Kraken in desperate need of a superstar
Among the teams that are in the thick of the playoff race, one team is putting itself in position for the postseason, despite not having a big-name star.
The Seattle Kraken are currently hanging onto the second Wild Card spot in the Western Conference. Yet, they are doing it without a marquee player who is feared by opponents. Forward Jordan Eberle has been having a good year, as has the likes of Matty Beniers and Chandler Stephenson, but the team has relied on great goaltending and solid defense to win.
While that might be enough to get them to the postseason, Seattle needs a little bit more firepower upfront if they want to compete with the upper echelon of the West.
Trade Deadline Primer: Seattle Kraken
With the Olympic break now over, the trade deadline is almost a week away. Where does each team stand, and what moves should they be looking to make? We continue our look around the league with teams in the fight for a playoff spot, next up are the Kraken.
Coming into the season, expectations weren’t particularly high for Seattle. They were coming off missing the playoffs and didn’t do much to shake up their roster. However, a significant improvement defensively under new head coach Lane Lambert has them squarely in the race for a playoff spot. But with some prominent veterans on expiring contracts, will they run the risk of letting them walk in free agency to bolster their playoff hopes or weaken those postseason odds to ensure they get a good return for some of those players?

It’s been a nice break, but the Seattle Kraken have wrapped up a week of practice and are flying to Dallas on Monday to prepare for their first game since a critical 4-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Feb. 4. That victory put Seattle into third place in the Pacific Division heading into the break. Now, with the team marching toward a return to game action at the Stars on Wednesday, our coverage here at Sound Of Hockey is ramping back up as well.
The last week had almost “mini training camp” vibes, as Seattle’s players came back together at Kraken Community Iceplex and worked their way back toward game shape after nearly three weeks off. Those vibes, by the way, are very good, with the team in a playoff position and saying all the right things about being ready to compete for Seattle’s second postseason berth in franchise history.
