Talk:Seattle Kraken

Plurals, Grammar
Hi! I was reverted, and properly corrected for not using an edit summary (my apologies) - in regards to "grammatically incorrect". In the sentence "The Seattle Kraken are" the correct style use as found at MOS:Plurals directs us to use "are" in this form. This is the same across all the professional hockey teams in the English Wikipedia. King keudo (talk) 19:10, 4 May 2023 (UTC)


 * You are, of course, correct. (Come to that, this issue was discussed above three years ago.)  North American English usage is quite clear on the subject: {CITYNAME} {TEAMNAME} are.   Ravenswing      23:38, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
 * There are exceptions, but the Kraken are not one of them. I checked a news story on their own web site: " After winning Game 1 of this series in overtime, the Kraken knew they needed to be prepared for a pushback from Dallas…" —C.Fred (talk) 01:25, 6 May 2023 (UTC)

Samantha Holloway
Looks like Samantha Holloway is missing from the owner list, I think she is also co-chair. Moedk (talk) 10:36, 1 June 2023 (UTC)


 * @Moedk Do you have a source we can verify that with? —C.Fred (talk) 11:29, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I googled “samantha holloway seattle kraken” and found quite a few reliable sources backing up this statement. If Moedk edits the page with this info and a source cited, that would be a good thing for the article. White 720 (talk) 13:11, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Well, I just wondered who the woman, named Sam, that together with Tod Leiweke, presented the extension of Ron Francis, and google it. I don't know if she is majority or minoritet owner, but added her to minority, one article I saw mentioned she is equal owner, but I couldn't tell if that was equal to her father David Bonderman or just the other minority owners. And I can't make out if she is Chair or Co-Chair, articles differ. Moedk (talk) 20:27, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

100 Wins
The team has just won their 100th game (https://www.nhl.com/kraken/news/seattle-kraken-100th-franchise-win); where would this be most relevant? Thanks! .pxrtypoisxn. (talk) 02:42, 7 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Nowhere, really. Any non-ephemeral professional franchise gets there sooner or later, and it's not particularly noteworthy beyond a single sentence in the game writeup in the newspapers.   Ravenswing      05:18, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
