It's hard to believe we can score eight goals in a game and two games later chalk up a total of one goal in two losses. Just watched a highlights package of the game, and whoever compiled couldn't find a single Kraken scoring chance in the first two periods.

It’s because they weren’t there. It was the worst game of the season.

I’ll admit though, Grubauer was better after that first goal. That was terrible, but at least he improved.

Grubauer looked solid in the 3rd honestly. The Senators played an aggressive physical game against them, at least what I saw, and the Kraken just seem to shrink against that and don’t seem to know how to counter it.

Well unless the Kraken are shooting the lights out or other teams defenses are handing them goals, they're not that hard to play against.

The only thing happening offensively is from the outside and shots from the blueline while Francis has assambled a forward group that doesn't have high end/elite talnt while also not being able to go net front, stay there and make it hard on other teams goales/defenses.

That's why they keep on cycling like crazy(in season four) but can't generate much trouble for the other team.

Anyways, the Kraken play in Boston in about four hours.
Let's see what happens there.
