Minnesota Wild vs Seattle Kraken Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/08/25

The Minnesota Wild face the Seattle Kraken on Monday night in the NHL. These Western Conference teams are at very different spots in the standings, but neither has won a ton in recent play. How will this one shape up? Here is a Wild vs Kraken prediction.

Following an extremely impressive run of 12-1-2 for the Wild, they have cooled off and are 1-2-1 in their last 4 games. However, I believe this game presents major bounce-back potential. The aforementioned impressive streak they just went on was not a fluke, as the Wild are an impressive team. Led by the elite Kirill Kaprizov, they are a deep team with talent throughout and boast an excellent mix of young and old. Especially in net, as their duo of Filip Gustavsson and Jesper Wallstedt are 27 and 23 years old, respectively, and have shown to be threatening netminders this season. The Kraken roster does not show much in terms of depth or elite talent, and their record reflects that. At 11-9-6, they are near the depths of the league — and they are 0-4-1 in their last 5 games while being outscored 21-11. Even on home ice, I don’t expect much from them. Minnesota has much more to play for, as points within a challenging Central Division are imperative. For this Wild vs Kraken prediction, I’m going with Minnesota.
