The NHL is full of surprises, and the latest power rankings are no exception. The Kraken, Seattle’s newest hockey team, have made a huge splash in their first season, and it shows in the latest power rankings. The Kraken have been ranked 11th in the NHL, an impressive feat for a team that has only been in existence for a few months.
The Kraken have been led by their star players, including center Mathew Barzal and winger Anders Lee. Barzal has been a revelation for the team, leading the team in points and assists. Lee has also been a consistent force on the ice, providing a physical presence and scoring goals when needed. The team also has a deep defense, with veteran defenseman Radko Gudas and rookie Cal Foote anchoring the blue line.
The Kraken have also been bolstered by strong goaltending from veteran netminder Thomas Greiss and rookie Roddy Ross. Greiss has been a steadying presence in net, while Ross has shown flashes of brilliance in his first NHL season. This combination of talent has allowed the Kraken to compete with some of the top teams in the league.
The Kraken have also benefited from a strong start to the season, going 6-3-1 in their first 10 games. This strong start has allowed them to build momentum and confidence as they continue to compete in the highly competitive NHL.
The Kraken have certainly made a strong impression in their first season, and their 11th place ranking is a testament to their hard work and dedication. With a talented roster and a strong start to the season, the Kraken look poised to make some noise in the NHL this season.
