Wow, what a roadtrip.

Did you see Bobby win that game last night? What a player.

Yeah, he's a goal-scorer who could end up in the 30s. The boys blew a two-goal lead and still ended up getting the two points. They'll probably get whooped at Tampon Bay like they always do, but 5-2 is a hell of a good start.

I'll tell you the one guy in the league, that every time I watch him play, I'm just amazed how good he is.

That Naces from the Avalanche is crazy good. I wish he was on our team.

The Kraken have allowed the most "high probability" chances in the league so far but Grubauer and Daccord have been playing out of their minds. I wouldn't expect that to continue.

MY man, Bobby with another game winner in the shootout !!!

Woo hoo......

Don't like them giving up 3 goals in the final period though......Ryker Evans with a dumb penalty to keep them in it.

That's twice they've blown multiple-goal leads in the third period only to win the shootouts. Seriously, this team is actually 2-0 in shootouts. Blowing leads like that sucks, but at least they're still getting that second point and in both cases it was against Eastern Conference opponents so they weren't giving up a point within their own conference.

Very favorable schedule thus far, but you still have to beat the bad teams.

Detroit was 2-0-2 in their last 4 since we beat them last time.

They're not a horrible team.

Another W by the kids against a tough Utah team. Lost momentum and got it back late.

Credit where credit is due....Ryker Evans with a key block late in the 3rd period that led to the Kraken's final empty net goal.

It's been fun watching good hockey again. Gritty win.

That's three times already they've blown a multiple-goal lead in the third period and still ended up with the two points, and in this case they won the game in regulation so they didn't give up a point to a Western Conference opponent. And this one was really surprising because the Mammoths (Mammoth is the stupidest singular team name ever, that's literally like calling a team the Chicago Bear or the Detroit Tiger) were dominating play.

They've really been fun to watch thus far, and the Times is giving them virtually no coverage. The game recaps being posted are from AP.
