Latest news and updates about the Kraken
The Edmonton Oilers pulled out a massive win on Saturday afternoon against the Anaheim Ducks, and last night they had a chance to keep the good times rolling against another divisional opponent. The Seattle Kraken still have their sights set on a Wildcard spot, while the Oilers still have theirs on the division lead. And…
For the first time this season, the Edmonton Oilers have won four consecutive games. On Tuesday evening, the Oilers played the second of four games at home, defeating the Seattle Kraken by a score of 3-0, their fifth shutout of the season. It was also the second time the Oilers have shut out the Kraken….
It’s Tuesday afternoon, and there’s a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today’s episode, the guys discussed the Oilers’ pending free agents, Evan Bouchard’s heater, previewed Tuesday’s matchup against the Kraken, and much more. We kicked off the Tuesday…
My first recollection of the Kraken came in the 1980s movie Clash of the Titans. The Kraken was a giant sea monster with a six-pack, no less. The movie was very popular due to its stop-motion visual effects. That doesn’t sound overly exciting in 2026, but in the early 1980s, it was a big deal….
The Edmonton Oilers will look to stretch a three-game winning streak to a four-game winning streak Tuesday night when the Seattle Kraken rolls into town. It’s a team the Oilers can’t take lightly as they fight for their playoff lives. Seattle Kraken @ Edmonton Oilers Date: Tuesday, March 31, 2026 Start Time: 7 p.m. MT…
With chaos brewing in the Pacific Division, the Edmonton Oilers seem relatively drama-free in comparison after three solid wins in a row. The Vegas Golden Knights threw the hockey world for a loop with their unceremonious firing of coach Bruce Cassidy on Sunday afternoon. Enter John Tortorella, who made his coaching debut with his new…
Pending unrestricted free agent Bobby McMann has broken out big-time since arriving in the Pacific Northwest, with seven goals and 11 points in eight games with the Seattle Kraken since the trade at the deadline. Insider Elliotte Friedman says the Kraken have no intention of letting the forward get away in free agency this summer. I don't think it's gone very far down the road yet, but we're under the impression that the Kraken have indicated to McMann that they would like to try and keep him....
The Islanders’ up-down, up-down form hopefully does not continue today when they host the Panthers for a 1 p.m. matinee in Elmont. Florida split two games at home (lost to the Wild, beat the Kraken) after finishing a road trip with a 4-1 loss in Calgary. Yes, they are last-except-for-the-Rangers in the East, but the […]
We’re keeping this one short. Since we were live in the building, haven’t had a chance to dive too deep into things, but here are few positive thoughts, and a few negative thoughts from the Tampa Bay Lightning’s 4-3 overtime loss to the Seattle Kraken. Positive thought: The Lightning went 1-for-1 on the power play. Not only that, it was the second unit that scored the goal. Corey Perry was doing Corey Perry things and roofed a nice shot from in close to tie the game up at three. It w...
Game Seventy-One : Seattle Kraken (31-29-10) at Tampa Bay Lightning (44-21-5) Time: 7:00 PM EST Location: Benchmark International Arena, Where the Lightning are 0-1 with Raw Charge in the building this season TV/Stream/Radio: The Spot, KONG, ESPN+, 102.5 FM, Lightning App Odds: Lightning -290 Know the Opponents: Davy Jones Locker Room It wasn’t that long ago that these two teams faced off in Seattle. A somewhat struggling Lightning team kicked off a successful roa...
Vinnie Hinostroza scored the only goal of the shootout to give the Florida Panthers a wild 5-4 victory over the Seattle Kraken at Amerant Bank Arena. After scoreless opening frame, Nolan Foote scored his first NHL goal since April 11, 2024, 2:32 into the second. Gustav Forsling moved the puck around the boards behind his own net and it got by Matty Berniers and came to Noah Gregor. Gregor and Foote took off on a two-on-one break and the former eventually fed the latter in the slot. Foote ...
Florida Panthers forward A.J. Greer has been suspended for three games by the National Hockey League’s Department of Player Safety for boarding Calgary Flames forward Connor Zary on Friday, March 20. Greer will miss Florida’s home games this week against the Seattle Kraken and Minnesota Wild and Saturday’s road game versus the New York Islanders. He will be eligible to return on Sunday, when the Panthers face the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden. The Charlotte Checkers completed ...
Seattle Kraken forward Shane Wright created plenty of chatter as a trade candidate leading up to the 2026 NHL trade deadline. The Kraken ended up not moving him, but it would not be surprising if teams pursued him during the summer as well. Because of this, let's look at three potential offseason trade destinations for Wright if the Kraken make him available this summer. New York Rangers The Rangers were connected to Wright leading up to the deadline, and it is not difficult to understan...
