Seattle Kraken 2024-25 NHL Season Preview | The Steve Dangle Podcast 

It's amusing to listen to them talk about young goaltenders who had great years being able to repeat it while listening to their praise and confidence in Woll for this upcoming season.

About the Kraken...on paper they honestly added exactly what they needed in a second offensive defenseman in Montour and a second veteran center in Stephenson...The only potential question mark might be in goal if they have injuries, who's gonna help ? I think they will be way better this year with a full Wright year but i see them more as wildcard. Going the right way !

We’re undoubtedly a better team than last year and almost got in despite injuries last year. Jesse’s take is so ridiculously bad. Part of it is the terrible analysis this channel does. Even just shooting percent returning to average gets you another 8 points on the season. Still probably a wildcard but definitely over the Kings.

Some of these takes are just GARBAGE lol

Tyson Barrie syndrome...that is just bad offensive defenseman management really ! Remember, not long ago you needed 2 offensive defenseman on your powerplay, 4 forwards is a very recent concept. Put your best player, that is good management wether it's one or 2 offensive defensemen !!

They're a solid team. But they lack a star up front

From a Sabres fan, the confidence in Bylsma.....wooooooof. This man had multiple eventual cup winners on his Sabres teams, plus other guys that have since gotten close. His Sabres teams should have been better. Bylsma was a BIG issue.

Would you rather have Chandler Stephenson or John Tavares, right now this season. It’s gotta be Stephenson. Or William Karlsson or John Tavares this season coming up. I think Tavares needs to go somehow. You can always find a trade partner.

Annual reminder that outside of the Atlantic division, your analysis degrades rapidly as you head west.

Krakens biggest issues since inception have been getting it in the offensive zone on power play and having NO ONE that can win faceoffs which kills them in the end of games and in the playoffs. It's why they overpaid for the 2 veterans, they will help tremendously. But can they stay healthy? Can they score? We will see, this team can do what Vancouver did last year or they can barely miss the playoffs. We really don't know

I love my team but man are we a weird one. Last year 29th offense 4th defense the year prior 4th offense and 28th defense. Strapped in ready for the ride

I want a better Seattle team, but I don't see the changes they made making them a much better team than last season, barring some rookies taking the reins and dragging the team kicking and screaming up the standings. There's no reason they should have no cap space with the roster that they have and most teams in their division either got a lot better or are trying to tread water higher in the standings. If Calgary keeps sending every tradable warm body out of town, the Kraken could finish as high as 5th in the division, but could also just as easily finish 6th again.

Ahl team is built

The Kraken are a weird team. They have a tendency to rise and fall season to season. They need a retool on the fly and not like a Sens Retool which should have and should definitely be a complete rebuild from scratch going forward.
