Jesus christ that might be in the top 10 worst periods of the year. Felt like I got a crink in my neck looking at the defensive zone for the entire f***ing period.

Fortunately the two girls in front of we were leaning forward and watching a movie on their phone. Blocking that debacle from my view
 
We're only down 2-1 after the worst period of the season. Let's relax here, we're not a good first period team.

In fact, we're literally the lowest-scoring first period team in the whole league. 40 goals for and 50 goals against in the first period. The second and third periods tell a much different tale: 76 and 71 goals for and 69 and 60 goals against, respectively.
 
Did the Kings broadcast have a different view of the 2nd Seattle goal? From what they showed on the Kraken broadcast it was not tipped, and the goal is still credited to Larsson. Forslund and JT Brown seemed to think it was one that should have been stopped.

I hope you're right. Unfortunately NHL scouting has a way of catching up to your weaknesses. Edmonton and Calgary must be licking their chops.

Comparatively, he’s fine on lone-wolf missions when he tries to recover on an odd man rush he created against himself. Objective: FIX THE PROBLEM.

But yeah he sucks at working with a unit.

Yeah, he is definitely going to make some smart one on one plays, but nobody is gonna know what the hell he is thinking or why he is where he is at.

The number one principle of defense is delaying the opposition. Buys time for your teammates to read and react, to sort their positioning and to get a better idea of what the attack is trying to do so you can defend it better. Durzi doesn't delay shit, he backs in too deep and gives up easy lanes. It just invites pressure, then his coverage once they set up a cycle is so poor that his teammates start to think about having to do more than just their jobs and you end up chasing the play the whole shift instead.
 
But honestly Danault was excellent with Iafallo in Kempe for a while. I'm assuming that's what's going to happen since Kopi was centering Moore and Arvidsson
