Seattle Kraken (17-34-5) vs Carolina Hurricanes (38-12-5)
Now that I’ve gotten that joke out of my system, welcome to the preview. The Hurricanes are one of the NHL’s best teams and the Kraken are one of the NHL’s worst, so naturally, everyone is probably a little nervous about this one. The Kraken were victorious in the first meeting, winning 2-1, so the Hurricanes will be looking to even out the season series and pick up their second win in a four game home stand.
Obviously, this is the return of Morgan Geekie, Haydn Fleury and Ron Francis to Raleigh.
