Can the Kraken Continue Their Home Ice Dominance Against Vegas?
As the Seattle Kraken prepare to host the Vegas Golden Knights at Climate Pledge Arena, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their recent home ice success. The Kraken have shown resilience and strategic prowess in their past few games, which bodes well for the upcoming challenge.
In their last encounter with Pittsburgh Penguins, Seattle showcased a formidable defense, shutting out their opponents with a 2-0 victory. The goaltending was impeccable, saving all 33 shots and contributing to a perfect save percentage. This defensive solidity is something they'll look to replicate against Vegas.
The game prior saw an intense battle that went beyond regulation time against the Boston Bruins. Despite trailing in faceoff win percentage at 40 percent, Seattle's tenacity led them to a shootout where they secured a win by scoring one goal and making two saves.
Against Minnesota Wild, however, Seattle faced adversity but managed to score twice on 32 shots despite losing with five goals against them. This game highlighted areas for improvement as they allowed two powerplay goals while failing to capitalize on any of their own five powerplay opportunities.
Seattle's performance has been marked by strong even-strength play and an ability to come through when it matters most. They've demonstrated both offensive capabilities and defensive resilience across these games – factors that will be critical when facing off against Vegas Golden Knights.
Fans should expect an exciting match-up where special teams could play a significant role given recent performances from both sides. With Climate Pledge Arena proving to be a fortress of late for the Kraken, there's every reason for optimism among supporters.
The clash between Seattle Kraken and Vegas Golden Knights is scheduled for March 13th at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle. Fans can catch all the action live on ESPN+ via internet streaming or tune into ROOT Sports NW or SCRIPPS on TV starting at 7:00 PM local time (Pacific Time Zone).
