The Seattle Kraken are gearing up for a pivotal season after a disappointing 34-35-13 record last year. With a new head coach, Dan Bylsma, at the helm, the team aims to revitalize its offense and improve on its playoff miss.
Key additions include center Chandler Stephenson and defenseman Brandon Montour, both expected to enhance the team's scoring capabilities. The Kraken will rely on players like Jared McCann and Matty Beniers to step up, while also integrating top prospect Shane Wright into the lineup.
Despite strong goaltending from Joey Daccord and Philipp Grubauer, the Kraken's offensive struggles were evident last season. The organization hopes the new signings will help improve their shooting percentage and overall offensive output.
