Vince Dunn and Eeli Tolvanen each led the team in assists with 2 while Matty Beniers and Brandon Montour each led the team in shots on net in that game with 5.

The current betting odds have the Mammoth listed as a big favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Mammoth haven't looked great in their games this season with their 14-15-3 record overall which has them in the bottom half of their division in the West. They haven't looked that great on home ice either with their 7-5-1 home record this year. Meanwhile, the Kraken haven't looked good in their games this season with their 12-10-6 record overall which has them in the bottom half of their division in the West. They haven't been a great road team either with their 5-5-3 road record this year. The Kraken are off a win over the Kings in their last one and that win broke a losing streak they have been on, but the Kraken have also looked a lot better on home ice this year and haven't been playing well lately. They are 3-6-1 in their last 10 games and they look like they are going to have another year of struggles with one of the worst offenses in the NHL at the moment. The Mammoth haven't looked any better lately as they are off a 4-3 loss to the Panthers in their last one and are also 3-7-0 in their last 10 games. As bad as the Mammoth have been lately, they have gone on some runs this year, and their offense has still been really good with the number of goals they have been scoring. Neither team has looked lately, but the Kraken are off a win while the Mammoth are at home off a loss, and the Mammoth's better offense should give them the edge in this one. The best way to place a bet here is on the Mammoth to win this game and on the puckline.

“Our mindset was the same entering the final minute because we're in the same position we've been in a couple of times [lately], you know? And I thought our guys did a great job of executing what we needed to execute.” - Lane Lambert after his team’s win against the LA Kings in their game on Wednesday.

“Obviously, a tough pill to swallow, the way it happened. I think we showed a lot of character being down by two goals and coming back in the game and giving ourselves a chance. I think in the third period, we got in trouble, got in the (penalty) box. That's how they got their momentum.” - Andre Tourigny after his team’s loss against the Panthers in their game on Wednesday.
