2023 Kraken Training Camp Thread

[gstommylee]

I wonder if skipping the two games on Monday was good for Melanson's suspension from last preseason.

either that or he served one from last years pre-season.

 

[gstommylee]

He did serve the first suspension last season's pre-season game on the 27 of september of 2022 and monday was the 2nd match suspended served. So he's eligible to play tonight.

Do you think 50-60 pts is a good target for him or I'm being a bit optimistic?

50-60 would be unrealistic for Kartye unless he was on the top PP and playing big minutes 5v5. Even 40 will be hard to get without a lot of ice time.

Like to see Kartye replace half of the goals lost with Sprong and Donato

Here We Go Kraken Here We Go!!!

Missing the Anthem of Canada

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Evans really impressed me and Wright looks a lot more comfortable with his game! Great pass to Melanson

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Goalvanen strikes...

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Superb passing by the Kraken especially Bjorkstrand and nice goal by the Goalvanen

 

[gstommylee]

seattle do not break up that tolvy gourde bjorkstrand line

 

[Hocktopus]

3-1 win over the Canucks, ET with 2 and Wright made a nice pass to set up Melly's goal

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

In the Offensive Zone I like my Wingers shooting from their Off-Wing...better angle and closer to the Net and puck can come off quicker

 

[Evgeny Oliker]

How did Melanson look last night? I saw he scored . Aside from that?

 

[The Marquis]

I’d like to know as well. We SW Washingtonians don’t get KONG. Hell i don’t think many people in the state outside of the Seattle metro do either.

 

[gstommylee]

The game is being replayed on root sports today and tomorrow just a FYI.

Melanson looks decent. Being a bit aggressive at times.

Thanks!

Imagine... Melanson being aggressive. Glad so see him doing well though.

Him and Cole almost starting to go at each other after a hit by Cole.

 

[The Marquis]

That's pretty solid. Curious who is going to make that squad at this point. It's pretty loaded.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

Melanson was my dark horse this season to crack the roster. But with Yamamoto and PEB on the roster and Wright in wait, probably does not happen any more. I still think he makes the Kraken sooner than later.

 

[The Marquis]

The depth of the Kraken prospects is pretty unreal. It's clogged up pretty good at forward.

 

[Price is Wright]

Lots of time when it comes to Ty Nelson. I don't expect him playing any meaningful NHL games until he's 22/23 but when he gets up and learns the NHL speed I'm confident he will be a contributor on the backend. Reminds me of a young PK Subban at times, not as dynamic of a skater but the similar size, big point shot, big drive, and loves to get the puck to the net. He will be a favourite in Seattle in a few years.

At the risk of being a whiny peepants (which, admittedly I am) I am bummed that I had no clue whatsoever about a KONG telecast. I checked both ROOT stations, CNBC, NHL channel, ESPN, but KONG? An NBC affiliate of KING TV? Since when do they broadcast sports?

And can someday tell me about future non-ROOT games? I tried NHL/Kraken "chat with us" and all I got was check out KJR. Oh, sure.

Okay, thanks Marquis. I did a deeper dive on the "schedule" submenu at both NHL and NHL/Kraken websites and I can see the detail you mentioned. Based on that it appears Wednesday's game in Vancouver will not be televised. That how you see it?
