary Flames vs Seattle Kraken Prediction
The two teams appear to be heading in different directions, and the absence of Brandon Montour may boost Calgary’s chances in Thursday’s meeting. Seattle lost the versatile defenseman to injury during Tuesday’s loss to the Colorado Avalanche.
Seattle has gone 1-8-1 over its last 10 games, giving up three or more goals eight times during that span. The Flames aren’t a prolific side, but they have racked up 15 goals over their last four outings, and their miserable power play may finally get some joy on Thursday night against the worst penalty kill in the league.
Our prediction for Seattle Kraken vs. Calgary Flames: Flames to win race to 3 goals.
