Here’s the Full List of Players Selected for Seattle Kraken’s Roster

The Seattle Kraken announced their initial 30-player roster during the 2021 NHL expansion draft Wednesday night.

Seattle had to select at least 14 forwards, 9 defensemen and 3 goalies.

The remaining selections were allowed to come from any position. One pick came from each of the existing NHL franchises aside from the Vegas Golden Knights, who were exempt from the process.

The Kraken also had an exclusive negotiation window with potential free agents. Any contracts signed counted as their pick from the players’ previous teams.

I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Shoot me an email: iburdetskiy@hookedonhockey.com and let's talk some hockey!
