    Chris Driedger had three years of happy memories at the Scotiabank Saddledome, where he won 88 games for the WHL Calgary Hitmen between 2011-14.

    Wednesday night, he added one more.

    Completing a 19-month journey between NHL starts for the Seattle Kraken, Driedger made 37 saves - every one of them necessary in a 2-1 victory over the Calgary Flames.

    Driedger spoke after the game about his lengthy recovery from an ACL tear in May, 2022. Alex Wennberg, who notched the game-winning goal, and coach Dave Hakstol also met the media for this Kraken Reaction video.
