A very Winnable game

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Wait, in the time it took me to come downstairs and put my office TV on, they scored?

 

[kihei]

Kempe scores on a power play. Bad start.

 

[kihei]

Another power play comes and goes without us doing much at all.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Where is Daniel Sprong when the Kraken need him...oh yeah in Detroit...hope GMFrancis brings him back the PP is lacking a 1-2 punch

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

My Seattle feed is glitchy

 

[kihei]

LA sure knows how to clog up the neutral zone. Our offense was pretty much missing in action that period.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Kraken have to get something going here

 

[kihei]

Good power play but no goal. Got three shots on goal; they only had four shots on goal for the entire game before the power play started.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Like to see Tanev and Lizotte go at it

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Well, poo.

 

[kihei]

2-0 lead seems huge in this game, given our troubles generating offense five on five.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Like to see Eberle go shortside on Talbot

Kraken don't look great,not sure why

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Criminy.

 

[kihei]

Turn out the lights.

Why have the Kraken been playing Gru almost exclusively...I know he was the numero uno at the beginning but...

Yeah, it’s kinda confusing. I would’ve expected a split of the remaining starts.

Statistically anyway, Daccord is third best in the league in both save % and GAA. Maybe starting Grubauer is Hakstol's subtle way of tanking.

That’s well within the realm of possibility. I keep telling myself that this season, and maybe next, is a step back before a big step forward, and that tanking, deliberate or not, furthers that outcome.
Still, the Kraken being shut out is not a fun viewing experience.
Edit: I jinxed LA.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Burakovsky gets one...good

 

[kihei]

Burakovsky scores on the power play....and we still have two more minutes of power play left.

If Hakstol's tanking then he's tanking himself toward the UnEmployment line

Good point.
