Kraken Training Camp + Preseason 2021

[RainyCityHockey]

I thought we could use a seperate thread, given that we're only a week out from training camp and only ten days before the puck drops the first time for a Kraken preseason game.

The preseason games are:
Sepember 26th: Vancouver @ Seattle (Spokane, WA/Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena)
September 28th: Seattle @ Edmonton
September 29th: Seattle @ Calgary
October 1st: Edmonton @ Seattle (Everett, WA/Angel of the Winds Arena)
October 2nd: Calgary @ Seattle (Kent, WA/Accesso ShowWare Center)
October 5th: Seattle @ Vancouver

Most of the team's already in Seattle and has been skating/practising together.

Today was media day and there are a few tweets already out there with certainly more on social media happening as we go on.







You can find more on the official social media channels of the Kraken.

Anyway to watch the pre season games if you are out of market?

Depends on where actually you are.

It's ESPN+ in the US, NHL Live in Canada and NHL TV for international customers.
You can check it out here.

Though, I'm not sure which of the pre-season games will be broadcasted.

Lol Kraken fans excited about a Zamboni.

Damn straight.

And that is not just a Zamboni, it is a NHL Zamboni. It's implications are that NHL hockey is actually here.

You better believe we are excited about what that represents.

Yeah, get it straight man... that Zamboni is a big deal.

Well he probably won't play in any games during pre-season but still can practice with the team.

I think it's for the physical and other stuff he has to do for his rehab + photo shoot etc..

Nice to see that some preseason games will be on OTA/cable channels. This is mostly due to Mariners overlap but glad they are shown rather than shown on a delay only.

9/26 vs Van - Root Sports
9/28 @EDM - Kong (Mariners on Root)
9/29 @cgy - Kong (Mariners on Root)
10/1 vs Edm - King (Mariners on Root)
10/2 vs Cgy - Kong (Mariners on Root)
10/5 @Van - Root Sports

Aside from the 1st game, all games appear to be immediately rebroadcast at 11pm on Root Sports.

For radio, I assume they will all be on 950am but their schedule does not reflect this at this time.

The Alberta games are taped delayed on root cause of the mariners.

ROOT Sports has a deal with FuboTV but still no set date on when they actually have the channel. May miss out on a few pre-season games on ROOT but glad that Kong is showing atleast some games.

They have to be take a physical. Weber, Malkin, etc around the league are on the training camp rosters as well. If you have a player like Pronger or Hossa on a LTIR they have to take a physical every year I’m pretty sure.
