Top Performers: Seattle Kraken


Jared McCann has been a standout player for the Seattle Kraken, showcasing his skill and determination on the ice. In a recent game against the Minnesota Wild, although not scoring, his effort was palpable through his aggressive playstyle. However, it was Eeli Tolvanen who truly lit up the scoreboard with two goals against the Vancouver Canucks, demonstrating his shooting prowess and making him another key player for the Kraken.


Defensively, Jamie Oleksiak and Adam Larsson have been solid at the back, contributing not just in defense but also offensively when needed. Their ability to transition play has been crucial for Seattle's strategy.

Key Players: Nashville Predators


On the Nashville side, Steven Stamkos has been a force to be reckoned with. His exceptional performance against Boston Bruins where he scored one goal and assisted two more highlights his importance to the team. Ryan O'Reilly also shone brightly with two goals in that same game, proving his worth as a top performer.


Defender Luke Schenn has been instrumental in maintaining Nashville's defensive line. His physical play and ability to disrupt opposing offenses have made him a vital part of the Predators' squad.
