Seattle @ Vegas

[Sports Hernia]

First game.
Tomorrow 10/10.

Would like a point, would love a win.
It’s going to take an A+ effort, against the loaded Stanley Cup champs of last year.

VERY tough matchup, but you never know. Let's get a point, minimum. Hockey is such a long season. Then again, I love how it seems like they just finished a month ago and are already right back at it with a new season.

 

[Sports Hernia]

The Kraken schedule to start is pretty tough.
Just have to tread water until it gets easier.

They better have tightened it up and capitalize on Powerplays damnit lol felt like last yr too many Powerplays were wasted.

Edit: Wasted their 1st one ...And Wasted their 2nd one... These guys were ranked 21st last yr for power plays... and so far seems to be as bad if not worse on them this game. Ugh

They spend too much time “trying to set things up”.
Just shoot the damn puck and play for a rebound type goal.

One game, not gonna' lose much sleep over it. Vegas is a far superior team. For now. On to the next one.

I could agree more on the lack shooting. I find myself yelling at the tv "SHOOT IT!"
Nothing wrong with a good reality check to start the season.

Haven't heard how long Tanev is out. Howden with just a 2-game suspension for the illegal check to the head. Blindsided him with a shoulder pad to the side of the head.

Is there a concussion protocol in the NHL, similar to the NFL's?

 

[SoulfishHawk]

4-6 weeks, lower back injury. All because of a cheap shot by a cheap shot team.

 

[Hawker]

And only two goals through three games. Our scoring is non-existent.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

ROUGH ROUGH ROUGH start. Damn.

You can be young and suck and fans will be OK with it. At some point soon Wright and Evans will need to be playing big boy hockey.
