SEATTLE — The Seattle Kraken play a team that previously won a Stanley Cup for the third game in a row on Saturday.
In game three of a four-game homestand, the Kraken return to action on December 14 to play the Tampa Bay Lightning.
The Lightning last won a Stanley Cup in 2021, and sitting near the top of the Atlantic Division in the Eastern Conference, the Lightning are looking to steal a game from the Kraken in Seattle.
Prior to Saturday's game, the Kraken lost to the Florida Panthers in a shootout earlier in the week. Thursday night, the Kraken took on the Boston Bruins, but the Kraken responded to Tuesday night's loss to Florida, winning 5-1 against the Bruins.
The Kraken looks to continue their winning ways on Saturday and slowly inch closer to the top of the Pacific Division in the Western Conference.
