Kraken Acquire NHL Veteran From Colorado
Reports from NHL insider Elliotte Friedman have confirmed that the Seattle Kraken and Colorado Avalanche have struck a deal. The Kraken will receive Tomas Tatar for a 5th-round pick.
Tatar is a player with a ton of experience that will bring a scoring touch to the struggling Kraken group. The Avalanche felt they could do without Tatar and pick up a 5th-round pick for their troubles.
Tatar has struggled this year playing in a bottom-six role with 9 points in 27 games. A fresh start could be the jolt he needs to pick up his production.
