The Seattle Kraken are getting ready to begin their NHL journey with the Expansion Draft taking place on Wednesday. The expansion draft is taking place with the same rules as the 2017 Expansion Draft that gave us the Vegas Golden Knights.
The final part of the Expansion Draft prediction series is here! If you have read the others, you know that the only division missing is the Metropolitan. As was the case with the Atlantic and Central, there are eight teams to break down here, so let’s dive right in.
While the Wild may have ruined the Central edition with their announcement of buying out Ryan Suter and Zach Parise, the Atlantic is still innocent for now. So, before Jack Eichel eventually gets traded, let’s grind through this division.
Leading up to the next expansion draft in the NHL on July 21st, we have been previewing each team’s potential protected list and which player they will lose to the Kraken. Today is the Central Division. After only six teams in the Pacific will need to participate (aside from the Kraken, of course), the Central’s eight is a big boost up. They will also have a new team in this division, or at least when the season resets officially on July 28th. So, let’s make some predictions.
Later this month, we will have a full roster for the 32nd National Hockey League team. The Seattle Kraken will pick one player from almost every team, as they try to build a successful roster.

The first-ever season for the Seattle Kraken, well, happened. They finished dead last in the Western Conference and a bulk of their moves from the Expansion Draft and in free agency haven’t panned out.
The maiden voyage of the Seattle Kraken hasn’t exactly been one for the books. With an expansion draft that hasn’t aged well early on, they sit in the basement of the Pacific with just 40 points.
There is a new kid on the block this NHL Season, their name is the Seattle Kraken. The Pacific Northwest’s newest franchise hits the ice for the very first time later on tonight against the Vegas Golden Knights at T-Mobile Arena.
Expecting an expansion franchise to have an abundance of draft picks in the team’s first-ever entry draft is not uncommon. But in the case of the Seattle Kraken, only seven players were selected across the seven rounds.
