The Seattle Kraken reveal their NHL roster
Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalli, in particular, was on fire today, leaking probably two-thirds of the Kraken's roster before most of us had even sipped our first day's coffee.
It's official now, though. If any doubts lingered about the validity of the day's leaks, we can now put those to rest. Every one of them held true.
