Scott do you have a fave spot for hockey games? Center-ice? Glass? Behind the net? 2nd level?
I like center ice about 12 rows up. Good views all game long. Higher up allows you to see more the strategy the players use. Glass & behind the net is great to witness the speed and power of the players and see the whites in their eyes.
Dunn deal seems pretty fair. Not a steal, but definitely not a terrible deal at all. And I really like the Johansson signing. He won’t be anything special, but a versatile bottom 6 forward for 1.5 million that could provide some much needed offense? Sounds pretty good to me. And if he doesn’t work out he’s only signed for this upcoming season so there’s little to no risk at all
You do know bedard and wright along with a very strong draft class are coming soon. Have you contemplated how unrealistic that everything fits and works together like it did in Vegas. Why be good for 2 years but not win anything even when it isn’t guaranteed you’ll win a round or make the playoffs even if you pick up a high value target. I’d rather be average or bad. The thing that is dumb on Seattle’s end is not drafting higher value players at the expansion and selling them to someone else.
I am excited for the kraken
What do you think there next big move will be
The Dunn (Done) Deal was Good. I didn't know I had A 30 or so year Younger Twin Out West. LOL
I like the Dunn signing, and the Done pun possibilities are endless here in Seattle (although Justin does have to get off the IL first). Johanssen deal is interesting, I think there is a possibility that Francis was able to identify something in him that other teams don't see. True is the other one that stands out to mean after your analysis, I like the upside there, especially with some of their picks from the entry draft it could be really good down the line.
