The Kraken compete in the National Hockey League (NHL) as a member of the Pacific Division in the Western Conference and began play seattle kraken the league's 2021–22 season. They play their home games at Climate Pledge Arena. In December 2018, the NHL approved a proposal by Seattle Hockey Partners to grant an expansion franchise to the city of Seattle.

In July 2020, the Kraken's name and branding were revealed. [4] The Kraken are the first professional hockey team to play in Seattle since the Seattle Totems of the Western Hockey League played their last game in 1975, and the first Seattle hockey team to compete for the Stanley Cup since the Seattle Metropolitans, who won the cup in 1917 and folded in 1924.

As a result, the Arizona Coyotes were to be shifted from the Pacific Division to the Central Division to balance out the four divisions at eight teams each. The organization hired Ron Francis as their general manager to initiate operations for the team. [6] On July 23, 2020, the franchise announced their team name, the Seattle Kraken, as well as their team colors, branding, and home jersey. [7] The team's name comes from the mythical kraken of Scandinavian folklore and its resemblance to the native giant Pacific octopus, which is found in the waters of the Puget Sound, near Seattle.

[8] On April 30, 2021, the franchise paid the final installment of the $650 seattle kraken expansion fee, making the Seattle Kraken the 32nd team of seattle kraken NHL. [9] [10] First season [ edit ] Main article: 2021–22 Seattle Kraken season On June 24, 2021, the organization hired Dave Hakstol as seattle kraken inaugural head coach. [11] An expansion draft was held on July 21, 2021, in a similar manner to a previous expansion draft held in 2017 for the Vegas Golden Knights, who were themselves exempt from the 2021 expansion draft.

[12] [13] [14] During the 2021 preseason, the Kraken played their three home games in the home arenas of three Seattle kraken state Western Hockey League teams, the Spokane Chiefs, Everett Silvertips, and Seattle Thunderbirds.

On October 11, the Kraken named Mark Giordano the team's first captain. [15] They played their first regular season game on October 12, 2021, a 4–3 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights. Ryan Donato scored the team's first goal. The Kraken's first win came in their second game on October 14, when they defeated the Nashville Predators 4–3. [16] Giordano would go on to play his 1,000th career NHL game in a Kraken sweater on March 5, 2022, the first player to accomplish the feat.

He would subsequently be traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs days later. Arena [ edit ] The team plays home games at Climate Pledge Arena. [17] [18] The arena, at Seattle Center, is a $930 million redevelopment of the former KeyArena and Seattle Center Coliseum.

Amazon.com bought the naming rights to Seattle kraken Pledge Arena and chose to name the venue after its environmental goals. [19] The Kraken Community Iceplex in Northgate serves as the team's training facility The team's primary practice facility, named the Kraken Community Iceplex, is located at Northgate Station (formerly Northgate Mall) and opened in September 2021.

The facility has three rinks and is open to the public. [20] The Kraken's three home preseason games prior to the 2021–22 season were held at Spokane Arena, Angel of the Winds Arena in Seattle kraken, and the accesso ShoWare Center in Kent, which are all home to Western Hockey League (WHL) teams. Tickets were sold by the host WHL teams. [21] The Kraken played their first home game at Climate Pledge Arena on October 23, 2021, a 4–2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks. Vince Dunn scored the first goal in the arena's history for Seattle.

[22] They won their first game in the arena on October 26, 2021, a 5-1 victory against the Montreal Canadiens.

{INSERTKEYS} [23] Their first shutout win at home was a 3–0 victory over the San Jose Sharks on April 29, 2022, the final home game of the inaugural season. [24] In-arena entertainment [ edit ] The Kraken use the horn from the MV Hyak ferry boat as their goal horn. At the first two home games, the Hyak's horn was not yet functional, so the team played a recording of it.

[25] The team plays the Nirvana song " Lithium" after every Kraken goal at home. [26] After their first win at home against the Montreal Canadiens on October 26, the Kraken featured a new postgame tradition during the " Three Stars of the Game" ceremony. Instead of the honored players tossing conventional souvenir pucks or sticks to the fans, they threw a plush stuffed toy sockeye salmon into the crowd to mimic Seattle's Pike Place Market fish toss and what the Northwest wild-caught salmon represents to the state of Washington.

[27] Rod Masters, the organist from the 1977 film Slap Shot, became the organist for the Kraken starting with the team's January 1, 2022 home game. As Climate Pledge Arena does not have an organ, Masters plays music using electronic keyboards. [28] Broadcasting [ edit ] Radio [ edit ] Everett Fitzhugh serves as the team's primary radio play-by-play announcer.

Fitzhugh had previously done play-by-play for the ECHL's Cincinnati Cyclones. He is the first full-time play-by-play announcer of African-American heritage in NHL history. [29] [30] Former NHL player and Vancouver Canucks broadcaster Dave Tomlinson serves as Fitzhugh's color analyst. [31] Fitzhugh tested positive for COVID-19 prior to the Kraken's first regular-season road trip; on radio broadcasts, TV announcer John Forslund and veteran KJR broadcaster Ian Furness filled in on play-by-play duties.

