Kraken vs Avalanche Pickswise Expert Predictions

Money Line Pick
SEA Kraken Win(+155)

The Seattle Kraken and Colorado Avalanche hit the ice for the last game of the 2025-2026 NHL regular season on Thursday. The Kraken look for one last piece of pride, while the Avalanche gear up for a Stanley Cup run. Here is our Kraken vs. Avalanche prediction.

The Avalanche will very likely be sitting some key players to rest for a playoff run that the team hopes goes the distance. In their previous game, Nazem Kadri, Devon Towes, Brock Nelson and Josh Manson did not suit up. Regardless of who is in the lineup for Colorado, I don’t expect them to show maximum effort in a meaningless game.

As for Seattle, they will be icing their full roster, one that was in the playoff hunt until just 4 days ago. This is a chance for them to empty the tank and produce one last prideful effort in this season. This is Seattle’s second game in as many nights, but ending the season on a 3-game losing streak is not something the organization would be pleased with. For our Kraken vs. Avalanche prediction, take Seattle on the money line.
