The Seattle Kraken debut their bioluminescent alternate jerseys against the New York Rangers in this Halloween edition of Locked on Kraken. Host Erica L. Ayala breaks down the highly anticipated "Abyss Awakening" game while diving into critical injury updates from assistant coach Lane Lambert on Kappo Kakko, Jared McCann, and Ryan Winterton. 

The episode features an extensive King5 segment showcasing the custom mask designs of all three Kraken goalies. 

• Joey Daccord reveals his collaboration with artist Shifty, requesting "big S's that float in the dark" alongside Seattle landmarks and personal touches. 
• Philipp Grubauer discusses his Dave Art-designed masks featuring fly fishing and ranching imagery, plus a special indigenous-inspired piece by local artist Preston Singletary representing the Coast Salish people. 
• Matt Murray keeps it simple and symmetrical with Steph Bergeron's designs. All three have special glow-in-the-dark masks specifically for the alternate jersey games. 

Erica delivers a comprehensive Rangers game preview, highlighting key statistical matchups. The Rangers enter 5-5-2 with significant advantages in faceoffs (53.9% vs 45.1%) and goals against (2.42 vs 2.80), but the Kraken hold the edge on power play efficiency. She emphasizes the need for Seattle to attack early rather than feel out opponents, praising Brandon Montour's recent performances where he "willed himself to win the puck" in 50-50 battles. 

The episode also addresses Ryan Winterton's defensive value in Lane Lambert's system, upcoming PWHL Seattle jersey reveals, Seattle Storm coaching announcements, and Erica's extended November coverage schedule leading up to Milano Cortina 2026.
