Seattle Kraken history
Seattle Hockey Partners pitched an expansion team to the NHL, and the league said yes. The Kraken took the ice in the 2021-22 season at Climate Pledge Arena, and the debut was rough: last place in the Pacific Division with 60 points.
Year two flipped the script. A 46-28-8 record and 100 points earned the first Western Conference wild card spot. In round one, Seattle knocked out the defending champion Colorado Avalanche in seven games, the first expansion team ever to beat a reigning champ in its first playoff series. Dallas ended the run in round two. Later seasons slipped to 81 points and then 76, and the club changed coaches twice, moving from Dave Hakstol to Dan Bylsma to Lane Lambert.
