The Seattle Kraken launch their NHL season tonight against the Anaheim Ducks, introducing new head coach Lane Lambert, their third in as many seasons. The Kraken seek to improve upon last year's performance, which saw them tie for the fourth-worst record in the league. Injuries have sidelined key players Ryker Evans and Kaapo Kaako, but fans will get their first look at 2024's No. 8 overall pick, Berkeley Catton. Meanwhile, the Seattle Mariners prepare for a pivotal Game 5 against the Detroit Tigers, aiming to reach the ALCS for the first time since 2001.

The Tigers will feature Tarik Skubal, the reigning Cy Young award winner, on the mound. The Mariners have yet to confirm their starting pitcher for the game. Coverage for the Kraken begins at 6:30 PM on KPUG, while the Mariners' coverage starts at 4:00 PM on KGMI. Both games carry significant local interest as Seattle teams aim for a strong start to their respective seasons.
