Kaapo Kakko looking forward to fresh start with Seattle Kraken

CHICAGO — Kaapo Kakko wants to focus on his opportunity with the Seattle Kraken. “I think I’m good in the zone, that’s my game over there,” Kakko said before the loss to the Blackhawks. That’s my game right now and I’ll try to bring it over here.” The 23-year-old Kakko was traded to Seattle on Wednesday for defenseman Will Borgen, a 2025 third-round pick and a 2026 sixth-round pick. He said Tuesday he was surprised by coach Peter Laviolette’s decision, calling it “easy to take the young guy and put him out.” By Wednesday night, Kakko was on a new team. New chance for me.” New York has dropped 11 of 14 games going into Friday night’s contest at Dallas, including five of seven since trading captain Jacob Trouba to Anaheim.
