Seattle has struggled with consistency, winning just 5 of their last 15 games while managing only 2.74 goals per game this season. The Kraken's road record (16-20) reflects their difficulties away from home, scoring just 2.56 goals per game on the road. Recent form shows concerning trends with losses to Nashville, Colorado, and St. Louis, though they did secure wins against Tampa Bay and Vancouver.

The team's inability to generate consistent scoring, particularly on the road, poses significant challenges against Edmonton's potent attack at Rogers Place.
