In the first match, the team played at home, where they met the clear favorite Tampa Bay and were unable to give a worthy fight, suffering a crushing defeat with a score of 1:5. The entire defensive line showed its worst side, including the goalie, who could not cope with a huge number of shots, reflecting only 86% of them. Continuing to play on home ice, the Krakens fought Ottawa and this time were unable to even score, suffering a dry defeat (0:3). Remarkably, the hosts were able to make even more shots, but their implementation was zero.

Then Bylsma charges went to visit the outsider Chicago and couldn't even cope with the "hawks".
