Kraken's Recent Surge


In their last outing against the San Jose Sharks on April 5, 2025, the Seattle Kraken showcased a dominant performance, netting five goals and allowing only one in return. This victory was not just about scoring; it was a comprehensive display of powerplay efficiency, defensive solidity, and goaltending brilliance. Jared McCann and Shane Wright were among the stars who shone brightest that night, with McCann leading by example and Wright continuing to prove why he's considered one of the most promising talents in hockey today.


Another noteworthy performance came against the Vancouver Canucks on April 2, where once again, the Kraken demonstrated their offensive prowess by securing a convincing 5-0 victory. The team's ability to capitalize on even-strength opportunities while maintaining discipline under pressure was evident throughout this game.

Challenges Ahead


However, facing off against the St. Louis Blues will be no easy feat. The Blues have been formidable opponents with a solid record this season. In their previous encounter with Dallas Stars on March 31st at Climate Pledge Arena – despite falling short – showed signs of resilience from SEA that could spell trouble for STL if underestimated.


The key for Seattle lies in maintaining their high shooting percentage while tightening up defensively to counteract STL's offensive threats. Special teams will play a crucial role; SEA must leverage any powerplay opportunities while being vigilant during penalty kills.
