Cutting the Cord, Not the Kraken: Your Guide to Watching Seattle's Finest Without Cable
Ah, cable. The land of endless reruns, questionable documentaries about mummified cats, and... sometimes, hockey games. But who needs that tangled mess of wires when you've got the glorious world of streaming at your fingertips? Especially when it comes to cheering on Seattle's resident cephalopod squad, the mighty Kraken!
So, ditch the cable bill and get ready to witness some high-octane hockey action from the comfort of your couch (or bathtub, we don't judge). Here's your ultimate guide to watching the Kraken tentacles fly, cable-free:
Calling All Out-of-Marketers: Your Streaming Soiree Awaits!
Living outside the Kraken's icy grasp (Seattle area, we're looking at you)? No worries, mateys! You've got a treasure trove of streaming services at your disposal:
- ESPN+: This is your one-stop shop for out-of-market NHL goodness. Think of it as a buffet overflowing with Kraken games, all for a monthly fee that won't make you cry into your clam chowder.
- Streaming Services with Regional Sports Networks (RSNs): Services like Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, Sling TV, and FuboTV can be your ticket to catching Kraken games broadcast on Root Sports NW. Just make sure the service you choose carries Root Sports in your area (because nobody wants blackout blues!).
Tip: Read in a quiet space for focus.

| How To Watch Seattle Kraken Games Without Cable |
Local Legends, Rejoice!
Seattleites, you lucky barnacles! You can catch most Kraken home games the old-fashioned way (but way less dusty) – with an antenna! Just grab a decent antenna, point it towards the sky (because that's where the magical TV signals live, obviously), and tune in to KONG (channel 16.1 or 106 on Xfinity). Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
But Wait, There's More!
QuickTip: Scroll back if you lose track.
Here's a heads-up, hockey fans: some Kraken games might be nationally televised on channels like ESPN, TNT, or even the ol' reliable ABC. So, keep an eye on the schedule and get ready to cheer alongside the rest of the hockey-loving nation!

Is there a way to watch Kraken games for free?
Legally streaming sports for free can be tricky. While there might be some not-so-official options out there, we recommend sticking with the legit streaming services to avoid any, ahem, Kraken-sized headaches.
Is there a Kraken-themed streaming service coming soon?
While we can all dream of a world with a "KrakenVision" streaming platform filled with exclusive Kraken content (including mascot dance tutorials, obviously), there's no word on that yet. But hey, if the demand is high enough, who knows? Maybe you'll be watching Kraken games while wearing a VR headset and sipping on virtual kelp smoothies someday!
