Seattle Kraken Seek Redemption Against Los Angeles Kings

As the Seattle Kraken prepare to face off against the Los Angeles Kings, fans are eager to see if their team can bounce back from recent performances. The Kraken's last few games have been a mix of close calls and tough losses, with their most recent match against the Arizona Coyotes ending in an overtime loss despite a solid defensive effort that saw them block 21 shots and win over half of their faceoffs.

The game prior was less forgiving; the Vegas Golden Knights capitalized on Seattle's penalties, which contributed to a -10 plus-minus rating for the Kraken. However, they did manage to score once on powerplay opportunities out of three chances. Goaltending remained strong with a save percentage rounding up to 100 percent despite the loss.

In contrast, their encounter with Buffalo Sabres at home showcased some vulnerabilities as they allowed six goals at even strength and lost by four points. This defeat highlighted an area of concern: faceoff performance where they only won 39 percent of draws.

Looking ahead to their next game at Crypto.com Arena, it's crucial for Seattle to tighten up defensively and capitalize on powerplay opportunities while improving in faceoff situations. The venue has historically been challenging for visiting teams due to its energetic atmosphere and passionate home crowd support.
