Kraken Look to Halt Slide

The Seattle Kraken (32‑31‑11) head to Climate Pledge Arena on Saturday, April 4, 2026, for a 10 p.m. showdown with the Chicago Blackhawks (27‑35‑14). Seattle hopes to arrest a three‑game skid, while Chicago, already out of playoff contention, aims to end a five‑game road losing streak.

Key Players

Seattle leans on Jordan Eberle, who leads the team with 24 goals and 52 points, and Chandler Stephenson, the assists leader with 30. Chicago’s recent spark has come from Tyler Bertuzzi, who has tallied five points in his last four games against the Kraken.

Tactical Notes

Kraken coach expects a “different look” on the power play, tweaking formations that have faltered in recent outings. Chicago will rely on veteran forward Andre Burakovsky, who has found the net three times this season against Seattle.

Stakes

A win would give Seattle its first victory in the series this year and could restore confidence as the club battles for a playoff spot. For Chicago, the game offers a chance to finish the season on a positive note despite the early exit.

The matchup will be streamed on ESPN+ and available via regional sports networks.
