   Seattle's star defenseman, Vince Dunn, had an amazing shot! Eeli Tolvanen redirected the puck and scored! This being Eeli Tolvanen's 10th goal of the season. Dunn's assist marks his sixth point in last four games! He also leads Seattle with 31 points. The final score of first period being 1-0.


   Will Borgen scores only a few minutes into second period! The Kraken now in the lead by 2 goals and the goal being Borgen's first of the season! The final score of second period being 2-0.


    Yanni Gourde scored his 5th of the season! This being the last goal of the game - the Kraken wins with a 3-0 score. Definitely a great way to start of 2024!



   Due to Joey Daccord making history in the NHL Winter Classic this new year, he received the first Cocoa Cup!
