The Seattle Kraken are cheering loud and proud for the Seattle Seahawks.

Before the NFC Championship game on Sunday, the Kraken arrived at Climate Pledge Arena wearing Seahawks jerseys, sweaters and hats to show their support.

Just four miles down the road, at Lumen Field, the Seahawks are preparing to play for a spot in Super Bowl LX.

Kraken captain Jordan Eberle and defensemen Jamie Oleksiak and Vince Dunn walked in with Seahawks jerseys while goalie Philipp Grubauer rocked a stylish Seahawks sweatshirt.

Defenseman Brandon Montour had on a Seahawks hat.

The Kraken beat the New Jersey Devils, 4-2, in the afternoon, and now have a chance to catch the nightcap playoff matchup.
