Seattle Kraken Form

Seattle compiled a 46-28-8 regular season record to finish fourth in the Pacific Division.

That was enough for the two-year-old franchise to make the playoffs for the first time in team history.

The Kraken lost their final two games of the regular season, but did enjoy a five-game win streak prior to those losses.

Seattle beat Arizona three times during that run, 8-1, 4-2 and 4-1, while also downing Vancouver 5-2 and Chicago 7-3.

They could not keep it going until the end of the regular season though, following a 4-1 defeat in Vegas with a 3-1 home loss to the Golden Knights.

Colorado Avalanche Form

Defending champions Colorado put together a 51-22-9 record to clinch top spot in the Central Division.

The Avalanche went on a tear over the final several weeks of the regular season, winning 16 of their final 19 games.

They enjoyed a five-game win streak as part of that run earlier this month, which started with a 5-2 home win against Dallas.

Colorado then went out on the road to beat San Jose twice, 4-3 OT and 6-2, before beating Los Angeles 4-3 and Anaheim 5-4 in overtime.

The Avalanches’ streak ended with a 2-1 overtime loss to Edmonton, but they rebounded quickly to beat Winnipeg 4-2 and Nashville 4-3.
