Seattle @ Boston

[Sports Hernia]

Going to be a tough game.
I’d be happy with a point, ecstatic with a win.

 

[Ruminator]

Big-time ecstatic!

It is an interesting test of a game. As most hockey fans know, Boston is skating on air this year.

Kraken up 2-0 after 2 periods, Jones has been a brick wall in net. Need another 2 goals by Seattle to make me feel more comfortable.

 

[Ruminator]

Very impressive win against the team with the best record. Now on to the team with the worst record.

 

[Sports Hernia]

3-0 Seattle victory. Martin Jones standing on his head.
Might be the biggest win in franchise history.

Wow! Great win. It's really amazing how well they're doing this year when you look at all the individual stat categories and you can't find a Kraken anywhere remotely near the top of the list.

It’s because they play as a team. They may score 5 goals or more and no one will have more than one goal in that game.

There’s only one hat trick in the 1 plus season, and that was Eberle last season. Though I think as Matty Beniers gets more experience, he’s going to be a frequent multi goal a game scorer.

Yep. The recent game where Kraken scored 8, it was from eight different players. Not real unusual in baseball, but seems a difficult feat to accomplish in hockey. That's the Kraken -- a team where anyone is a threat to score. And I'm guessing you can probably count on one hand the number of games this season where a Kraken player scored 2.

And tomorrow, the Bruins play Toronto Maple Leafs, another top team. This is not a gimmie win for the Bs, so I'm looking forward to the outcome of that one.

I'm sure you guys did not get the Bruins feed, but our announcer was slobbering all over Beniers. You guys have a gem there and hopefully you guys will be able to keep him a long time. I don't want him in the Eastern Conference.

I visited the Bruins HF forums. They were talking about that.
He’s from the Boston area right?

Not really. He did play hockey in D3 college New Hampshire, so he may have been a Bruins fan. He is originally from Illinois.

Ah ok. Thanks for that information.

Beniers was born in Hingham Mass. His family was in attendance at the game.

Good info. Maybe he gives us a hometown discount when he comes in free agency.

If Seattle doesn't empty the bag to make him a career Kraken, I will be pissed.

I don't blame you. The Bruins probably won't be able to afford him for years anyway. We are completely up against the cap this season to the point we are sending our rotational guys down to recoup some money for a deadline move or two. No one has taken our bloated contracts off the waiver wire, at least yet.
