The season started on December 3, 2022, and their home opener was on December 9, 2022, against the Saskatchewan Rush. That game was First Responder Appreciation Night.[1]

The 2023 NLL Stadium Showdown, the first outdoor NLL game, was held on March 4 at Snapdragon Stadium, between the Las Vegas Desert Dogs and the San Diego Seals.[2]

On September 13, 2023, team captain Brodie Merrill announced his retirement from professional lacrosse.[3] His number (#17) was retired at the beginning of the 2024 Seals season.[4]
