GDT: Game 72(?) : Kraken vs Flames - Klapka might be an actual giant?

[Fuhrious]

Down 1-0 at the time of this post. I don’t understand why Fleury committed to that check on Klapka.

 

[Fuhrious]

I should say “attempted check” because he whiffed badly

He whiffed badly twice... This team needs some actual D men if they want to compete for a lofty WC spot next year.

Tbf it looks like the team got the message that points are not welcome anymore.

Really don't like the Flames. Really would like a 8-1 win here.

Puck was right in front of him (fleury), all he had to do was get a stick on it.

The holes in the defense are really glaring right now.

Why do we even watch these games? Why?

We can't get anything going on offense and the D is stinky as my dog's farts.

Dunn literally passes the puck to no one for one of the strangest turnovers of the year.

Meh. Don't underestimate him. He has show that he is a vast repoirtoire of turnovers this season.

 

[Fuhrious]

I stepped away at the intermission and am struggling to find the motivation to return to it.

 

[Fuhrious]

That was maybe the best 6-on-5 sequence they've had all season.

Kakko / Beniers / Nyman

I hear you man. We have a poopoo though, lets see how stinky it is. Is it a fart? Is it a shart? Or is it just full blown diarrhoea?

 

[Fuhrious]

I missed where Tolvanen became the team's leading goal scorer?

Thats just depressing.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

I dont know why McCann has been holding on to the puck for so long. With how good his shot is you would think he would just want to get the shots off.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

If I was Calgary I would be so miffed that the score is tied. LOL.

 

[Fuhrious]

They spent the first minute of the PP coughing up shorthanded chances then started working it around pretty nicely.

 

[Fuhrious]

Jfc I didnt realize when I made the joke in the post that Klapka is legitimately 6 foot 8!

 

[kihei]

Hope our power play clicks here because we are doing nothing five on five.

Schwartz ties it up. Hopefully things pick up from here.

 

[Fuhrious]

Kakko might have stole one there...

Tbh Calgary aren't much better than the Kraken. Francis is right about the Kraken being close to a WC spot (but in a cynical way), lots of weak/flawed teams around the WC spots.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

LOL. What the hell man. This game has been freaking weird.

Nice shot by Kartye though.

 

[Fuhrious]

Ooooooof Kartye playing fast counterattacking hockey like his callup. Where has that been all season?

There are 4, possibly 5 forwards that I'd easily slot in ahead of literally anyone on the Kraken roster. I dont know how anyone could argue they arent much better.

Because bad hockey is better than no hockey. After 35 years I finally have a team to watch. Totally get and share in the frustration though.

 

[Toomany7pins]

Gettin shots on Wolfe, just hitting posts hard. Should be 4-1.
