Live updates: Washington Capitals vs Seattle Kraken at Climate Pledge Arena

The Washington Capitals are back for Game 2 of their five-game road trip. Tonight they’ll face off against the Seattle Kraken.

The Caps won their first away game 3-2 over the Connor McDavid-less Edmonton Oilers despite being massively outshot and a weird Nachos Goal. Logan Thompson came to the rescue stopping 30 of 32 shots and tallying an assist on the game-winning goal.

Charlie Lindgren will jump back into the starter’s role for the first time since his injury and oppose Joey Daccord in net.

This game marks the first time two female coaches have opposed each other in NHL history.

The Capitals-Kraken game is airing on Monumental Sports Network2. Joe Beninati and Alan May will have the call. Puck drop is at 10:00 pm. Craig Laughlin is out due to a medical leave of absence. #LockerStrong.

1st Period

Puck is dropped.

Martin Fehervary picks the top left corner with Nic Dowd setting a perfect screen in front on Joey Daccord. The Kraken are challenging the goal for offside at the 4:06 mark.

No goal. The call on the ice is reversed upon review.

Six minutes in, the Kraken have no shots and the Caps have 6.

Capitals go six whole minutes without a shot, though a great shift from the third line gets them going again.

Daccord stops Andrew Mangiapane on a clean breakaway, going to the splits to stop him at the post.

Connor McMichael is stopped on a semi-breakaway down the left wing as he tries to go five-hole on his backhand. He’s shaking his head on the bench. McMike has grown cold after a sensational start to the season.

After scoring 12 goals in his first 16 games, Connor McMichael has grown cold, only lighting the lamp five times in his last 31.
Coming into tonight’s game against Seattle, he’s on an 8 game goal-less streak.

At intermission: The score is 0-0. The Capitals lead the Kraken in shots 15 to 9 and are out-attempting them 20 to 18 at five-on-five — though the Caps had a real tough stretch in the middle of the period where did not much of anything.

2nd Period

Puck is dropped.

Big saves by Daccord on McMichael and Fehervary.

🚨 1-0 Washington Capitals. WSH Goal: Aliaksei Protas (20). Assists: P. Dubois (30). Time: 04:36.

Protas whacks at the puck out of mid-air and it somehow chunks past Daccord. Protas is now the Capitals’ player to score 20 goals this season including Alex Ovechkin and Tom Wilson.

Lars Eller can’t finish after a sensational pass by Ethen Frank. Frank already had two shots on goal in the first period, tied for the Caps lead.

John Carlson rips a shot off the post — Carlson again unlucky. Caps coming in waves here.

Jakob Chychrun hits the post about a minute after Carlson.

Kraken to their first power play after Taylor Raddysh trips Ryker Evans at the 13:12 mark.

At the 14:07 mark, Martin Fehervary gets hit in the face with a shot. He appears to be bleeding from the nose area as he skates off the ice and down the tunnel. The Kraken’s point shot ramped up after hitting Tom Wilson’s stick.

🚨 2-0 Washington Capitals. WSH Goal: Ethen Frank (3). Unassisted. Time: 18:05.

Ethen Frank scores on a rebound after he uses his insane speed to spring himself on a breakaway. He’s now got 4 points in his first 7 NHL games.

Charlie Lindgren stops Oliver Bjorkstrand with his glove on a breakaway.

At intermission: Caps lead 2-0. The Capitals are outshooting Seattle 25 to 13 and are out-attempting them 42 to 35 at five-on-five. Lindgren faced only three Kraken shots in the period.

3rd Period

Puck is dropped.

Tom Wilson with a huge hit on Kraken defenseman Joshua Mahura at the Capitals bench. John Hayden then starts whispering sweet nothings in Wilson’s ear but the two just chat. You can hear muffled screaming from angry players on the telecast.

Lars Eller stopped on a breakaway.

🚨 3-0 Washington Capitals. WSH ENG: Alex Ovechkin (22). Assists: T. van Riemsdyk (14), J. Chychrun (19). Time: 16:32.

That’s Alex Ovechkin’s 875th career goal. He’s 19 away from Wayne Gretzky. He won a puck battle in the defensive zone and fired the puck into Seattle’s empty net.

Capitals win 3-0. Charlie Lindgren gets the shutout. The Capitals have no lost in regulation since the start of 2025 going 9-0-3. Washington outshot Seattle 33 to 22 and out-attempted the Kraken at five-on-five 60 to 53.

Valter Walker vs. Marcin Tybura booked for UFC Seattle

Valter Walker vs. Marcin Tybura booked for UFC Seattle

Heavyweights will collide in “Rain City.”

