Interesting action is set for the NHL on Oct 23, as the Winnipeg Jets bid to maintain their winning sequence when they host the Seattle Kraken.
The Jets have made an incredible start to the new season, and they sit second in the Central Division after registering wins in their last four games.
The Seattle Kraken also sit high in the Pacific Division after going 3-2-2 at the start of the campaign. However, they will need to respond following a recent defeat against the Washington Capitals.

There is huge excitement surrounding the Winnipeg Jets this season, and they have started the campaign in red-hot form.
They come into this round sitting second in the Central Division after going 5-1-0. Meanwhile, the Jets are in the best form of any side in the Western Conference after registering victories in their last five games.
They were last in action, battling to a 2-1 win over the Calgary Flames, with Jonathan Toews and Mark Scheifele scoring in the final period.
The Seattle Kraken could be a leading playoff contender in the Western Conference this season. They come into this game sitting third in the Pacific Division after going 3-2-2.
However, a return to form will be required this weekend after suffering defeats in their previous two games.
Their latest loss was a poor showing against the Washington Capitals, with the Kraken losing 4-1 on the road. Seattle's only goal in the heavy defeat was scored in the final period by Jaden Schwartz.
| TOTAL | Kraken | Jets | DRAWS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WINS | 12 | 2 | 10 | - |
| GOALS | 65 | 26 | 39 |
The Seattle Kraken have a poor record against the Jets in the NHL. That is reflected by the fact that they have lost 83% of their matchups against their opponents.
Meanwhile, the Kraken's losing run is a concern, especially against a Jets side that have been offensively strong in the opening weeks of the new season.
