Kraken chasing playoffs over history as Preds matchup looms

Yanni Gourde didn't care all that much that the Seattle Kraken are on the verge of NHL history.

With a victory Thursday night in the opener of a two-game series against the host Nashville Predators, the Kraken would have the greatest second-season turnaround by an expansion franchise.

"I care about getting in the playoffs and getting in a place where we have a good game," Gourde said. "We want to go in the playoffs playing well."