MMAmania.com confirmed with multiple sources today (Thurs., Jan. 8, 2026) that No. 10-ranked Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Heavyweight Marcin Tybura will take on surging Brazilian prospect Valter Walker at UFC Seattle on Sat., March 28, 2026, inside Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Washington.

Walker (15-1) stumbled out of the gate in his UFC debut, suffering a loss to Lukasz Brzeski in 2024. Since then, however, “Clean Monster” has completely rewritten the narrative — and the UFC record books.

Walker opened 2025 by submitting Don’Tale Mayes with a heel hook (watch highlights), his second straight victory via the technique. Five months later, he followed it up with another first-round heel hook against Kennedy Nzechukwu (watch highlights), setting a new UFC record for most consecutive heel hook submission wins with three.

But he wasn’t finished.

At UFC 321 in Oct. 2025, Walker once again locked in a first-round heel hook — this time against Louie Sutherland — tying Rousimar Palhares for the most heel hook submissions (four) in UFC history while extending his own record for consecutive heel hook finishes (watch it).

A win in Seattle would almost certainly vault Walker into the Top 10 of the Heavyweight rankings.

Tybura (27-10), meanwhile, will be defending his No. 10 spot when he steps into the cage. The Polish veteran went 1-1 in 2025, handing highly touted U.K. prospect Mick Parkin his first professional loss at UFC London before suffering a quick knockout loss to debuting Ante Delija at UFC Paris (watch highlights), snapping a two-fight win streak.

Now 40 years old, Tybura is 5-3 over his last eight appearances.

Here are some other bouts currently scheduled for UFC Seattle:

Casey O’Neill vs. Gabriella Fernandes

Alexa Grasso vs. Maycee Barber

Nicolle Caliari vs. Carol Fiori

Around 200 protest fatal ICE shooting in front of Seattle’s federal building

SEATTLE, Wash. – There were at least 200 protesters that showed up in Seattle Wednesday night in what speakers called an “emergency protest” in response to the fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis Wednesday.

“We want justice, we want peace, we want justice, we want peace, we want ICE off our streets, we want ice off our streets…” they chanted.

After listening to speakers, protesters went on the march and circled the blocks near the Federal Building in Seattle.

Though the protest was organized on short notice, some protesters say they were compelled to come out Wednesday with urgency because they felt what happened in Minneapolis was a bridge too far.

What they’re saying:

“ICE has gone too far. We’ve felt this, we’ve known this for a long time. There have been people protesting,” said Raleigh Watts, protesting the ICE shooting. “We’ve been hearing the news. Today I came out because when I heard, it was my sign that a line has been crossed that I can’t stand anymore. So, I’ve come to say, ‘No ICE, you’ve gone too far’.”

“A lot of people out here are really, really angry, confused and sad, but I think we have what it takes to fight back,” said Sophia Van Beek, protesting the MN ICE shooting. “I’m certain there are going to be actions.”

Sophia says in order to make a difference, protesters need to create an actionable political program.

Members of law enforcement were in the area and helped to block off the streets during the protest and march. There were no clashes during this protest and it wrapped up at around 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday.

“I am proud of all the hundreds of people who have turned out tonight at the federal building in Seattle. I’m proud of the people who are in Tacoma that are protesting at the ice detention center and in Minneapolis and in cities across the country. This is not okay for ICE to kill somebody,” said Watts.

What’s next:

Some people at Wednesday’s demonstration said they were planning to organize more protests in the coming weeks.

Seattle groups join national protest against ICE raids following Minneapolis shooting

SEATTLE — Seattle activists are rallying to demand justice on Wednesday following the fatal shooting of a woman by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent in Minneapolis.

The Seattle Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression (SAARPR) and Seattle Against War (SAW) have organized an emergency press conference to protest the incident.

The event is scheduled for 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Henry M. Jackson Federal Building in Seattle.

Woman killed by ICE officers in Minneapolis; Mayor tells ICE to ‘get the f***’ out

The shooting occurred on Wednesday morning at the corner of 34th and Portland Avenue in Minneapolis. According to preliminary information, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said, the woman was sitting in her vehicle blocking the roadway when a federal law enforcement officer approached on foot. When the vehicle began to drive away, at least two shots were fired, and the vehicle crashed on the side of the road.

In response, emergency protests have erupted in Minneapolis and are expected to continue through Jan. 11.

The Seattle groups are joining the Legalization 4 All Network in calling for an immediate end to ICE raids and mass deportations.

They are also demanding justice and accountability for the woman who was killed, including the release of the name of the ICE agent involved and the names of all agents participating in such operations.
