After missing the playoffs in back-to-back seasons, the Seattle Kraken have traded their captain Nathan MacKinnon, to the Toronto Maple Leafs. MacKinnon spent 7 seasons with the Kraken after being traded from Columbus and managed to rack up and impressive 577 points in 601 games played.
In return, the Kraken will receive noted playoff performer, Auston Matthews, and Memorial Cup champion, Matyas Sapovaliv.
This marks a new era for both the Seattle Kraken and the Toronto Maple Leafs as they look to reshape their franchises.
