I actually like it a lot. But then again, I like rum a lot so I'm probably a little biased. But it does sound kinda cool.

To add more information, the romance books are centered a hockey team called the Seattle Sockeyes.

Are they still going with that toothpaste colour scheme then? (ie. from this page) Doesn't seem to go that well with Kraken in my opinion, unless they are going to go with a cartoony look.
Maybe unofficially they can be the Seattle Super Squids.

Krakens would have been awesome.
Non plural team names drive me crazy.

Best possible choice! Stoked! Already my 2nd favorite team.
Really excited to be able to go to Seattle for a Kraken-Seahawks weekend.

I like it, could evoke some cool imagery and add a little fun.
The golden knights sounded way more ridiculous at first but now I'm good with it.
I also like Sea of Thieves, so I'm biased.

I like the name, but outside of being by an ocean, Seattle doesn't really have any connection to the Kraken

I am really surprised not only by how many of you actually like it but a lot of those who like it are genuinely excited about it. We are a diverse bunch, but you folks are weird!!

If they spelled it with a 'C' it would make more sense. Cracken
