Dallas Stars vs Seattle Kraken Best Bet: Wednesday, May 4th

The Seattle Kraken pulled off a big Game 1 upset in Dallas to begin their second-round Stanley Cup Playoff series with the Dallas Stars. The pressure is on Dallas to level the series at a win apiece on Wednesday night on home ice while the Kraken attempt to take a 2 – 0 lead back home for Games 3 and 4. Our resident pucks expert Ej Garr had a letdown with the Rangers but in classic Ej form, he plans on making it up and then some!

Dallas Stars vs Seattle Kraken Preview

May 5, 02:35 (UK time)

Well, my Blue Shirts let me down against the Devils, and as always, I apologize for the missed tip. Let’s make it up with a little plus-money offer on Wednesday, and maybe I will make it a pair of bets with the value behind them!

Pinnacle is offering a 2.12 line on the Over 5.5 goals for Game 2 in Dallas, and after seeing how easy both teams made scoring look on Monday, that line is a surprise to me. At the same token, I am also staring at the straight 6 that features odds at 2.47, and if you know anything about me from my time here, I usually shoot for the big value in those spots

In this case, we don’t need to go too over the top, although if you do take that Over 6 when it is 3 – 3 going to overtime again, you will love me for leading you into it, right? Game 1 was a wild affair, as the Kraken jumped out to a 4 – 2 first-period lead, and yet the game went to overtime at 4 – 4 before the Kraken sealed the win in the extra frame.

Being the Mayor of Value City, however, makes me want to give you all an offer with the extreme value behind the bet, so let’s do this. I don’t know if they can recreate that first-period madness again, but the odds I see at 3.00 for Both Teams to Score in the opening frame are more than tempting. We don’t even need them to go nuts either, as a 1 – 1 before the end of 20 minutes is certainly worth all of the value behind that bet.

We’re here to make money, right? Well, I give you a pair of plus-money offers to soak in for Wednesday’s tilt in Dallas because I CAN!! Does anyone recall the last three meetings of the regular season between these two organizations? They all happened back in March, and every game produced no less than seven goals, making it four meetings in a row now with Game 1 in the books.

Who are we to think it won’t happen tonight? Give me a 2 – 1 first period and a 4 – 3 game, and then it’s time to party!
