The NHL's newest addition officially has a name: The Seattle Kraken. The team made the shift from "Seattle NHL team" to the Kraken on Thursday during an unveiling event at their future home, the Climate Pledge Arena.

The colors of ice blue and navy with red accents plays into the the franchise's nautical theme while the logos pay homage to the city by including the Space Needle.

"Release the Kraken" and "Let's get Kraken" are already catching on as slogans for the league's 32nd franchise, which will start playing games next season.