[32] Kraken games are broadcast on 950 KJR with some games on 96.5 KJAQ. [33] [34] Other stations on the "Kraken Audio Network" include 1450 KONP in Port Angeles [35] and KALE in Richland, Washington. Television [ edit ] Kraken games are broadcast regionally on Root Sports Northwest for the team's first five seasons. Former Hartford Whalers and Carolina Hurricanes broadcaster John Forslund serves as the team's television play-by-play announcer.

[30] [36] J. T. Brown is the television analyst. [37] Alison Lukan, who normally serves as a studio analyst for Root Sports Northwest, joined Forslund in the TV broadcast booth in March 2022 while Brown was in COVID-19 protocols. [38] The telecast for the Kraken's February 17, 2022 game against the Winnipeg Jets had Fitzhugh on play-by-play and Brown on color commentary, comprising the first all-Black broadcast booth in NHL history.

[39] Minor league affiliates [ edit ] The Coachella Valley Firebirds, the American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate of the Kraken, are based in Thousand Palms, California.

[40] Due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and delays in building Acrisure Arena, the Firebirds will begin play in the 2022–23 season. [41] Acrisure Arena is expected to be ready for hockey in December 2022, so some Firebirds home games early in the 2022–23 season will be played at Climate Pledge Arena.

[42] The Charlotte Checkers, the primary AHL affiliate of the Florida Panthers, also served as the AHL affiliate for the Kraken during the 2021–22 season due to the delay in the Kraken's AHL team. The Checkers, an independently owned AHL team, had been the affiliate of the Carolina Hurricanes while the Kraken's general manager Ron Francis was working for the Hurricanes.

Some say we know more about the cosmos than we do our own waters.

Maybe that's what draws us to the sea—the vast expanse, the impermeable deep. The uncharted has long inspired generations of folklore. In Seattle, we welcome voyagers. Our port city brings legends from all over the world. We cross boundless oceans and dense wilderness, finding our beasts along the way.

These legends are home to this rugged coastal wonderland with a name etched on Lord Stanley. Now, we breathe new life into a legend. An ancient and powerful force reawakens in the heart of the great Pacific Northwest.

We will wear the 'S' in honor of our champion predecessors, seattle kraken we will have a name that incarnates the might of the sea. The NHL's 32nd Club. Given life by 32,000 fans. Our City Our maritime city with a proud history of adventure is deserving of a hockey club as untamed as the sea herself. The Kraken represents the fiercest beast in all the world. Too large and indomitable to be contained by man (or finned mammal).

It instills one message in all opponents whether in our waters, or theirs… Abandon all hope. Our Sound The seattle kraken octopus on planet Earth lives right here seattle kraken Puget Sound.

The Giant Pacific Octopus lurks in the deep around Seattle. According to Tacoma legend, they inhabit the ruins of collapsed bridge "Galloping Gertie" with the infamous "King Octopus." National Geographic notes the biggest on record at 30 ft wide and over 600 lbs. If you encountered that in the depths of our Sound, seattle kraken tell tales of one thing…You just saw the Kraken. Our Fans We met deposit day with 32,000 passionate fans and scores of prospective team names.

One in particular emerged quickly as the frontrunner. Two years later, and that same name still carries the conversation. 215,000 fan votes, 50+ fan forums & speaking engagements and over 12 months of social media listening have supported this phenomenon— Seattle is the Kraken.

The Shape of Our History Our history seattle kraken the great ice game goes as deep as Puget Sound. The Seattle Metropolitans were the first American club to hoist the Stanley Cup. They are an eternal part of our city's history and we pay tribute to them by wearing the 'S.' We will aspire to bring the Cup back to Seattle in their honor.

Seattle kraken from the Sea Seattle kraken is a city built by the sea. Our forebearers' hands cracked in the cold, salty air as they reeled in their lines and wrought their ships.

The clean bevel of a freshly carved vessel is a reminder of where we come from. A noble city built on the water by bold and hardened adventurers. Gameday Our arena will be feared. An iconic roof standing nobly against the Olympic Mountains, yet beneath awaits danger…The subterranean lair of the Seattle Kraken.

Our lair will be a hostile venue for opposing teams and will deliver the best home ice advantage in the league. Our city will show up strong and release their inner beasts for every game. With dynamic sightlines and a steep bowl, our fans will be on top of the ice.

Unique game presentation will dimension the Kraken brand from dueling scoreboards to a distinctive live organ. On ice imaging will transition elegance to mayhem. Our music will be crafted by KEXP, and ocean fog will flow through the seattle kraken as our players take the ice.

The sounds of our city and epic tales of the sea will bring the legend of the Kraken to life.

Welcome home, Seattle hockey fans. It is with pride that we will wear the 'S' inside of this seattle kraken from opening day to the end of time.
