This team is so weird. They go on a run earlier in the year beating 3 teams that were tied for the NHL lead in points, then they lose like 12 of 13. Now they've won 3 of 4 including the #1 team in points.
Expansion teams are like that sometimes. I remember some real bad Seattle Mariners teams kick the crap out of some real good Yankees teams. I remember going to “ball night” in 1979 I was 10. The Mariners score 9 runs against Tommy John and the Yankees bullpen in the 1st inning. Seattle ended up winning 16-1. Lou Pinella had the only run for the Yankees a solo shot home run to dead center field. The Yankees were light years better than those fledgling Mariners teams.XxXdragonXxX":qu2m2lqj said:This team is so weird.

Gru was great and 2 timely goals helped. Great win against a damn good team.XxXdragonXxX":29lord4r said:Gru seems to be rounding into form. Great game tonight.

Nice game by Gru and we got an empty netter which are always cool to see.
Tough to get a game thread going for a struggling expansion team. I post at the HF Hockey Forums and the Kraken game threads usually have between 40-60 posts but usually the same 10 diehards posting there.Per game threads won't get alot of action in here will it?

You can say “our goalies suck” in only so many ways.
When they start winning the Kraken threads will be more popular. The NHL is kind of a different animal. The Diehards really love it but a lot of folks are “meh” about hockey. Team success will bring in more fans/traffic.
Yep. Went to Matty’s first game @ home where he scored his first goal. It was my first NHL game, it was a blast. It’s too bad that they are playing their best hockey right now at seasons end.I've enjoyed watching Beniers and Sprong. These last several games have been more entertaining to watch.
