LiontipsSeattle vs Vegas. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (October 16, 2022).
Command Analysis
The previous NHL season was the first one for Seattle. The team finished in 15th place in the West and used the transwer window to get several strong players. Andre Burakovsky, Justin Schultz, and Martin Jones look the most interesting. In the preseason, the Kraken delivered solid results, and showed decent performance in the first games of the regular season as well. They lost to Anaheim in overtime (4:5) and then beat Los Angeles (4:1).
Vegas are on a five-game winning streak. They won the last three preseason games and celebrated success in the first games of the regular season. In the first match, the Golden Knights snatched a win by scoring the winning goal 30 seconds before the final siren. After that, the VGK got a narrow-margin win over Chicago at home (1:0).

Tip and bets
Vegas are the favorites. They are the stronger team and consistently deliver results in regulation time. But Seattle will play at home, where they looked great in the preseason. We think that the Kraken have a decent chance of winning this game, but we will hedge our bet with a zero handicap.
Our prediction - handicap (0) to Seattle
Seattle will have to play a very defensive game in order to withhold the VGK's offence. The hosts demonstrated solid defensive performance in recent games. Take the under.
Second bet - total under 6 goals
