Analyzing Wednesday’s Seattle Kraken at Minnesota Wild odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

Additionally, I value Boldy skating with pass-first linemates Gustav Nyquist and Marco Rossi and being the No. 1 shooter on the man advantage with Kirill Kaprizov out of action. Plus, Boldly paces the Wild in both shots (10.19) and attempts (20.25) per 60 minutes and ranks in the 99th percentile of forwards in shots on goal.

The Kraken and the Blackhawks meet in Chicago! These two teams have had trouble playing well consistently this season. The Kraken has been slightly better, but this game will be a big test for both to at least try and get back on track.

The Blackhawks were outscored 4-0 in the second period, but the Kraken weren’t done. Their fifth goal came from another slot breakdown. On the sixth goal, Frank Nazar’s turnover resulted in another off-man-rush goal.
