    In a season of horrid 2nd periods, that was a great one.

    I love how they were able to control possession in the ozone several times in the 2nd period. Against these teams that play that chippy hip pocket defense that’s a great equalizer keeping them on the ice for over a minute a few times.

    It’s so great having a 2nd line when your first line isn’t scoring

    I just have to reiterate i love how fast they are playing in all 3 zones, it doesn’t look like they are thinking at all.

    Very few breakdowns i hope that continues in the 3rd.

    I didn’t get to see the first contest between these 2 teams.

    Seattle plays this pain in the ass style of hockey which is effective

    Kids just need to stay patient and support each other with Seattle and their opportunities will come.

    To bad that puck rolled on Bedard

    Seems with each passing game the club shows they are wiser than their yrs of age. .. For sure, discipline is job 1 vs a muck it up excellent goals against vet group. They have stayed patient and structured and did damage when the opportunity presents. Staying structured, quick feet and darting in forcing quick decisions on the forecheck and then disruptive/darting speed/sticks popping outa the structure in the neutral zone along with the D positioned aggressively in the neautral is eliminating any chhance for any Kraken flow.

    Very much like the energy and churning of their feet v Calgary and the same this game. …. …… Watching the SEA feed. Eddie O has mentioned a few times, and here to start the 3rd, the Kraken need someone to make a play. The Hawk speed, hunger, system, makes that tough for a not very skilled Kraken.

    Late in the 2nd I saw Arty and Rinzel carry the puck below the Seattle goal line.
    I could live without that in the 3rd.
    Not needed with a 2 goal lead vs a team ranked 28th in goals per game.
    Wait for them to pinch, get behind them and make it 3-0.

    Make them go 200 feet again and again and again.
    Somebody did that to the Hawks earlier this season. Just smothered them in the 3rd with a lead.

    7 into the 3rd and SEA ties it on two deflections. Way too much possession for the not so skilled Kraken…… Hawks need to get their feet moving cuz they gave SEA life. .. I don’t wanna lose to this team.

    With an A on his sweater Bedard whines like a punk in a 2-2 game that SEA already has all the momentum coming back from 2 down. Now they’re on the PP……..

    Wow no call, then they give the penalty to 98, egomaniacs that’s what these refs are bunch of bitches.

    Man the fans paid good money to see a game and an egomaniac ref made it all about himself

    Kaiser was perfectly positioned on the goal. He just missed it……. Damn close to squandering points in this one.

    Playing games just like this one in a playoff chase late in the season are needed for any team trying to make a jump. Tough loss after dominating for 2 periods is the kind of adversity this young group needs…….. Poor game awareness by Bedard but that ain’t what lost the game. Club stopped moving its feet in the 3rd, period.

    Well said Mr Ricochet.
    Character builder tonight for sure.

    Fancy stats wound up rather even overall.
    Regardless of particulars, Seattle earned a hard fought road win tonight.

    Not really the refs gave it to them.

    I don’t blame Bedard one bit you work your ass off and some ref who for whatever reason looked the other way on a slash, I’m surprised more players don’t have the courage to call them out. He did the right thing and i hope this team keeps doing it.
