Watched the first pre-season game for the Seattle Kraken on TV

It was only a pre-season game, but the team was fun to watch with all the excitement of an expansion team, I think if they can keep that up it'll be a good first year.

Doing what Vegas did in their inaugural season might be a stretch but who knows?

I'll get...Kraken on it

sorry can't resist a dad joke opportunity, but it is a good idea to have a Kraken thread. There's a few games coming up this week.

in Chris Driedger and Philipp Grubauer.

Management was smart not taking an injured and aging Carey Price for mega bucks when those two were options.
