This is a 10* NON-CONFERENCE TOTAL OF THE YEAR on the OVER Florida/Kraken.

I expect little defense to be played here between 28-8-5 Florida and 12-24-4 Seattle.

Off a tough 2-1 shootout win over the Canucks, we can expect the Panthers to turn up the pressure here against the league's worst defense. Note that Florida has still scored three or more goals in eight of its last ten. They're just a mediocre 13th on the defensive end though.

The Kraken lost 5-0 to the Blues in their most recenty matchup. Note that they've seen the total go OVER in two of their last three after a shutout home loss in their last outing.

I expect Seattle to find the back of the net today, but I can't lay the huge road chalk and I'm avoiding the puckline as well.

In a wide-open contest, look for this one to fly OVER sooner, rather than later.

Good luck, NP
