SEATTLE — The Seattle Kraken face off against the Calgary Flames in its fifth game of the season on Saturday night.
The game is taking place at 7 p.m. at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle.
The game will be broadcast on KONG and the Kraken Hockey Network.
What to expect from the Kraken
It's been an uneven start for the Kraken, who alternated wins and losses early in the season. Seattle's two wins have been prolific scoring games (5 goals against the Wild, 7 goals against the Predators), but one of its losses includes a goalless performance against the Predators.
Can the Kraken build some momentum?
What to expect from the Flames
Calgary has started off the 2024 season hot (pun very much intended). The Flames won its first four games in dominating fashion — its +9 goal differential leads the entire National Hockey League (NHL). The team's 19 goals only trail the Utah Hockey Club at this point in the season. There are not many teams playing at a higher level than the Flames.
