1. Jesus fucking Christ Flower hang the shit up and bring Wall up, this is getting stupid

2. #🥀

3. If I have nothing nice to say, I must not say anything at all.

4. Shootouts are dumb. Bring in the wall

5. 81-1 is still pretty good, I guess

6. This game was such fucking bullshit. Refs gifted it to Seattle.

7. Refs back to form today

8. my fucking god

9. Man, refs helped Seattle with that win but Flower looked rough.

10. Good effort, hard hockey! A lot of chances that didn’t quite connect, classic goals against

11. i blame whatever the hell happened with the no call on ekkie. and the refs

12. Frustrating game on so many levels.

13. Wally gonna see time sooner than later. Fleury just looked so slow, especially on that SO.

14. Super reactionary take but that’s a game that fleury could’ve won for us. Didn’t play too bad but didn’t play amazing. Boldy’s miss in OT was a killer

15. And the jets tomorrow… Should be fun

16. Absolutely gift wrapped and handed a win to Seattle from game management.. every fucking goal they had was at the very least questionable. Unbelievable.

17. Boldy. I’m so very impressed.
    Lots to be happy with from this. First line looked 100 times better than last game. I’m very bullish.

18. Very frustrating game. Fleury was subpar but those calls were god awful. Shouldn’t have lost that. I have a new found deep dislike for the Kraken

19. first of all: none of this should have happened as one of the Kraken’s goals came off a non existing PP (if anything the PP should have been for us, a non call would have been infuriating but a completely reversed call is just BS). We have things to fix, mainly the fact that every time we scored we allowed one very soon. Also why do I get the impression that we scored the hard goals and allow the easy ones? Anyway a point is good for the standing, but not enough. If we miss the playoffs by a point I will be looking at this game, at the refs but also at Boldy not burying it in OT.

20. I had Russo’s Twitter up on my phone while watching the game. Since he’s at the game, he’s tweeting 10-15 seconds before we see it on TV.

    I “conned” my fiance out of $10 by “predicting” what would happen throughout the game.

    Don’t worry, I’ll buy her some ice cream or something with it….

21. I’m still looking for the defense 👀

22. Unrelated question, are all players in the league wearing the Gaudreau sticker on the back of their helmets for the season? Noticed that it was still on the wild’s helmets tonight

23. Frustrating game. Luckily we still got 80 more. Huge game tomorrow night

24. Didn’t get to follow the game until the 3rd. What happened to JEEK?

25. Refs fucked this one up, we were the better team 100%.

    Aside, don’t know if I like Boldy/Kap in the shootout. Freddy has mitts he should take a shot. I guess the coaching staff aren’t idiots and probably spent a 4 hour SO session here and there to take some sample sizes. Or even collect in game SO data to go by.

26. Hate to say it but getting Spurgeon back hasn’t seemed to get Middsy back to form and he might be the worst player on the team right now.

27. Crazy game, had the physicality and intensity of a playoff game. Phantom call on Brodin changed the whole complexion of that game, Wild were rolling them before that ensuing PP goal. Boldy white hot to start this season!! Bit of a rough night from Flower.

    Hopefully Ek is alright and not out for an extended period of time!! Quick turnaround tomorrow to face our arch nemesis Jets. Boys better be ready, going to be another tough and physical affair.

28. Honest question: what would you replace shootouts with? I refuse to have ties, they’re so unsatisfying and I prefer a final result.

29. Refs suck. It was an obvious botched penalty call, you can admit it and say oops NVM instead of effecting outcomes of games. Bastards. Wild still shouldn’t have given up those quick response goals

30. Not ideal, but at least we got a point out of it

31. Kaprizov is electric. No slow start this year.

32. I REALLY hope JEK is okay….

33. man, that was brutal. by the end i just wanted it over no matter the outcome but losing in the shoot out was particularly sucky. i love fleury but this was a ridiculously rough game for him :/ it sucks that even with our fuck ups, most of this outcome snowballed from the refs fucking up in the 2nd.

    ending aside, really loved watching boldy play tonight. that boldy-hartman goal was nasty and the most fun i had tonight.

    lmao i just saw russo say brodin said the ref apologized to him after watching a replay

34. Mfw kap got all 3 stars

    In our hearts

35. I said it last year, I’m going to say it again…the NHL needs to take a page from the PWHL and have one zebra wear a go pro during every game. Hopefully the go pro means higher accountability for calls made
