    What a fucking game.

    ^(I need an aspirin)

  2. adrianp07

    damn, really thought we had that one up until Boston scored that 6th goal

  3. I’m proud of how they played tonight. Brutal opponent and we went toe to toe with them.

    Bring on playoff hockey.

  4. proud of how close we battled the best team in hockey while also battling the reverse retro curse

  5. LochNessMustard

    Man, talk about a 60m effort blown in the last 5. We need to play complete games against teams like this to make a run in playoffs – or solidify our chances getting there.

    That said – overall great effort from the boys. And fuck the “fans” selling tix to Boston fans.

  6. MormonHorrorBuff

    I feel like the Kraken is the team the Bruins would be most scared of in the postseason.

  7. shot-by-ford

    There’s no two ways about it. This team is good and promising as hell. And perfectly poised to age like a fine wine. But this year is not going to be *the* year. Ron Francis will get use there, I have total faith. Amazing game and amazing effort, we punch above our weight.

  8. tazbouv99

    Brutal loss but that’s still a solid performance. We need to start winning games like that here in the next month but lots of good to build off of.

  9. kevinrays

    Absolutely insane to come out of that game with zero points.

  10. Well if you’re going to lose to Boston, might as well make it fun to watch

  11. seataccrunch

    This one stings! Bruins great but that 2 goals in last four mins shit was awful.

    Need blueline help.l for the squad.

  12. TheAtomicMonkey

    On One Hand: That was an exciting, close game even if we did lose, & losing a game like that to the team currently with the most points is never really that bad.

    On the Other Hand:
    #FUUUUUUCK!!!!!

  13. getthejpeg

    Really needed those points, but it was certainly entertaining. Heartbreaker though.

  14. BlackSnowMarine

    Really needed the fucking points here but whatever. Fuck this and see you Sunday.

  15. kdawgnmann

    Obviously Boston is super good but man it still stings to lose that way at the very end. Doesn’t help that we’ve lost so many games lately.

  16. TripleBicepsBumber

    God what a game. I know losing isn’t fun and we’re out of a playoff spot right now but the fact that we can go toe to toe with a team like Boston makes me feel good about our chances of making the playoffs.

  17. l2ooster

    I’m of the opinion that this one is gonna piss me off for ten minutes and I’ll be ok. They played good. The 4-0 loss to the depleted sharks is the one that ruined my day

  18. CascadianSovietGo

    We lost to a team twenty points ahead of us. I’m not bothered.

    ^^Maybe ^^I’m ^^a ^^little ^^bothered.

  19. Defense and goaltending lost the game. In other news the Pope is Catholic.

  20. BenSoloGhost

    Hell, just wanted a tie to get to OT just for the point. Guys put out a great effort against a hungry Pasta and Bruin offense

  21. NooMikeyNoNoMikey

    Why the fuck do we always sleep on a lead late?!

    I had an awful feeling when we had to hold a lead with less than 5 left.

  22. RyNoDaHeaux

    I grabbed my new hat in the 3rd…. It’s my fault 😭😭

  23. HollywoodAndDid

    Can someone reassure a newer fan who is also a loyal, anxiety-riddled Mariners fan? We’re 3-6 since the ASB. Why do some people in here act like we’re a lock for the playoffs?

  24. Dilldozer32

    At least Matty scored, strengthening that Calder case

  25. RyNoDaHeaux

    My most surprising stat… 11 different goal scorers.

  26. Fishbone345

    First time seeing your team this year, for me at least. Wow, much respect! Our teams in a Cup Final, would be off the charts, insane, fun hockey!
    As a fan of the Broons I’m glad we got the win, but if we hadn’t I still would have felt this way. Super fun game guys!

  27. Fuck Brad Marchand and fuck the Bruins. That is all.

  28. Onaimlos

    Petitioning for a Metropolitans reverse retro!

  29. A_crackinthecup

    Does Ron make a move at the deadline?? They seem like legit contenders.

  30. steppewarhawk

    Can I get a Fuck Brad Marchand that dirty little rat?

  31. Played so well against a top opponent… fuck that ending.,. Would love to see them in a 7 game series

  32. Dr_Marcus_Brody1

    Quick preview of what a 7 game Stanley cup final will be like with them in a few months.

  33. daft_punked

    That dagger… It stings

    And how I hate they couldnt play like this against the Sharks.

  34. Olbaidon

    Alright, losing sucks.

    On one hand “but it’s Boston,” you expect Boston to win games. It’s what they do.

    On the other hand, shits **way** to close in the Pacific to be letting points slip through our hands.

    We have one game in hand against LA and EDM, and luckily have more natty wins which is a main tie breaker. Win the game in hand in we’re immediately back in second place. But that’s such a small margin that we need to see some hard taught game alike tonight for the rest of the season.

  35. B9RV2WUN

    Boston or not the defense was dogshit tonight.

  36. dollaaBILLZ

    Ugh heartbreaking. Great game to watch at CPA. At least we showed we can hang with the beat of them. Get into the playoffs and let’s see how far we can take this.

  37. tetravirulence

    A Boston fan near me was cheering for the refs the entire game to call a penalty on the Kraken for non-penalties, which is peak Boston “Wheel of Excuses” territory, as if Brad “The Nose” Marchand isn’t a little ratcock everytime he’s on the ice. Seriously if you think Philly fans are bad, Boston has them beat in the NHL.

    Loved Gourde getting under their skin though.
    That was great and watching him smile was the icing on the cake.

  38. DG_BeardGains

    To the obnoxious Bruins fan that was taunting the Kraken fans around him. Eat a dick. If I wasn’t concerned with getting ejected from the stadium for life I would have punched you in the mouth. Learn how to win a bit more humbly.

    Overall that was an exciting ass game all the way through, and if we remembered to have a bit more man coverage I think it might have ended a bit differently. On to the next one kraken crew!

  39. Public-Judgment2397

    Great game and heartbreaking loss. The only thing I’ll add that I haven’t seen yet in this thread is does anyone else get bothered hearing all the Boston fans cheering and how many jerseys were in the crowd? It bothered me and I feel like it shouldn’t have.

    Damn traitors.

  40. iloveallthesports

    Who was the guy that kicked Grubauers head when he knocked over the goal? Because fuck him too.
    I doubt he will see repercussions for that move.
