Ice Warriors Clash at Climate Pledge Arena: Seattle Kraken Host St. Louis Blues

As the Seattle Kraken prepare to host the St. Louis Blues at Climate Pledge Arena, fans are eager to see if their team can continue its recent trend of strong performances. The upcoming match on January 27th promises to be an exciting one, with both teams looking to assert their dominance on the ice.

The Kraken have shown a commendable level of resilience in their past games. In their most recent outing against the Anaheim Ducks, they secured a victory with a final score of 3-2, showcasing a solid defensive game with 32 saves and an impressive save percentage of 94 percent by their goaltender. Their offense was also notable, achieving a shooting percentage of 14 percent and capitalizing on powerplay opportunities.


Prior to that win, Seattle faced off against the Los Angeles Kings and emerged victorious with a scoreline reflecting another close game at 2-1. The goaltending was exceptional once again as they saved 42 out of 43 shots for an astounding save percentage of nearly 98 percent.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for the Kraken as they experienced an overtime loss against the Dallas Stars despite scoring three goals and putting up thirty-eight shots on goal. This indicates that while there is offensive potential within this team, there's room for improvement in clutch situations.


Seattle's performance has been characterized by tenacity and grit but also highlighted areas needing refinement such as faceoff percentages which have been below fifty percent consistently across games.


Fans attending Climate Pledge Arena can expect to witness this blend of determination and skill from their home team as they face off against St. Louis Blues who will undoubtedly provide stiff competition.


The match is scheduled for January 27th at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle; puck drop is set for local time (3:00 AM GMT). Fans unable to attend can catch all the action live on ESPN+ nationally or ROOT Sports NW locally in Seattle (channel number:687), while BSMW will broadcast it in St.Louis (channel number:671).
