SEATTLE — The Seattle Kraken will play the Chicago Blackhawks in their 17th game of the season on Thursday night.
The game is at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle at 7 p.m.
The game will be on KONG, available through cable, satellite, or antenna, and available for streaming through Fubo. The game will also be broadcast across the Kraken Hockey Network. Pregame coverage begins at 6:30 p.m.
What to expect from the Kraken
Home sweet home, it appears. After dropping four straight road games on its recent road trip, the Kraken has found more success within the friendly confines of Climate Pledge Arena. Heading into Thursday night's matchup, the Kraken have scored nine goals in two consecutive victories at home.
What to expect from the Blackhawks
Chicago's poor start to the season — seven losses in its first nine games — means the team is near the bottom in the Central Division in points. However, the Blackhawks have stabilized in the last few weeks, with four wins in seven games, giving them some hope to turn their season around.
