Kraken Camp Focuses on Defense | Seattle Kraken News

The Seattle Kraken’s development camp is heating up with a defensive-heavy roster, featuring eight new defensemen—including their first-ever first-round pick, Chase Reid—and a full dozen forwards, all vying for a spot on the NHL roster. Former Kraken star Justin Schultz, now a player development consultant, is mentoring the young defensemen, bringing his Stanley Cup experience to the table. The camp kicks off with intense drills before culminating in the “Stucky Cup” 3-on-3 tournament—a fun nod to an assistant equipment manager. General Manager Jason Botterill is thrilled with the draft class, especially the defensive depth, and sees Schultz as the ideal guide to build a stronger, more resilient future for the Kraken.
