The 2025-26 NHL regular season is winding down, and tonight’s matchup between the Seattle Kraken and the Winnipeg Jets at Canada Life Centre is a crucial game for both squads. Whether you are rooting for the deep blue of the Kraken or the high-flying Jets, you won’t want to miss the action on the ice tonight.
Where to Watch the Seattle Kraken vs. Winnipeg Jets on TV and Streaming
Puck drop is scheduled for Monday, April 6, 2026, at 7:30 PM EDT (4:30 PM PDT / 6:30 PM CDT).
In the USA: Fans in the Seattle broadcast market can watch the game locally on the Kraken Hockey Network (KHN) or stream it via Prime Video. For viewers outside of the Kraken home market, the game is available nationally on ESPN+.
In Canada: The game will be broadcast strictly and exclusively nationwide on Prime Video. No regional sports network will carry the game within Canada.
If you are outside of these local markets, you can stream the game on ESPN+ in the United States or Sportsnet+ in Canada.
Understanding NHL Regional Blackouts
For cord-cutters and streaming fans, NHL blackouts can be a confusing hurdle. However, tonight’s game is straightforward, depending on which side of the border you are on.
Because Prime Video holds the strict national rights for this game in Canada, there are no regional blackouts within Canada for this specific matchup. Any Prime Video subscriber coast-to-coast can stream the game freely.
In the United States, traditional regional restrictions still apply. If you live within the geographical territory of the Seattle Kraken, you must watch the game on your local carrier (KHN or Prime Video local) or your ESPN+ feed will be blacked out to protect local television contracts. If you live outside of Washington state, however, your national ESPN+ stream will work perfectly.
2025-26 Season Records, Leading Scorers, and Injuries
The Seattle Kraken roll into Winnipeg with a 32-32-11 record (75 points), looking to bounce back after a tough 4-2 defeat to the Chicago Blackhawks. The team’s offense is being driven by veteran captain Jordan Eberle, who leads the squad with 52 points (24 goals, 28 assists), alongside Matty Beniers with 46 points. The Kraken have struggled with consistency, partly due to the absence of key defenseman Vince Dunn, who has missed significant time with upper-body injuries.
Meanwhile, the Winnipeg Jets sit at 33-31-12 (78 points) and are riding a wave of momentum following a two-game winning streak. Mark Scheifele is having a monster year, leading the team with a staggering 92 points (34 goals, 58 assists). Sharpshooter Kyle Connor isn’t far behind with 85 points. The Jets are largely healthy right now, giving them a distinct advantage as they close out the season on home ice.
Game Score Prediction and Betting Breakdown
Betting odds are Winnipeg -166 with the Over/Under set at 5.5. From my personal insight, I love the Jets in this spot. Playing on home ice at the Canada Life Centre, Winnipeg has all the momentum with their win streak, while Seattle’s offense has struggled mightily to find the back of the net on the road. Given Scheifele’s red-hot scoring touch, I’m predicting a 4-2 Winnipeg victory. That means betting the over 5.5 is a smart play tonight, and laying the juice on the -166 moneyline offers solid value for a Jets team finding its stride at the right time.
