Seattle Kraken — forward shot volume

Calgary Flames have allowed 22.11 shots on goal per game to opposing forwards (+10.0% versus league). That opens a Seattle Kraken forward SOG search. Seattle Kraken have generated 17.56 through their forwards (-12.7% versus league), which describes their normal volume. The defensive allowance starts the player scan; the team’s prior shooting rate does not veto it. Calgary Flames have also allowed +21.1% more PP SOG than league; current PP1 or PP2 members have another possible shot route.

Jordan Eberle and Matty Beniers carry the largest prior share of this shot group. Ben Meyers and Shane Wright also have current lines and recorded five-on-five shots and attempts, so the shot case reaches beyond the primary names. Other players supplied 67% of the team's prior group SOG. Ben Meyers recorded 1.32 SOG and 2.49 attempts per qualified game at five-on-five; the current role has no established PP shot route. Shane Wright recorded 0.95 SOG and 1.91 attempts per qualified game at five-on-five; current PP2 membership adds a possible route, with 0.19 SOG and 0.47 attempts per game in prior power-play states. Attempts include shots that missed or were blocked; they are part of the same shot pool as SOG.

That makes their SOG markets the cleanest way to bet on the shots. They need to put pucks on net; they do not need to score.

Goalies / what could change

Calgary Flames: Devin Cooley is listed as unconfirmed. Seattle Kraken generated 28.1 goalie-faced SOG per game, while Calgary Flames allowed 29.1; that could create workload if the starter plays the full game. A goalie-saves target still needs confirmed participation and its own qualified workload case.

Seattle Kraken: Joey Daccord is listed as unconfirmed. The defense has faced shots, but this opponent has not generated matching shot volume consistently. A goalie-saves target still needs confirmed participation and its own qualified workload case.
