Analyzing past performances, the Seattle Kraken have been on a winning streak. In their last three games, they've shown resilience and skill.

Offensively, they were efficient with a shooting percentage of 10 percent despite having fewer shots than Calgary.
The game before that saw them triumph over Anaheim Ducks with an impressive shooting percentage of 14 percent. The team's ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities was evident as they scored three goals from just 22 shots.
