Kraken beats the Devil

A rare home victory albeit in OT.

Question: is Kraken singular or plural?

I love how a second year pro team is the best pro team in Seattle.

Maybe the Hawks and M's should take some pointers

How did they tank the season, by sticking with a horrible goalie?

It was how they applied recourses, they stockpiled draft picks and cap space as opposed to making the greatest effort that first season

I think they had a very good plan. They used the cap as a weapon and tool and it's paid off wonders for them. Nobody could have predicted this big of turn around. Kudos to Ron Francis. He's got this organization on the right track

Absolutely, there seemed to be a lot of disappointment last season that they didn't try to emulate the golden Knights entrance but I think it's been forgotten.
