The Seattle Kraken named Dan Bylsma their coach on Tuesday, putting the 2009 Stanley Cup winner with Pittsburgh back in charge of an NHL team for the first time since 2017.
Bylsma replaces Dave Hakstol, who was fired after the Kraken struggled offensively. Bylsma aims to boost Seattle's scoring after leading Coachella Valley to success with strong offensive play.
His coaching experience with Pittsburgh and Buffalo makes him a valuable addition as Seattle looks to improve its offensive end under his leadership. Bylsma's track record with developing talent will be key for the Kraken's future success.
