Lane Lambert’s Seattle Kraken will be hopeful of a return to form in the NHL this Thursday after losing their last two games. Last time out, Seattle were punished for a poor defensive showing, losing 3-0 on the road against the Edmonton Oilers.
That defeat leaves the Kraken sitting sixth in the Pacific Division, while they have gone 3-5-2 across their last ten. Home advantage should play to their strengths after producing a winning record at the Climate Pledge Arena.

The Utah Mammoth have enjoyed a progressive campaign under head coach Andre Tourigny, and their spot in the post-season could be assured over the next seven days.
Utah have shown reliable recent form after winning four of their last ten, while they rank among the best defensive teams in the Central Division after allowing 212 goals. The Mammoth flexed their offensive muscles last time out, recording a 6-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings. Alexander Kerfoot scored twice in the success.

Seattle Kraken vs. Utah Mammoth Pick
The Mammoth bring the more consistent recent form to the table this Thursday, and that could ultimately be crucial against a rival that has suffered defeats in each of their last two games.
