Mike Benton is in and live from the Kraken Ice Plex as the Kraken prepare to come back from the Olympic break. After what we've seen from the Mariners and Seahawks this past year, how confident are the Kraken in getting back to the postseason? Benton thinks they'll be buyers at the trade deadline.

Finally, are there questions that linger about Dan Wilson as a manager? Benton sees him eons ahead of the AL West when it comes to his leadership. In The Daily Power Play! Benton checks in on the Kraken in the Olympics and gives a view of how Team USA is faring. Brandon Montour, Kraken Defenseman sits down with Benton to talk about this season's squad.
