Did you notice that she said she felt nervous after Seattle scored? Way to be unbiased Leah.

The most either team had in this series was 16.

Tonight, the count was 15-5 in favor of Dallas.
Last game, the Kraken lead the count 12-6.

There were many more of these chances in this series than either team generated in the Stars-Wild series.

I did. I'm always rooting for her because she was so bad at play by play....at least we only have to hear her a few times a game.

I stood in front of the TV for the final 30 minutes of regulation. I'm still not entirely convinced we won.

She was nervous, while the 2 morons in the booth became hopeful

This is the thing with fancy stats. We all saw the Stars getting more and better chances, but the Kraken also weren't exactly needing Vezina level goaltending to stop these chances. The Stars took more shots from places on the ice more likely to generate goals, but they also hit the goalie in the belly with most of them.

I still feel for Oleksiak. No puck luck, several turnovers, a post and failed his coverage on Hintz's goal.

Also, I think we have proof that this team was much better without Hakanpää in this series, and that Lindell maybe wasn't the problem.

Maybe I'm more sympathetic because we won; some sort of reverse Stockholm syndroma.

You know what's weird?

I don't actually hate the Kraken or their fans.

That almost never happens to me at the end of a playoff series.

Those *fargin'* assholes. Why are they so likable? No wonder everybody at ESPN was clearly rooting for them.

So Johnston has scored the clincher in both series.

Good thing we got that guy eh?

Usually after seven games, there’s all kinds of bad blood and hatred, but Seattle isn’t that team. They play super clean and aren’t dirty at all.
