Both of these teams lost last night by identical scores. For lowly Columbus it was business as usual, but for the Kraken (and for me) it was a surprising result. Look for Seattle to take it to Columbus tonight. The Blue Jackets are horrible on the road and equally bad in back to back appearances. The Kraken have a winning record in the same situation. This game pits the Krakens' fine 4th ranked offense against a very poor Jackets' defense. The Jackets' goaltender Merzlikens has been relegated to a back up role due to poor play. The Kraken will also start a back-up, but Grubauer has been sharp in relief lately. Take the Kraken to bounce back and win on the puck line tonight at - 1 1/2
