Damn, maybe we were quick to dismiss Ron Francis. Infinite forechecking works! |

We will see. Congrats to the Kraks, they absolutely earned every bit of that seven-game victory. I'll admit both Hakstol and Francis have surprised me because I thought making a blueline that big and slow in this economy was a huge detriment, but the key is, their forwards are so damned fast and so many are quality puck-battlers that they offer just the right support for those guys. I could totally see them go on a big run, the Stars and Golden Knights and Oilers are obviously quality teams but all have their vulnerabilities that a team like Seattle could exploit. |

Interesting moves by the Kraken so far this offseason, moving on from high performers Sprong, Geekie and Donato. Probably playing it smart that they won't repeat their 2022-23 numbers. Instead, they get Spokane's own Kailer Yamamoto on the cheap and pick up the nearly finished Brian Dumoulin for a pretty negligible amount. |

Vince Dunn cashes in after a career year: 4 x 7.35M AAV. He's the man on offence on the back end here, so no reason he can't put up points again. |
