Honestly I'm sure the game was fine and I'm glad we came back but I ended up just turning it off. Like yeah I'm glad Wright and KK did well but god we f***ing suck and I just could not be bothered to watch our absolutely anemic offense. After the 2nd period I was just out.

I wonder what Francis and ownership feels about wins like these. This was like the Sabres game where they play like crap for majority of the game and still managed to pull out a win by a 3rd period effort. Do you feel happy? Relieved? Annoyed? All of the above .. LOL.

Beating a terrible team by giving a 15 minute effort does not scream “playoff push”! It’s semi sweet, but the aftertaste is awful, and lasts longer.

Pittsburgh was so unimpressed by the collapse they put Jarry on waivers today

Yikes, that's an insult to the Kraken

I guess I was a little surprised. I didn't peg the Oleksiak or second Tolvanen goal directly on Jarry, more collective defensive collapses. Maybe filed them under the heading I like to call "The Grubauer File", where I would have said "that's one of those where you'd really like the goalie to make a big save...but they didn't".
