Seattle Kraken vs Los Angeles Kings Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/23/25

The Seattle Kraken are looking to finish off a California swing with a perfect 3-for-3 mark. It is 2-1-0 on the current road trip overall, which wraps up in Los Angeles on Tuesday night. The Kraken doubled up the San Jose Sharks at SAP Center on Saturday night behind Joey Daccord, while Philipp Grubauer frustrated the Anaheim Ducks at Honda Center on Monday night — winning 3-1. If you bet the Kraken in both games, you would be up +275! Seattle is expected to turn back to Daccord in net for this one. He started in the 3-2 overtime win over the Kings at Climate Pledge Arena in the most recent H2H meeting on Dec. 10, as Seattle won on home ice as a moderate underdog (+130).

The Kings have really struggled to score goals lately; that continued in Monday night’s 3-1 loss on home ice against the Columbus Blue Jackets. L.A. provided little offensive support for Anton Forsberg, who has actually been doing a good job in between the pipes lately — holding down the fort while starting goalie Darcy Kuemper is on the shelf with an upper-body injury. The Kings have scored just 9 total goals in the past 6 games, or 1.5 per contest. That includes a 3-2 OT loss in Seattle, as Daccord bested Forsberg. Let’s back the Kraken as live ‘dogs on the road before the teams depart for the holiday break.
