Edm @ Seattle

[Sports Hernia]

This is going through be one of those tough games that I’d be happy with a point, ecstatic with a win in regulation. Kraken are going to have to score a lot and often.

They need to reclaim the mojo they had before the All Star break! Or maybe the turning point was when they traded for Megna from the Sharks. That's about when I noticed Kraken starting to fall off a bit. IT'S MEGNA'S FAULT! OK, probably just a coincidence, unless he has weird negative vibes in the locker room or something. Speaking of Megna, I haven't heard anything about him since that trade. Wonder if he's contributed at all as a Krak.

 

[Sports Hernia]

Megna is playing but has contributed zero.
He’s not the main problem though, it’s the goaltending and defense that plays too loose. They also don’t apply pressure to the opponents defense when they have the power play, they spend way too much time trying to set up a goal with the perfect pass. Instead of just shooting. Seen too many PP situations where they get only zero or a shot or 2 off. That’s unacceptable.

At this rate.. they’re going to play themselves right out of even seeing the playoffs. Ugh

 

[Sports Hernia]

I hear Gru was pulled due to injury.
Might be time to call up Joey D who’s 1-0 with Seattle this year and or CD, last years back up.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Sounds like it was illness instead of an injury. Thank goodness, can't afford to lose Gru

 

[Sports Hernia]

Must have been “puck poisoning”.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

This team is more inconsistent than my x wife.........

They are also playing the better teams - Dallas, Edmonton, etc, who are all in playoff contention.
