The Seattle Kraken will hire Dan Bylsma to be their next head coach, reports Elliotte Friedman.
Bylsma was last in the NHL as a head coach during the 2016-17 season with the Buffalo Sabres. He’s been the head coach of Seattle’s AHL affiliate in Coachella Valley for the past two seasons, putting up a 94-32-18 record and advancing to the Calder Cup Final in 2022-23.
