The Seattle Kraken and Colorado Avalanche are on a three-game losing run when they play on Tuesday night in Colorado. The 5-7-1 Kraken aim to escape their skid after losing 2-0 to the Boston Bruins, their fourth loss in five games. Their offence has struggled, scoring less in two straight matches. Despite their offensive struggles, Seattle ranks 7th in goals allowed per game and 9th in save percentage.
However, the Avalanche are 5-7 and lost 5-2 to the Nashville Predators last time out. Colorado has a weak defence, ranking lowest in the NHL in goals allowed per game and below 70% on the penalty kill18. They rank 12th in goals per game and second in power play.
Considering both teams’ current performances and records, the Seattle Kraken may have a slight defensive advantage. However, this could lead to a close game, and the Kraken are likely to come out on top.
