In recent news, the Seattle Kraken hockey team has been making waves in the world of professional sports. The team, which began their season last fall, spent three days in the mountains bonding before their breakout season (The Columbian). Despite being a new team, the Kraken have already proven to be a formidable opponent. In their recent game against the Colorado Avalanche, Jordan Eberle scored a power-play goal in overtime, leading the Kraken to a 3-2 victory and tying up the series (USA Today).
However, the Kraken have faced some challenges, with player Jared McCann leaving a game due to injury (USA Today) and Morgan Geekie taking a brief hiatus to be with his newborn daughter (The Seattle Times). But the team remains strong, with head coach Dave Hakstol meticulously crafting their line combinations (Daily Faceoff).
While some speculate that the Kraken and other new teams like the New Jersey Devils may not survive long-term, experts argue that their success this season bodes well for the future (The Hockey News). Fans can tune in to watch the Kraken take on the Colorado Avalanche in game 4 of the playoffs on Monday (Sports Illustrated).
