Just noticed making this thread that I referred to Chicago as the "Blackhawk" in the title of the last one, as if there was only one of them.

Saturday matinee? Say less 😮‍💨 Here’s what it’ll take for the #SeaKraken to make it four in a row → bit.ly/3GE111624

The #SeaKraken have recalled forward Ben Meyers from the Coachella Valley Firebirds.

With the game tomorrow against the Rangers, seems like Bylsma could be playing 4d chess on which goalie is stronger into which matchup? Or maybe I'm overthinking his approach to it?

Hey Mods, any chance you can ask your site admin overlords if they could add BlueSky to the list of Approved Media Sites for embedding? If I can embed media from WorldStarHipHop, surely BlueSky passes muster?

per Stefan Rosner, Sorokin is in net for the #Isles for Saturday's tilt with the Kraken. https://x.com/stefen_rosner/status/1857526345993245153?t=OErp5QbIrRdGYxhSOmPJow&s=19 Grubauer is rumoured to be in the net for #SeaKraken, but this is not confirmed yet.

Dan Bylsma says Jordan Eberle will not be playing this weekend and that Daniel Sprong will be skating at KCI this afternoon #Seakraken

Let's go, Kraken! I'll be at a work conference during the game so I will be less annoying than usual.

 

[kihei]

Bah. Going to have to catch the game on replay. Go Kraken.

 

[Fuhrious]

I'm breaking out the WC jersey for the first time in a while. I don't typically like wearing sports jerseys because I feel like a goober wearing them in public at my age, but today's a lazy Saturday matinee so I'm busting it out.

TLDR: If the Kraken lose, jersey scapegoat online.

 

[Fuhrious]

D'accord starts, setting up the sweet Shesterkin/Grubauer showdown tomorrow. Can't wait.

Sprong draws in also, haven't seen who he's paired with yet though. Gourde/Kartye/Tanev still together.

OK looked like Tolvenen/Wright/Sprong

 

[Fuhrious]

Super sloppy in the defensive end so far and D'Accord isn't looking super sharp either.

 

[Fuhrious]

Tanev and Gourde with the jammy goal, so nice. Gourde with his first of the year, you could see the grin on his face from outer space.

 

[sigma six]

Am out at the coast storm watching today - scored already eh?

 

[Fuhrious]

Yikes that's a weak tripping call on Dobson, but we'll take it?

I keep forgetting Patrick Roy is the Islanders HC

Sprong with Stephenson, Schwartz, Montour and Bjorkstrand on PP1

PP zone entry has been shocking, just dump it in ffs

 

[Fuhrious]

Yeah not a great PP

A PP goal would have been nice there, Islanders have had way too many good looks to think they could easily have one or two here.

 

[Fuhrious]

Yeeeeah, like I said...you could see that coming. Why the hell is Pulock walking in between the circles unmarked before hammering that bomb? Tighten it up, guys.

Good breakdown by Olczyk, Schwartz breaks his stick and goes to the bench for a new one, leaving Pulock wide open.

 

[Fuhrious]

Not their best period, but also not their worst. Gourde/Tanev/Kartye line definitely flying.

 

[Fuhrious]

I love these from Davy Jones' Locker Room over on BlueSky...

Look at how Yanni Gourde parks himself in front of the net and makes the goal happen. #SeaKraken

I didn't know Brock Nelson is related to Dave Christian and Bill Christian both Gold medal winners for the USA...actually their first 2 in 1960 and 1980...And the Christian made sticks from way back when were manufactored by the eldest Chriatians...who knew

The Kraken are better than what I've seen thus far

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Like the puck movement on the PP there

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Oleksiak had a man high,shite

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

I liked that Olczyk talked about Bill Christian and referred to him as Hockey Royalty...and he has kept his teeth which is a real accomplishment too

 

[Fuhrious]

I’ve switched over to listening to the game due to errands. Sounded like a scrappy low event period where the Isles had the better of the chances, which is honestly exactly the game the Isles play. Hope the Kraken come out with a little more fire in the 3rd.

Davy Jones’ Locker Room (@davyjoneslr.bsky.social)

After two, we are tied at one. Don't love the way Seattle played that period, especially toward the end. Daccord sensational as usual, with a +1.66 goals saved above expected so far (Moneypuck). 1-1 2nd intermission #SeaKraken

[Fuhrious]

Short bench, Beniers line getting double shifts while Wright line sits

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

I'm all for a penalty shot and 2 minute penalty on a scoring opportunity like the hook on Beniers so teams don't take the "good" penalty

And the Christian's will be ecstatic

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Gfeat pass by Beniers and the McCann man can and does!!!

Oops it was Bura with the great pass
