Expected score: Seattle Kraken 4-3 Calgary Flames
Seattle Kraken host Calgary Flames on Thursday night in an NHL matchup that pits a resurgent home side against visitors struggling to find consistency. The Kraken sit seventh in the standings with 17 points from 11 games, while Calgary occupies 11th with 12 points from 14 matches. This is a chance for Seattle to build on recent momentum and extend their advantage over a Flames team that has stumbled badly of late.
Team form
Seattle Kraken
Seattle's last five games tell a mixed but ultimately encouraging story. They opened that stretch with a heavy 3-8 loss to Florida, but bounced back impressively with wins over Washington (5-3) and Detroit (6-3). A 2-6 home defeat to Vegas interrupted the run, yet the Kraken closed that sequence with a commanding 6-1 victory over Calgary just three weeks ago. Across those five outings, Seattle scored 22 goals and conceded 21, averaging 4.4 and 4.2 per game respectively. The offence has shown real teeth when firing on all cylinders.
Calgary Flames
Calgary's form has been far more troubling. Over the same five-game window, the Flames managed only 12 goals while surrendering 25—a 2.4 and 5.0 per-game average that reflects a defence in serious distress. They did claim one win, a 4-2 success at Anaheim, but losses to Vegas (2-6), Colorado (3-7), and a second defeat to Anaheim (2-4) have left them looking fragile. Most recently, they fell 2-6 to Vegas, and that 6-1 hammering by Seattle three weeks back shows the gulf in current form between these two sides.
Head-to-head
This is the second meeting of the season between these teams. Seattle dominated the first encounter on October 5, winning 6-1 at home—a result that underscores the Kraken's attacking prowess and Calgary's defensive vulnerabilities.
Key factors
Seattle's scoring depth has been the story of their recent run. They have posted 4.4 goals per game over five outings and showed they can dismantle Calgary convincingly. Calgary's defence remains the critical issue; conceding 5.0 per game is unsustainable, and facing a Kraken side that has proven it can exploit such weaknesses is a daunting proposition. The Flames' 2.4 goals per game also suggests they will struggle to keep pace if Seattle gets going. Home ice advantage for the Kraken, combined with their superior recent form and standing, tilts the balance decisively.
Prediction
Seattle comes into this fixture as a clear favourite. They hold the better record, have won the season series, and have demonstrated far greater offensive consistency and defensive solidity. Calgary's alarming defensive record—25 goals conceded in five games—makes them vulnerable to a Kraken team that has shown it can score in bunches. The Flames' lack of scoring punch (2.4 per game) further limits their ability to mount a comeback if Seattle builds an early lead. All indicators point to a home victory.
Back Seattle Kraken to win. The Kraken should prove too strong for a Calgary side in disarray. Expect an entertaining, high-scoring affair that favours the hosts.
