The Seattle Kraken host the Montreal Canadiens coming off a 3-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers.

SEATTLE — The Seattle Kraken host the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday, Oct. 28, in Seattle. 

The puck will drop at 7:30 p.m. at Climate Pledge Arena.

The game will be broadcast on KONG with pregame coverage starting at 7 p.m.

What to know about the Kraken vs. Canadiens

This is the second meeting of the season for Seattle and Montreal. The Canadiens edged out the Kraken in overtime on Oct. 14. Here’s a closer look at their matchup on Tuesday: 

1. The past two Kraken wins over powerhouse Winnipeg and Edmonton squads were built on the foundation of solid fourth-line play. It started with strong forechecking in the offensive end, which limited the ability of the Jets or Oilers to get their high-flying offenses untracked.

2. Joey Daccord appears to have the whole No. 1 goalie thing figured out for now. It’s a tribute to Daccord that the Kraken are averaging only 2.8 goals per game of offense, yet somehow that’s translated to a franchise-best 5-2-2 start. 

3. Montreal has the NHL’s youngest team at 25.17 years of age on average and has looked very impressive this early season, putting up a 7-3-0 record that’s tops in the Atlantic Division and second best for points in the Eastern Conference behind New Jersey. Since losing their season opener in Toronto, they haven’t dropped another game by more than one goal.
