I encourage you to go to Killorn's goal and click "Goal Visualizer" to watch the dots. Tanev's inexplicable pass to Mintyukov will fry your brain.

Got away with a 'too many men' there

Terrible play when he just had to corral the puck and keep skating forward.

Yup, absolutely baffling who he thinks he's passing it to there?

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Going upstairs to listen to Fitz and Al while I fall asleep. Go Kraken!

Maybe Yanni? He was the closest. But not really close.

Just got to get it out of the zone there. Which was the most trivial play as well. Just keep going.

 

[Fuhrious]

Oof...another failed clear

 

[Kat Predator]

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Not ideal. Still feels comebackable, though.

 

[Toomany7pins]

Bad defense plus Joey snoozing a bit isn’t a good combo. Can’t let the opponent just camp his ass in front of your goal unchallenged.

Disappointing result so far, and if Seattle hits another post it I’m going to punch my TV. I’m slightly irritated.

 

[Fuhrious]

OK Daccord hasnt been super sharp tonight...

Now go watch what Charlie Lindgren for the Capitals did tonight.

Making this 30th ranked Ducks PP look awful damn good

 

[Fuhrious]

Gibson standing on his head, specifically against Beniers

 

[Kat Predator]

WTF was that?

Trucking our goalie is AOK?

 

[Fuhrious]

Bars match the eye test.

 

[Fuhrious]

I can honestly say I've never seen anything like this in 30+ years of watching hockey…




Not the fact Harkins runs Daccord, but that two Kraken players skate right past him laying on the ice afterwards and don’t do a single. f***ing. thing.

 

[Sad People]

The fact that nobody did anything about that is absolutely embarrassing. I knew we were a soft team but holy shit..

The excuse that he lost an edge was garbage. He went directly into the crease and was going to and did wipe out Daccord whether he lost an edge or not. That he fell at the last instant and whipped Daccord's legs out sending him head over heels was a clear injury risk. The way Daccord moved after that, it appeared he, in fact, was injured for several seconds.

Hopefully player safety nails Harkins. Dangerous and dumb play.

Yeah I don't know if I'd wanna go to war with teammates like these.

You never wanna rely on DPS to do the right thing.

 

[Fuhrious]

What the hell even WAS this game.

And btw, f*** the f***ing Ducks. Thought they left this chippy cheap shot shit behind when Perry left, but I guess not. Sucks about Carlsson but how about square up to Kartye clean at least, or give him a clean big hit? Nah, lets crosscheck him from behind.

And why does it take a full minute for the other 2 Kraken players to even enter the frame while 5 Ducks kick shit out of 3 Kraken players?

Seriously, if this is the team "identity" then tear it down and start over.

I missed this live as I had a game myself, but this clip is damning. As you pointed out, it took an eternity for the other Kraken players to get there, and they sure as hell didn’t arrive in a bad mood. A young player receives a dirty hit, a teammate is pummelled while down, and the response is to be softer than butter. This is more embarrassing than the score. I’m not saying goon it up, but grab a Duck and rag doll them. Send a message that this is a team not to be messed with.
Instead, this?

 

[Fuhrious]

100% that clip and the Daccord clip are way way more embarrassing than the score

 

[kihei]

At least Wright did his fair share of fighting back.

 

[Kevinsane]

21st overall after dropping two straight to the 29th, and playing like garbage. I fear the Kraken becoming the Mariners, selling hope without a reason to be hopeful.
