In the next step towards the NHL returning to the ice, the league announced newly-structured 84-game schedules on Thursday, including a pair of games for the Kraken in Finland. Emerald City Spectrum writer Nick Lee shares several of his biggest takeaways from the new schedule, starting with some not-so-ideal luck in regard to the number of back-to-back games the team will have to play next season and an oddly unbalanced schedule against Pacific Division opponents, plus discusses a pair of minor re-signings on the roster and looks at three remaining free agent options who could still be short-term upgrades with cap space to use.
