GDT: Kraken vs Predators, 16 March

[Fuhrious]

No word on Dunn at the time of posting.

Chance to win actually went down a % when they announced Grubauer as the starter…?

The headline says “fairly important” but that % doesn’t seem to move that much on a win.

There's no need to rush anything for Dunn or Schwartz.
So it's good to see the team doing the right thing as it also gives Evans playing time.

Overall I'm just hoping for some kind of excitement in this one and not another boring game like the ones against Winnipeg or Washington.

Let's go Kraken, Even if the odds are prohibitive, winning games is more fun than losing them.

Damn those pinball goals.

Five shots on goal in the first period is pretty pathetic.

If you stick your arms up in the air, you can be pretty sure a tripping call quickly follows.

Hopefully the Kraken convert on this penalty

Andre is the Man!!!

There's a guy that's been sorely needed all year. Wasn't to be.

Man, watching this team and it's style of hockey....

I wont even pretend to have been motivated to watch this one, having worked all day yesterday and knowing I had to work all day again today. I'm basically boxscoring it for the rest of this season, having been thoroughly demotivated by GMRF's inexplicable inability to get literally anything for Schwartz or Driedger at the TDL. Far far better apparently to pay Cale Fleury $800k to spend the entire season in CV while giving Schultz's expiring contract bottom pair 12 minutes a night, I guess.

I'm a huge Burakovsky supporter but ffs paying him $5.5m this season for 33gp, 4g and 8a makes me think I fell into a parallel universe.

@Fuhrious

Burky has actually been pretty good(or at least creating stuff) lately and also finally seems to be able to find the net again.

Though, we're currently allowed to experience top six center Kyler Yamamoto which tells you how talented this team currently is.

I thought about that last night, as I glanced at the boxscore just before going to bed. They were losing 3-1 midway through the 3rd period, I saw the one goal was from Burakovsky and thought "Oh cool, now that the games dont matter he's going to start putting up points..."

Basically padding his stats in garbage time, for all intents and purposes. Then I saw this morning he's on 4g/8a and almost spit out my coffee. Didnt realize it was that bad.
