Seattle Kraken to host opening celebration of Community Iceplex in September

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Seattle hockey fans will be able to skate at the Seattle Kraken’s practice facility starting on Sept. 10 as part of the team’s grand opening of the Kraken Community Iceplex, which the team has dubbed the “lair” for Kraken fans.

Located in the redeveloped Northgate Mall, the Iceplex contains three league-sized ice rinks, team store, staff offices and 32 Bar & Grill.

The grand opening celebration is scheduled for Sept. 10-12. It costs $15 to reserve a spot to skate — an additional $5 to rent a pair of skates — and fans must register online.

Additional events during the public opening include a free figure skating performance from local skaters, free hockey lessons for first-timers and, for more skilled players, a free skills session. Families can also stop by the “Off-Ice Family Fun Zone,” where there will be games and photo opportunities.

1. I'm seeing more Kraken gear over here in Idaho. I had to be the first kid on the

block last fall and got all kinds of compliments on my hoodie. I think they will go over well. I can't wait.
