Yep... part of me wanted to see him shoot, but other part knew there was way too much time left and this game would see it bite us if he missed
57.3% xGF 5v5. I wouldn't say they played "poorly." But as @Myt1 pointed out with the Sens last game, they seem to have a bit of trouble with tight-checking teams like the Kraken. Hopefully Orlov and Hathaway can help out in that regard.
I was kinda hoping to see Hathaway come out of the stands to take down Gourde.
Also they got one abbreviated power play. They were playing against the zebras as well tonight.
They’re going to get the short end of the officiating stick in the playoffs like they do every year they gotta play through it.

This was such a great game. 11 goals, 11 different scorers. Wow. And Seattle is totally for real as a team. I wonder if Marchand gets suspended?
I am wondering the same thing given his previous slew-foot suspension from late 2021. Might draw some extra scrutiny because Marchand and repeat offender.
I think it’s a lot less likely to lead to a suspension when you’re both wrapped up engaging in extracurricular activity already. Functionally, it’s not a shitload different than the hip fulcrum Chara used to use when slamming people to the ice after fights.
Having said that, the suspension over/under is probably like 7.5 games.

My complaints are that there are too few bathrooms on the lower level and that the arena noise could be turned down like 25%.
That could be related to the fact that I’m turning 40 on Monday.
Good fans, good decor, good theme though.
That will probably go down as the best sports game I’ve ever attended. Being in the shot lines behind the glass is fun.
