Flyers vs Kraken Prediction & Odds - 3/8/2025

The Philadelphia Flyers host the Seattle Kraken in what could be a pivotal matchup for both teams' playoff hopes, with each squad desperate to shake off recent losses - the Flyers coming off a tough 6-3 defeat to the Flames while Seattle dropped their last game 4-3 to the Wild.

The goaltending battle between Philadelphia's Samuel Ersson (.892 save percentage) and Seattle's Joey Daccord (.909 save percentage) could prove decisive, especially considering the Flyers' power play struggles at home this season, converting just 15.85% of their chances.

The Wells Fargo Center crowd will watch their home team Flyers, who've managed 153 even-strength goals this season, take on an away team Kraken squad that's shown flashes of offensive prowess with their 10.9% shooting percentage.

Philadelphia Flyers vs. Seattle Kraken preview

The struggling Seattle Kraken head to the Wells Fargo Center looking to shake off a tough 4-3 loss to the Wild, while the Flyers aim to bounce back from their recent 6-3 stumble against the Flames.

Seattle's offense has been hit-or-miss this season, with netminder Joey Daccord's solid .909 save percentage keeping them competitive despite their defensive challenges.

The Flyers' Samuel Ersson has been a bright spot between the pipes, though Philly's power play needs a serious jumpstart - they're stuck near the bottom of the league with just 26 goals with the man advantage.

Keep an eye on the special teams battle - the Kraken's 18.45% power play efficiency could be the difference-maker against Philadelphia's penalty kill unit that's hovering around 79%.

Both teams have struggled with consistency this year, with the Flyers sitting at .500 and the Kraken just below that mark at .452.

The Wells Fargo Center crowd might give Philly the edge they need, but don't count out Seattle's ability to capitalize on their opponents' recent defensive lapses.
