San Jose Sharks @ Seattle Kraken Preview

The San Jose Sharks (15-32-6) head to Seattle to face the Kraken (22-27-3) in a Pacific Division clash. The Sharks are coming off a morale-boosting 2-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins, snapping a six-game losing streak. Rookie Macklin Celebrini continues to impress, leading the Sharks with 36 points in 41 games. Goalie Yaroslav Askarov was instrumental in their recent win, making 32 saves and stopping a penalty shot.

On the other hand, the Kraken are looking to bounce back after a disappointing 6-4 loss to the Anaheim Ducks. Seattle has struggled defensively, with goaltender Philipp Grubauer placed on waivers after a tough season. Joey Daccord, who has been solid with a 2.45 GAA and .917 save percentage, is expected to start in net. Forward Eeli Tolvanen has been a bright spot for the Kraken, scoring three goals in his last three games.

The Sharks secured an 8-5 victory on November 29 and followed it up with a 4-2 win on November 30.

Pick: San Jose Sharks +1.5 (-155) via BetMGM

The Sharks have shown they can exploit Seattle's defensive vulnerabilities, winning both matchups this season. With the Kraken's goaltending situation in flux and San Jose gaining confidence after their recent win, taking the Sharks on the spread at +1.5 offers value. Additionally, Macklin Celebrini's offensive prowess and Yaroslav Askarov's solid goaltending could keep this game close.

Top Player Prop Picks

Macklin Celebrini Over 0.5 Points

Celebrini has been a standout for the Sharks, leading all rookies in goals and ranking second in points. With Seattle's defensive struggles, he is well-positioned to contribute offensively.

Eeli Tolvanen Anytime Goal Scorer

Tolvanen has scored in three consecutive games and is a key offensive weapon for the Kraken. His recent form makes him a strong candidate to find the back of the net again.

Joey Daccord Over 27.5 Saves

With the Sharks averaging 26.75 shots per game, Daccord is likely to face significant action in net. His solid save percentage this season suggests he can surpass this line.
