Kraken vs. Rangers Prediction, Picks & Best Bets Today: Best NHL Bets Monday, Jan. 12
The Blueshirts stunk up the joint in their last game, and my Kraken vs. Rangers prediction considers whether they can rebound tonight at Madison Square Garden (7 p.m. ET, NHL Network).
Despite losing 10-2 on Saturday in Boston, the Rangers are the -144 home betting favorite to secure just their second win in an eight-game stretch. Along with a game prediction as part of the NHL best bets below, I'm featuring Artemi Panarin, one of the Rangers' only offensive bright spots during the current rotten patch.

💰 Kraken vs. Rangers best bet: Kraken ML (+120) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Check out all of our NHL analysis and expert predictions this season.
I don't think the Rangers have enough character or motivation among the current leadership group to rebound confidently from Saturday's putrid performance in Beantown.
It doesn't help that the Blueshirts have the second-worst home record (5-11-4) and have lost six of the previous seven games. Seattle, meanwhile, won five of the last six road games, only allowing more than two goals twice.
The plus-money odds at the best sports betting sites represent the cherry on top.
Score prediction: Kraken 4, Rangers 2
🔥 Best Kraken vs. Rangers prop bet: Artemi Panarin Over 0.5 assists (-120) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Panarin has notched nine helpers in his current six-game assist streak, which includes three two-assist outings. He's about the only offensive bright spot for the struggling Rangers. There's no need to go into his poor defensive work.
The Breadman tallied four helpers in the previous four meetings against the Kraken and seven in the last 10. If the Rangers score, Panarin will likely be in on it, as he scored or assisted on 10 of the Rangers' 16 goals in the last five games.
