Would have loved a win.
Anywho, see you nerds at home on Sunday.
Poo
🙁
i am sad. dallas outplayed us. we’ll get em at cpa.
Honestly happier to end on a slightly better note with a goal at the end. Hope the boys enjoy their much needed extra rest time and come back swinging at home on Sunday!
I’m happy with a road split. See ya’ll at CPA. Goodnight.
Is it just me or did the boys look tired out there today?
next time we gotta score more goals than them…
We split, that’s what we needed to do. We picked up some offense at the end of the game, hopefully the boys expand that when they come home. We need the rest too. These guys haven’t slept in their own beds in awhile.
we just got out played during too many big moments in this game, rest up and on to game 3!
Well that was embarrassing.
All but 3 guys played like ass.
Hopefully that last goal will bring a little life to the team showing that we can get it to the back of the net, but damn this team needs to give it more.
Outclassed and outplayed, simple as that.
Swipe left and on to the next one.
Got a road win, take the positive.
Can we learn how to face off??
Just a sloppy game. Way too many turnovers. Way too many penalties. Way too many faceoffs lost. Get home, take the extra rest day, regroup, and DEFEND HOME ICE.
Hoping the two day rest will help this team recollect . Hoping we win both games at home and watch the fans go nuts . See you lovely people on Sunday
We fought to the end. 1-1 is a fine place to be in this series.
Look really gassed, but hopefully with a few days of rest we will be ready to go game 3.
Lets go Kraken.
It was never going to be a sweep, and stealing one on the road is great.
Now just need to do work on home ice. See y’all Sunday.
Gg stars. That’s your last win of the year.
That was the Stars game to take. The boys put up a great fight, could’ve easily got one at the end. Now for a much needed extra day off!
Only 14% of series have been sweeps
Gotta be happy with a split on the road. Boys should get much needed rest over the next couple of days. We will defend home ice!
Coming home 1-1. Really the best we can ask for going in. Need to find a way to win at CPA. Clean up the dumb penalties and it’s 2-2 at the end. Will be great to get the extra day off. See y’all Sunday!!
Tough loss. Dallas played better than them for most of the game. They gotta regroup and refocus for the next 2 games on home ice. Let’s go kraken!
Really feeling the effects of the writer’s strike now. This plot fucking sucks 😩
I will gladly take 1 out of 2 games in Dallas. What a series so far.
Where the fuck was our forecheck for 90% of this game? Felt like you could count on one hand the number of times we touched the puck twice after entering the zone.
Not our best game, but this is now a ~~best-of-3~~ best-of-5 and I like our odds. Hopefully the long(ish) break will help. Still going to bed sad but I still believe.
Edit: I’m dumb and it’s been a long day 😔
i hate the entire state of texas.
Ok, I know we saw that we *could* rely on Gru to keep us in it in the playoffs, I hope after this game they realize that they *can’t* just do that & that they still need to shot more. For awhile I could feel the “are the Kraken more confident in shooting when Jones is in the net?” comments.
The team just looked tired all game, which I don’t blame them. Nice two day rest before taking the led again on Sunday.
No complaints, boys played hard and got a win in Dallas! Now we need to do it again at home.
We got bent over….but like in a kinda “I’m just so out of it, go ahead” way. Those two days between this and game 3 will be a much needed rest, hell we’re very lucky that we stole game 1 AGAIN.
Hopefully we can get McCann back in the lineup and have some presence on PP and PKs, hell maybe Beniers will actually look like the Calder finalist he is and get his first playoff goal.
GG Stars we still took one!🦑🦑
At least we showed up in the last five minutes. Best empty net play from us all year!
You guys have a serious team. Of course I’m happy that we won but, I don’t underestimate the Kraken for a minute. This is one amazing and exciting series, both sides are going to have to claw their way to the other side and I hope everyone is enjoying this glorious sport we love so much. Y’all are lucky it’s only 9:30 over there, I have to go to bed with all this energy!
Gru appreciation post! In Gru we trust!
Very tired game. Playing with house money with a win on the road. Just look to Game 3.
We need rest. And we get an extra day with G3 on Sunday.
We’ve absolutely got to adjust offensively. Dallas is an elite defensive team and they’ve got an all class goalie.
Excited to see how we come out at CPA. It’s gonna be rocking.
Stars needed this one tonight and we’re coming home with home ice advantage. They’d have had to win 4 of the next five with a loss tonight and we looked gassed. Gru put up a fight, but a rare wraparound and his five hole was open for business. Three days rest should be good for the team and I expect a much different game Sunday.
No one said it would be easy – we’re in for another tough series. Clean up the penalties and let’s take game 3
Best we’ve looked all season when pulling our tender. I take that as a positive at least.
Boys should benefit from the 2 day break. Energy levels were much lower than game 1. Fore check was less impactful, less puck battles being won, we were waaay less physical overall than last game and Dallas was throwing their weight around.
Rest up, boys. Series goes 2-1 for the Kraken on Sunday.
To everyone talking mad shit about Matty Beniers. Suck a big, fat, gonorrhea-infested dick.
Go kraken ❤️❤️
Gru fought hard, everyone did what they could. 1-1 is respectable. Love seeing Hank during intermissions. Even more handsome goalie content 😂
To everyone feeling the pain: get a good night’s sleep, it’ll be okay. This series is winnable. We felt outclassed by the Avs, and we won. I don’t think we’re outclassed by the Stars.
And to all the Stars fans who heckled Gru after that five-hole goal: I’m coming for your asses 😤 no one disrespects my goalies!!
Can we bench regular season Soucy and get playoff Soucy back? Worst timing for lazy penalties.
