After a long search, the Kraken have found their new bench boss. The team announced that Lane Lambert has been hired as the third head coach in franchise history. GM Jason Botterill released the following statement:
After conducting an extensive search, we’re thrilled to announce Lane as our new head coach. We cast a wide net for suitable candidates.

He was an integral part of the Capitals winning the Cup and the Islanders advancing to two straight Eastern Conference finals. We have full confidence in Lane to lead this team behind the bench.
