  1. Well it appears that my two-week-old daughter’s good luck has run out.

    So do I put her back in to recharge or what?

  2. Jones isn’t any better/worse than Gru.

    Our defense isn’t helping.

    Both statements can be true.

  3. Doubled them up on shots, and Allen made some plays (including the ridiculous knob save against Gourde). A bit too sloppy from the Kraken to feel totally fine with it, but we played better than the score indicated.

  4. i’m not saying this change is NECESSARY but if we added somebody named “jingleheimer schmidt” to the broadcast team, john would say “john jt jingerheimer schmidt” several times a day and that sort of fun differential thing could really provide a boost imo

  5. Congratulations Shane

    4 goals on 8 shots after second period won’t get er done. Jones looking like Gru 🤣

  6. Extremely frustrating game, but not in the typical way. Seattle played well on the PK but made absolutely bone headed mistakes at even strength. Burakovaky especially had a really rough game.

  7. Team is clearly not ready to seriously complete if this is how they’re going to play. Defense has regressed. Offense is allergic to shooting and is passing like shit. Goalies are a liability to be protected on a good night. Need to develop and add some top line talent before we’re going anywhere.

  8. Offense looked potent again. Defense largely stout, but the mistakes they made were whoppers. Very winnable game.

    Back on the road we go!

  9. Frustrating game.

    Lots of good opportunities that we couldn’t convert on. Bad defensive lapses leading to goals against. A meatball or two getting by Jones that he should have had.

    Upside is Wright’s first NHL goal(!) and improvement on the PK.

  10. Credit where credit is due: Montreal played incredible defense and they had the better goalie tonight by a mile.

  11. Does Allison have stats on Burakovsky turnovers? Because the 2nd MTL goal was a big turning point in the game. And I see this all too often. See Winnepeg game OT.

  12. This team needs better defense. Has been terrible lately and the offense can’t score 3 plus goal every night. Luckily they are on the road and this team is somehow better on the road.
