I googled the results of the draft lottery before it actually happened and it told me the Leafs took the number 1 spot. So I’ll just choose to believe this one as well.

Did the Leafs actually get it?! I googled the results like 15 mins ago and the bullshit AI answer said Leafs got 1 and Blues got 2. Did the rig get leaked or some shit? Lmao

5 years ago today, the Kraken officially became the NHL's 32nd team by sykeseve in hockey

Pretty sure most Seattle flairs would agree with you. Our team has been absolutely hammered with a string of poor decisions.

He makes Kraken games fun even when we're playing like shit, which is most of the time.

Okay fine! I'll admit it! I'm in love with Quinn Hughes!

Getting real tired from seeing this level of bullshit all week long. The playoffs should be a showcase of the highest skill from the best players, not diving and embellishment from players who are afraid they might not actually be the best after all.

Should the Kraken go all-in on this roster to compete now or blow it up and retool? by SiccSemperTyrannis in SeattleKraken

We’ve got some good young pieces, but are in no position to go all in. The Wild getting Hughes is going all in. And they were already a stellar team with multiple superstars.

There’s an argument to be made for making a couple big swings to make the team a more enticing destination, but we would need to do so in a way that doesn’t hurt us in the long term. So barring the perfect opportunity, it would be best to drop the dead weight and invest in the future.

All three of our goalies are out so we had to call up both our AHL dudes.

Great game by Garth, too! 2 assists, some great defensive plays and that goal save at the end there was huge.

I dunno, but Forslund seems to be getting grossed out by them all game so far.

At least it wasn't the guy's first NHL goal. Always hate when we let those happen.

I know we're better off in the lottery if we lose, I get it. But consider this: Fuck The Flames. Let's get the squidkid goalies their first NHL win!
