Jacob Melanson Re-Signed for Physicality | Seattle Kraken News
Jacob Melanson just locked in a three-year, $4.35 million deal — that’s $1.45M/year — thanks to his relentless physicality and energy on the ice. At 23, he delivered 188 hits in just 36 games last season, disrupting opponents more than scoring goals (only 2 goals, 3 assists).

This move signals the team’s commitment to hard-nosed hockey — where grit matters just as much as goals. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow…
