GDT: WC! Kraken vs Golden Knights, 01 Jan

[Renopucker]

I guess I'm shocked at the ice conditions. They had perfect conditions to lay it down, including having the roof closed to keep the drizzle off. I'm not an expert, but the slowness looks to me like the ice is too thick..it doesn't take much additional depth to make it tough for the pipes to keep the top surface cold enough. I'm sure this will be a topic of discussion after the game.

Ice can be the Krak's advantage, just keep it simple and let the bounces frustrate the Knights.

Every winter Classic has ice issues. This is far from the worst.

Yeah, was literally typing this very thing. Something that seems to come up every WC, for one reason or another. Think at this point it's just part of doing business.

Yanni you beautiful s.o.b.

 

[The Marquis]

Yanni finally got shook off the cobwebs! Great time to do it

Didn't see the Gourde goal hope it was a beauty

Stole the puck from a lone Vegas D, got a bouncing shot off that Thompson tried to swat away but missed, and Yanni buried the rebound.
All hustle.

That mask on Logan Thompson is a thing of ugly.

Oleksiak needs to pay a little more attention. Get Joey that shutout you nincampoops.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Eat pooh Vegas

 

[Bear of Bad News]

That's nine, baby! Missed you guys but wasn't going to dare coming in with the shutout going.

One wonders if the score would have been closer had Thompson's gloves been on the correct hands.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

In a year or two the Vegas won't be Golden Knights as they grow old together without much in a way of young depth and Stars...GMFrancis knows how to build a team...

Nice...a typical Gourde goal of hustle,pressure and 2nd effort

JOE-Y! JOE-Y! JOE-Y!

He's the goaltender of the Future...

Yanni you beautiful s.o.b.

He’s a handsome buck for sure when he does that.

Nice to see the Kraken beat the Golden Turds

 

[Renopucker]

Yanni was my guy in Tampa and he's still my guy. His line was the best on the ice today.

You are truly a team player. Probably front runner for forum MVP at this point. Keep up the good work my friend.

They can show that Daccord glove save on Eichel as many times as they'd like - show it all the way up to the start of the Sugar Bowl for all I care.

 

[Kevinsane]

Nationally televised game and the Kraken shut out the defending Stanley Cup champions.
What a way to start 2024!

If the other lines could get going again man this team will go far...and if they can avoid the Inj bug

 

[Toomany7pins]

I think we found our 90%+ goalie!


Joey D is in the house!

Thank goodness for Joey Daccord...he learned his Goaltender lessons well from Papa Daccord in Switzerland and USA I imagine

Eichel had many opportunities throughout the game and Joey had his number
