GDT: Game 70: Seattle Kraken(38-24-7) @ Dallas Stars(38-19-13) - 5:30 p.m. PT / 8:30 p.m. ET

We just needed someone to lay up the puck earlier. Way, way too long with the shift.

 

[The Marquis]

Glad they got possession back at least

 

[kihei]

We can still get a second point here.

 

[Kat Predator]

REDEMPTION!

 

[CascadiaPenguin]

NICE!

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

What a move by Larsson. f*** off Dallas.

 

[brewski420]

Great play by the big cat!!!!

 

[The Marquis]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[The Marquis]

Larsson displaying his skill

 

[Scomerica]

Yasssss. Still effin heart attack stuff

 

[brewski420]

Huge win after all that!

 

[Scomerica]

The next 2 games are pretty much are playoffs. We don't win them and I think Nashville is in as the last wild card in the west.

Thank god they are away from home.

 

[kihei]

Yes, yes, yes. Larsson looking like Bobby Orr.

 

[Scomerica]

That was a huge huge win even if they made an arse of the end of regular time

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Hello from a cabin in Pierce County on my phone. Go krakens!

 

[kihei]

Was there ever any doubt?

 

[Kat Predator]

Just wanted to give a point to mess with the Wild, apparently.

 

[Scomerica]

I don't think I could handle a play off series against Dallas.

 

[kihei]

That play by Larsson could have saved the season. Now we won't be going into Nashville with our tail between our legs. What a game.

 

[brewski420]

Big + to Daccord. Four goals against isn't the story. He plays with confidence. Something our other goalies do not or have not lately.

 

[Kat Predator]

Dallas seems to always have an impressive number of loser points.

 

[kihei]

I don't think I could handle a play off series against Dallas.

If we get in the playoffs, it's all gravy to me. I'm just going to sit back and enjoy it and not fret too much about how deep we go. The Kraken have already had a great season regardless of what happens from here on out.

He has solid positioning. Solid technically. Reads the play well. Made some nice saves by coming out high, using the poke check, etc. Also seems to be very good with his stick.

I hadn't realized his numbers in Coachella were that good.

Wonder if he could be the answer. I'll cling to any good goaltending right now

Agreed but if we get in I'll still have a little hope and enjoy the series. It's the hope that kills you though, if we get swept then fair enough but if it's like those other Dallas games which were close heartbreakers then I'll no doubt be bummed

Great way to shake off the dissapointment at the end of regulation to still get the two points.

I guess with the unbeatable Joey(2-0) in net the Kraken couldn't lose this one.
Now let's get at least a split in Nashville and things are looking solid for us.

BTW: If we do end up making the playoffs I guess we'll need at least a three goal lead going into the final minutes playing 5 vs 6.
