Kraken Hockey Fights Cancer

Every November, the NHL launches its Hockey Fights Cancer program to fight cancer through early detection and risk reduction. Virginia Mason Franciscan Health is proud to partner with the Kraken on this important campaign. Year after year, both on and off the ice, we inspire fans to get screenings, honor survivors, and educate the community on cancer prevention.

Heart screenings for young athletes

On Sept. 27, 2025, 202 athletes received free heart screenings at the Virginia Mason Franciscan Health Medical Pavilion at the Kraken Community Iceplex in Northgate. This event helped protect young athletes from sudden cardiac arrest—the leading cause of death in exercising youth.

In partnership with the Nick of Time Foundation, the free heart screenings included a family health history review, an electrocardiogram (EKG), and, when needed, an echocardiogram (ECHO), using testing protocols tailored for young hearts.
