Tonight, the San Jose Sharks hit the road for a one-game trip against the Seattle Kraken. Welcome back to NHL Predictions! Today, like every day, Last Word on Hockey looks at the games happening and gives our predictions for each.

Kraken goalie Joey Daccord, in his 100th career NHL game, stopped the first 20 shots he faced but eventually ceded some goals in a loss to a No. 1 overall Washington Capitals team

Washington Capitals defeated the Seattle Kraken and despite the loss, Joey Daccord sent out a bold statement about Alex Ovechkin's team in the 2024-25 NHL season.

Seattle Kraken goaltender Joey Daccord played in his 100th NHL game, starting in net for the 31st time this season. Compared to other goalies, 100 is not that many.

These are my three favorite NHL props for Wednesday, January 30. If there is a team to fade tonight, it’s the Philadelphia Flyers. They just wrapped up a home-and-home with the Devils last night in a 5-0 loss where first-liner Owen Tippett exited. It will be Ivan Fedotov in net, which is an advantage for the red-hot New York Islanders.

Daccord is expected to start on the road Thursday against Winnipeg, per the NHL media site. Daccord has a 14-9-2 record, 2.47 GAA and .914 save percentage in 27 appearances in 2024-25. He stopped 31 of 33 shots en route 4-2 victory over Pittsburgh in his last start Tuesday.

SEATTLE -- Joey Daccord made 28 saves for the Seattle Kraken, who cruised past the Pittsburgh Penguins for a 4-1 win at Climate Pledge Arena on Saturday. Chandler Stephenson and Jared McCann each had two assists for the Kraken (22-25-3), who have won three of their past four.

Take the San Jose Sharks moneyline for tonight's best bet against the Seattle Kraken who have been struggling at home.

Notable: Seattle Kraken goaltender Joey Daccord was the star of the third period, rewarded for his efforts when Jaden Schwartz completed a hat trick with an empty netter. That was, improbably, the Kraken’s first shot on goal of the period, and it came with 1:10 remaining.

The Capitals are ramping up efforts to extend Logan Thompson while the goaltending situation in Carolina has gotten less dire.
