    It's a bit of a stretch but they're saying the S is a reference to the metros. Sure why not.

    Nicknaming the fans Krakheads would be a huge step backwards for the league, imo

    Yeah I hate everything about this reveal (outside of the logo). The colour scheme makes it look like Seattle's organization was trying to improve on what the Atlanta Thrashers were trying to do, but still failed at getting right. It looks like something out of Harry Potter

    When you purchase Kraken merchandise, you invest in our community. The Seattle Kraken will donate 100% of net proceeds through August 21 to local nonprofits YouthCare, Community Passageways, and the Urban League of Metropolitan Seattle, to help end youth homelessness and create positive pathways and opportunities for BIPOC youth in our region

    I already stan this team so hard

    There's actually a lot of funny little Easter eggs in this thing. I don't understand why Philly left the chat but it makes me laugh.

    I'm guessing taking a shot at the fans of Philly?

    Beggars shouldn't be choosers and these are great orgs but a little bummed they didn't include the Vera Project on their list especially because they are right there at Seattle Center

    Glad to have the NHL in the NW finally. I'll defintely have to make the trip up to Seattle for some games. Never been a huge fan of Seattle teams since I'm from Portland, but I may have to make an exception.

    I love Gritty... but... this is an octopus... not a kraken... or even a squid...

    The kraken not bringing the Sonics Sasquatch back would be a bummer
