Three reasons why the Golden Knights/Kraken is more fun than you'd realize
Not many people talk about the Seattle Kraken/Vegas Golden Knights rivalry. Not many even knows its existence. But here's why you should.
3. Both the Vegas Golden Knights and Seattle Kraken have bright futures
The Vegas Golden Knights are your defending Stanley Cup champions. Last season, they dismantled the Florida Panthers, 4-1, to raise Lord Stanley. The Golden Knights just had a busy trade deadline, hoping to repeat as the champions.
The Seattle Kraken have a young core that took down the Colorado Avalanche in last season's Stanley Cup playoffs. Led by a motley crew of Matty Beniers and Jared McCann, the Kraken are poised to take over the NHL.
That leaves hockey fans with the opportunity to usher in a new rivalry. A battle between the two youngest NHL teams, consisting of the big dog vs. the underdog. It's a David vs. Goliath story fit for a Hollywood movie.
