A year ago, there were questions about who would play center for the Seattle Kraken. The NHL expansion draft left Seattle with a group of forwards who had played both the wing and in the middle, but there weren’t many obvious true centers, making it unclear who would play the pivot. There is still a question about who will play center this season, but that’s because the Kraken now have a glut of centers, including two young and budding stars.
We can quibble about which of the top two lines to use him on compared to Jared McCann, but I’ll assume the Kraken put Bjorkstrand — who has performed at a top level longer than McCann — on the No. trio for now. That leaves McCann at No.
The Firebirds will play four games in Seattle including one at Climate Pledge Arena, home of the Seattle Kraken
