The Detroit Red Wings (3-3) visit the Seattle Kraken (5-3) on Tuesday, October 20, 2026. Looking at the records, Seattle holds a slight edge with a better win percentage. The Kraken also have home-ice advantage, which often matters in hockey.
Betting lines show Detroit as the underdog. The Red Wings are +1.5 on the puck line at -265, meaning you’d need to risk $265 to win $100 if you back Detroit to lose by one goal or win outright. Seattle is -1.5 at +215, so a $100 bet wins $215 if the Kraken win by two or more goals.
Moneyline odds are close: Detroit is -105, Seattle -115. This suggests bookmakers see a tight game, with a slight lean toward Seattle winning straight up. The small difference means a moneyline bet on either team won’t yield big payouts but reflects a competitive matchup.
The total is set at 6.5 goals, with the under slightly favored at -115 versus the over at -105. This indicates a modest expectation for a moderately scoring game, with a slight edge to the under.
In summary, the Kraken are favored at home but not by a wide margin. If you want a safer play, a moneyline bet on Seattle or a Detroit puck line bet could work. For more risk and reward, Seattle on the -1.5 spread is tempting. Keep an eye on total goals—it’s likely to be a game with around six to seven combined goals.
