The Seattle Kraken are a professional ice hockey team based in Seattle . They are members of the Pacific Division of the National Hockey League (NHL).[ 1] [ 2] Since their arrival in 2021, 59 players, 4 goaltenders and 55 skaters (forwards and defensemen ) have played in a Kraken jersey for at least one regular season game.[ 3]
Each NHL team may select a captain , who has the "privilege of discussing with the Referee any questions relating to interpretation of rules which may arise during the progress of a game." Captains are required to wear the letter "C" on their uniform for identification, the "C" being approximately 3 inches (7.6 cm) in height.[ 4] The first player to have served as captain of the Kraken is Mark Giordano , his captaincy starting in October 2021 and ending five months later.[ 5] [ 6] On October 8, 2024, prior the Kraken's first game of the 2024–25 season , Jordan Eberle was named the team's new captain.[ 7]
Adam Larsson has the most games played out of any Kraken, with 245.[ 8] Jared McCann leads the Kraken in both goals and points , with 96 and 182, respectively.[ 9] [ 10] Vince Dunn leads the Kraken in assists , with 113.[ 11]

Mark Giordano was the Seattle Kraken's inaugural captain from 2021 to 2022.
Matty Beniers was the first-ever draft selection for the Kraken.[ 14] During the 2022–23 season , he won the Calder Memorial Trophy as NHL rookie of the year.[ 15]
a The "Seasons" column lists the first year of the season of the player's first game and the last year of the season of the player's last game. For example, a player who played one game in the 2021–22 season would be listed as playing with the team from 2021 to 2022, regardless of what calendar year the game occurred within.
b While Burakovsky was born in Austria, his nationality is listed as Swedish because he played for the Swedish national team .[ 16]
