Frank Seravalli on Reporting NHL Scoops, Unveiling the Kraken Expansion Draft (and Getting Heat for it), and What to Expect at the Trade Deadline

In an honest and direct conversation about breaking news in the NHL, Frank Seravalli revisits his scoops around the Seattle Kraken Expansion Draft and reveals how one executive made a persuasive case about where he may have crossed the line. Seravalli’s candor about journalism, competition, career choices, sourcing and style is a rare look inside the approach of hockey’s news-breakers. Frank also gives fans a preview of potential moves before the NHL trade deadline and discusses the impact of the Dougie Hamilton and Seth Jones contracts on the market for prospective free agents.
