The Kraken's replacement for ROOT Sports will be the Kraken Hockey Network, which is "set to produce games that aren't nationally televised for distribution on KING 5, KONG and select TEGNA, Gray, Cox and Morgan Murphy TV stations." Prime Video will "stream those games for Prime members in Washington, Oregon and Alaska as part of their membership cost." The Kraken are the "first NHL team to partner directly with the streamer." "SportsCenter" anchor Linda Cohn and Ian Furness will serve as KHN hosts, "joining the existing on-air talent, nearly all of which is returning." Cohn will "host at least 15 marquee games, while Furness handles the rest." When Cohn is hosting, Furness "will be involved in other ways" ( SEATTLE TIMES, 9/16 ).
