Seattle Kraken New First Fortnight at The Greenhouse [PHOTOS]
Halloween Game, Seattle Kraken vs. Rangers on October 31st
Hockey royalty was in The Greenhouse with Original Six team, the New York Rangers there to start a four-game road trip. Seattle is known for many things, and you can add Halloween spirit to the list! The arena was on-point with fan costumes. Around the building, fans could see anything from schools of fish and Ariel “in the depths” to nostalgia with Gumby and “John Snow White.”

Empty seats were more noticeable in the last two games of the homestand, especially in the limited view 200 level behind the press box “bridge.” But the northern windows were open again for outside onlookers for what has been nicknamed “Tightwad Terrace.” Kraken winger Jordan Eberle roofed a sweet backhand in the second, but NYR continued their hot streak. Norris winner Adam Fox had the game-winning goal, and Igor Shesterkin had 31 saves in a 3-1 Blueshirts victory.
Adult player and Kraken fan Travis Teffs is a California transplant but now lives in Puyallup. He and his fiancé have been to every home game since I met them above Section 14.
“After four games, the Kraken atmosphere is really fantastic. Fans are loud. They’re starting to get more knowledgeable. People need to quit leaning forward (in their seats), but it’s par for the course. I love the arena- and this WaFd Bank Club with the private bar is my favorite part!”

While the team and home game fandom is a work in progress, the arena is one of my all-time favorites. Enjoy my photos of Climate Pledge Arena at Seattle Center over the last two weeks and this Instagram story for more from the first homestand. See you on Thursday! ⚓
