Safe to say fans can't wait to release the Kraken with merchandise sales continuing to set records.
According to Fanatics, the NHL's official retail partner, the Seattle Kraken have become the league's best-selling expansion identity launch ever. They've beaten the previous leader, the Vegas Golden Knights, four-fold.
Two Kraken items have been in the top three in sales across all Fanatics' sites. The Kraken Fanatics Branded Navy Logo T-Shirt and Fanatics Branded Tri-Blend T-Shirt ranked behind only the highly coveted orange WNBA hoodie.
After the Kraken revealed their name on July 23, the first 24 hours marked a flurry of sales for the online store. Seattle was the top-selling team across all major sports leagues during that period.
