The NHL’s newest expansion team, the Seattle Kraken, continued to take shape on Wednesday night with the 2021 expansion draft.
Prior to the draft, 30 of the NHL’s other 31 teams had to set their lists of protected and available players; the Vegas Golden Knights, having just entered the league in 2017, did not have to expose any players to selection by the Kraken.
With the expansion draft complete, here’s a rundown of all 30 players selected to join the league’s newest franchise.
