Seattle Kraken games moving to Tegna-owned stations, Prime Video

The Seattle Kraken, an NHL team, has decided to switch from cable to broadcast television and streaming for their games. Starting in the 2024-25 season, their games will be shown on Tegna-owned KONG with some simulcasts on KING 5 in Seattle. Viewers in Washington, Oregon, and Alaska can also stream games with a Prime Video membership at no extra cost. The move marks a shift from Root Sports Northwest, the previous broadcaster for Kraken games. The team's owner expressed excitement about expanding viewership options for fans. Additionally, key broadcasters are set to return for the upcoming season. This decision makes Seattle the first NHL team to partner with Amazon for streaming services and follows a trend of teams moving from regional sports networks to broadcast television.
