The kraken a legendary sea monster of gigantic size, born in Scandinavian folklore.

According to the sailors of yesteryear, the kraken dwells off the coasts of Norway and Greenland and now SEATTLE terrorizing nearby sailors and soon skaters.

In 2021 The National Hockey League will enter Washington state for the first time with the birth of the mighty Seattle Kraken.

The team is built by legendary player/general manager Ron Francis and begins play this October in the pacific division.

Tonight we talk all things Kraken and hockey in this edition of Hockey Chirps with Those Canadian Lads with  @elindsay08 Erica Ayala of Locked On Kraken a podcast dedicated to everything Kraken.

So let's get Kraken!
