The Seattle Kraken Signed a few big names in free agency, among them some much needed scoring hope in Jaden Schwartz. He is an experienced 2way forward that can play center or wing. He adds a solid locker room veteran presence, and continues the trend of forwards that can play both ways and are hard to play against. It’s a 5yr 5.5Mill AAV contract that we will see how it ages but for now an excellent pick up!

Top content, keep it up 🙂
So I'm learning hockey but I fully admit that I'm not up to speed yet. I'm *certainly* not up to where I can comment on the quality of the Squids at this moment.
But I AM a lifelong Seahawks fan and Mariners 'observer' [when the Munglers actually start trying to win something other than Third Place in the Third Best Division, I'll revisit that] and one thing that I've learned about having my hopes smashed repeatedly is that you can draft and acquire the best players in the world, but if they don't play like a team they're screwed.
Hakstol doesn't have the greatest pro-level coaching resume in the world and welding this team 'odd and sods' [however carefully selected] is going to be the single biggest challenge of his career.
Don't get me wrong, I'll get my inaugural jersey in September and be at the Climate Arena at least a couple-three times in the season. But I've learned as a fan that it takes more than a fat checkbook, more than talent, and more than a genius to forge a winning team.
I think Schwartz will be the 1st line LW and play with Yanni when he gets back. I think they will start with Wennberg at C as the 1st line and Eberle as the RW. I feel that C is still the weakness and not many FA C that are that good. I don't feel Ron wants to trade anyone yet unless someone is giving away a C for nothing which might happen with some teams who are having CAP concerns. Otherwise …"how soon till Yanni gets back"?
Just found your channel. Former Dallas Stars fan moving on to the Kraken. Great videos, keep it up!
Blues might have the best looking sweaters in the league. So clean
Geoff Courtnall should be an assistant coach for either the Kraken or Canucks. I wonder what he thinks of Schwartz…
