Seattle Kraken vs Philadelphia Flyers prediction

I'm not running to the window to back the Kraken or Flyers, two teams piling up the losses over the last few weeks. With that said, getting the Flyers at home in the underdog role seems like the play. One, you have to give the edge to the home team when two struggling teams are clashing. Also, the Flayers are coming off a couple of nice wins over the Panthers and Jets, which should have some sort of carry over entering this contest. The Seattle Kraken have lost their last 4 road games and were just shutout by the Sharks. Give me the Flyers and more favorable price.
