Not only did the Kraken miss the playoffs again, but similar to a tepid inaugural season, they were out of contention before the season was half over. During the same December-January stretch where Seattle was heading off on a record run in 2023-24, backstopped by rising star goalie Joey Daccord, they dropped 11 of 15 in 2024-25.

As another disappointing season begins to wind down, the Seattle Kraken will once again not compete for the Stanley Cup. Thanks to the St. Louis Blues extending their winning streak to nine games, the Kraken have officially been eliminated from playoff contention.
