Post-Game Talk: Game 26: Seattle Kraken (11-13-1, 4-7-0 Away) at Carolina Hurricanes (16-7-1, 9-2-0 Home) - 4:00 p.m. PT

[Bear of Bad News]

Today begins a streak that will be so monumental, we'll reminisce about it ten years from now.

One!

 

[kihei]

A bit of a head scratcher, but I'll take it. The winning streak begins.....

 

[Fuhrious]

I dunno, that result almost creates more questions than answers

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

To borrow a famous line from John Forslund...That's Hockey Baby!!!

Who were the Kraken players that sat tonight?

 

[Fuhrious]

How in the hell do you beat Carolina in their barn but drop two to f***ing San Jose, for starters

 

[Dowisetrepla]

Hockeys a funny game! Went to Canes game back in October, Kraken were totally outclassed. Complete 180 tonight, will take it!

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Oh how I wish they would move back. Always had a soft spot for Whalers.

Our defense was so burned.

That Whalers Logo has to be one of the best in Sports history

 

[Fuhrious]

Cant say I love that for Wright

Was listening to the game on the radio. Sounded like the other team scored a goal in the 3rd to make it 3-2 them.


Was I halicinating because when I got to the place I was going it was 3-2 Seattle.

It was goaltender interference.

Ah ok, that makes sense. Thanks. The radio team is all over the map at times, and was between the car and the casino.

Having a hard time listening to ECH’s post-game. The hosts are fine, it’s the chat saying things like “it was worth it to drop 3 straight to win that one”

Uhhhhh no it wasn’t

I’m trying to keep a level head about this. It was a good game for Seattle, but so was the game against Montreal to start that road trip, and what happened on the rest of the trip?

Fool me once…?

I like their podcast and live post games and listen regularly, but some of that community are the people who are the same ones you mentioned that you run across elsewhere defending Grubauers play “because he’s such a nice guy” and reporting you for saying anything critical of a player. Dylan even half placated to the comment (boo!) but I like that RJ was like “no way, I was in San Jose, this doesn’t make up for what I saw”. I actually highly dislike negativity… unless it’s warranted and it sure has been lately when the Kraken are the subject matter. I’m glad those two have been forced to make some harsh judgments of the team lately, because it was unrealistically positive and bread comments like the one you mentioned. Their show is still great.

This is part of why I don’t use social media at all and why this has recently become the only chat forum of any kind that I use. Yes… you all are literally the only people I communicate with online.

Good win and good effort by the guys.

Might have played Carolina at the right time with them having some trouble as of late as well.

It's called being a mid team.

You sometines win games against teams like the Canes and go, wow, they could do something.
Of course just to then turn around and lose to the San Jose etc.

They're just not talented enough to consistantly get it done and that's why this team is going nowhere.