Game 69: Montreal Canadiens vs. New York Islanders Start time: 7:00 PM EDT / 4:00 PM PDT In Canada: CityTV, Sportsnet East (English), TVA Sports (French) In the Islanders region: MSGSN Streaming: ESPN+, Sportsnet+ At the time of writing, the Pittsburgh Penguins have won their game versus the Winnipeg Jets in a shootout, while the Columbus Blue Jackets’ unstoppable march up the order has them out to a 3-1 lead over the Seattle Kraken through one period of play. Those are big res...
St. Louis Blues forward Jordan Kyrou once again found himself in the rumor mill leading up to the 2026 NHL trade deadline. However, the Blues ended up not moving him. While this is the case, there is an expectation that the Blues will listen to offers on Kyrou this summer. Due to this, let's look at three teams that could look to land Kyrou this offseason. Seattle Kraken The Kraken have long been linked to Kyrou, and it makes sense when noting that they could use another high-impac...
It was fitting that the final horn sounded on the Tampa Bay Lightning’s 6-2 victory over the Seattle Kraken with the Nick Paul line generating shots on the Seattle net. While the trio of Nick Paul, Corey Perry, and Oliver Bjorkstrand didn’t score in the win, they were a key part of a defensive effort that forced a lot of turnovers, and kept the puck in the Seattle zone for most of the night. That line finished with an 11-0 edge in shot attempts, 6-0 edge in scoring chances, and 4-0 edge i...
Game Sixty-Six: Tampa Bay Lightning (40-21-4) at Seattle Kraken (31-26-9) Time: 10:00 PM EST Location: Climate Pledge Arena, the city that brought us Macklemore TV/Stream/Radio: TNT. HBOMax, The Spot 102.5 FM, Lightning App Odds: Lightning Know the Opponents: Davy Jones’ Locker Room We’re not going to go too in depth today. Zemgus Girgensons is back in the line-up (or at least he was at practice). That’s good news for continuity in the line-up, something the Light...
The Florida Panthers opened a four-game road trip with a thud, dropping a one-sided 6-2 decision to the Seattle Kraken at Climate Pledge Arena. First Star Kaapo Kakko had a goal and an two assists and Bobby McMann, Ryan Winterton, Berkly Catton, Ben Myers and Jamie Oleksiak each contributed a goal and an assist for the Kraken, who passed the San Jose Sharks to move into the final playoff spot in the Western Conference. Vinnie Hinostroza got the Panthers on the board 12:07 into the fi...
After a frustrating game against the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday, the Colorado Avalanche took on the Seattle Kraken tonight to begin a two-game road trip. The visitors scored early and often to end up winning by a final score of 5-1. Let’s take a look at the action from tonight! First Period Martin Necas would […]
After a frustrating loss to the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night, the Colorado Avalanche head back out on the road tonight to take on the Seattle Kraken. This will be the second out of three regular-season matchups between these two teams, with the Avs having won the first game by a final score of 5-3. […]
The Nashville Predators sold off a bunch of pieces ahead of the trade deadline last week, all of them pending unrestricted free agents. And while the really big names didn't go, they tried their darndest to deal off Jonathan Marchessault as well. Meanwhile, the Preds are just one point back of a playoff spot, trailing the Seattle Kraken for the second Wild Card spot, while the LA Kings and San Jose Sharks are right there with them as well. It sounds like the sell-off while chasing a post...
The trade deadline may be over, but new details continue to emerge about how wide the market was for Bobby McMann . The former Toronto Maple Leafs winger ultimately landed with the Seattle Kraken , but according to The Fourth Period’s Dave Pagnotta , several other teams were aggressively trying to land the power forward before the deal was finalized. McMann became one of the most sought-after rental forwards on the market, but in the end, Seattle stepped up with the winning package, se...
Everyone needs a break every now and then, right? Well, the Winnipeg Jets certainly seemed to have put the 3 week Olympic break to good use, as the franchise has yet to play a game since then where the True Northers didn’t walk away with points. The Manitobans have a 4-0-2 record since goalie Connor Hellebuyck won a gold medal in Italy and that has launched a new belief that they could comeback to steal the Western Conference’s final wildcard spot. The Seattle Kraken have provided some as...

The Islanders finish their four-game road trip with a stop to help Brayden Schenn pack up in St. Louis, where the Blues are returning from a lottery-spoiling perfect four-game western road trip of their own. In full selloff mode, the Blues somehow took out the Kraken, Sharks, Kings and finally the Ducks, with a 4-0 […]
