Seattle Kraken News & Notes:

Seattle is 4-6 in the last and quickly falling out of the playoff contention. After the addition of Kaapo Kakko, I’d expect the Kraken to be on the prowl for more trades like Kakko’s. The Kraken don’t have a lot of organizational depth yet and needs more talent around its core.

St. Louis Blues News & Notes:

After not having the season they hoped, the St. Louis Blues have some unsuspecting names hitting the trade rumors. Over the last week, Brayden Schenn, Colton Parayko, and even Jordan Binnington have been bandied about for potential trades.

Seattle Kraken Projected Lines:

Tolvanen-Stephenson-Bjorkstrand
