GDT: GAME 56: Toronto Fig Leaves (32-19-2) at YOUR SEATTLE KRAKEN (23-28-4). 7pm PST

[Bear of Bad News]

Dammit, Cups.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

4 minutes c'mon

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Have another beer, Leafs fans in the stands gloating.

 

[kihei]

And there is the second goal, and we still have the second two-minute penalty to kill.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Who the hell is Bobby McMahon?

 

[sigma six]

Well, they need to stay out of the f***ing box.

 

[kihei]

I'm having trouble finding an adjective to describe the Kraken play that period, so I might as well go with "inexplicable." The team didn't look ready to play the game and there was no cohesion on any level.

 

[The Marquis]

Oh course, if Washington state would like to become Canada's eleventh province, I'm sure we could rustle up some booers on short notice.

Probably the most likely state to do so. Hell, soccer season is coming up soon, thr two Us based northwest clubs anthems might get interesting.

 

[kihei]

Who the hell is Bobby McMahon?

I had to look him up. A 28-year-old mediocre journeyman forward (112 NHL games) who uncharacteristically has popped 17 goals this year. Just what the Leaf's needed, more scoring.

 

[The Marquis]

Man, looking at the stats of player on other teams bums me out.

Man, looking at the stats of player on other teams bums me out.

Stats can be deceiving, though. Going into tonight's game, Seattle and Toronto had scored the same number of goals, 165. How many punters would have guessed that?

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Bench minor, let's GOOOOOOOOO

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Dang, what a glove save by Stolarz.

 

[kihei]

Sad-ass power play with most of the time the Kraken just passing the puck along the periphery waiting for god-knows-what to happen.

 

[kihei]

What does Wright have in common with Ovechkin, Bedard, Barkov, Crosby, and Pasternak? The same number of power play goals: 6. Which leads the Kraken, by the way.

 

[The Marquis]

Did I do the girl emoji right? “Wow”?

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Bjork held his own against the meathead Benoit.

 

[kihei]

Good for Bjorkstrand. Can't let some bozo do that.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

I think Daccord's right here.

 

[kihei]

That was pretty damn close either way.

 

[sigma six]

Fluky af goal even if it counts.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[kihei]

I don't have a problem with the call. That was like hitting a drop shot in tennis. The (in this case) stick starts high, but the actual contact point is much lower.

 

[kihei]

Finally a display of anger from our D in front of the net. A rare sighting.

overall I think the Kraken have more talent and skill but for some reason they just can't get it together...perhaps players should be playing for their jobs
