[RainyCityHockey]

After many months of no hockey, the third season of the Kraken is now upon us.
Just like in year one the Kraken will start the season on the road in Vegas but this time against the defending champion Golden Knights who were able to win their first cup in year six of their existence.

The Kraken will try to turn the cheers and celebration of the Vegas fans and team into tears and sadness by stealing this one in the Fortress.

Stats:

That's it.
We're back in action for season three of Kraken and certainly in for a wild ride.

Vegas will certainly want to win to celebrate their title and beat the next expansion team in order.

The Kraken will have to play a solid game all around in order to quite down the arena and hopefully get something out of this game given that they have a pretty tough ten game stretch to start the season.

Anyways, let's just enjoy this one and see where it leads us.

And as always....

IT IS THE DAY!!!!

 

[AarG]

Going against the defending champs is never an easy task. Kraken should be highly motivated for this one.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

Very nice. Here is to hoping another good season.

 

[Sad People]

Today is the day of all days that the season begins for the Kraken.

First and most certainly not the last,

Lets go Kraken!

 

[Toomany7pins]

We will need to play our A+ game and need “playoff Gru”, regular season Gru, or pre-season gru won’t be enough tonight. Defense needs to clear the puck.

Kraken need to score early and often.

Would be satisfied with 1 point, would be ecstatic with 2.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Let’s Goooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

 

[kihei]

Been looking forward to this day for a while. Every season is full of surprises and I can't wait to find out what this one brings. Go Kraken!

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Connor Bedard's first NHL point comes on a goal from...Ryan Donato?

 

[EXTRAS]

When's this start

 

[kihei]

What a late start. Good thing I am a night owl.

 

[Sad People]

45 minutes after the scheduled start time...

Lets ruin their knight!!!!

 

[HawkNut]

If you’re a player on this team, you need to be motivated after a celebration like that.

If you’re a player on this team, you need to be motivated after a celebration like that.

Vegas does know how to do it up. Good on them. Now, go out and put a Blackhawk on 'em.

 

[kihei]

First priority: Not to get scored on in the first two minutes.

 

[HawkNut]

Vegas does know how to do it up. Good on them. Now, go out and put a Blackhawk on 'em.

It’s creative, but it should also be something to motivate an opponent.

Good luck to your team this season (except for when you’re playing Chicago )

 

[The Marquis]

Well, the Kraken are going to need to shoot a hundred times to win this game.

 

[kihei]

First shot on Grubauer and it's a goal, Deja vu feeling or what?

 

[Toomany7pins]

Well that sucked!

 

[Sad People]

Jesus.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Grubs has no chance on either goal.. The Kraken have had plenty of good looks and this should be 2-2.

 

[kihei]

Oh, my. Well, that's unfortunate.

 

[Sad People]

Grubs has no chance on either goal.. The Kraken have had plenty of good looks and this should be 2-2.

Yeah the first goal seemed like bad defensive play by Dumo

2nd goal you cant do much against.

 

[The Marquis]

The Kraken have looked like shit since that first goal

 

[Sad People]

I didnt pay attention to the cuts but is Kartye in the pressbox?
