Unfortunately, the Kraken found nothing as far 43 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 2: as offense and squandering three power play chances. It led 44 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 2: to Edmonton claiming two of three in the regular season 45 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 2: series and leaving the Kraken with just a one to 46 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 2: three and two record ending their six game road trip. 47 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 2: Now with nine games to play, five at home and 48 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 2: four on the road, here's reaction before we get to 49 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 2: al Koniski from Crackingead coach Lane Lambert in Edmonton. 50 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 3: I thought there were some good things. You know, we 51 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 3: know that they you know, they're a bit of a 52 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 3: handful of the so I thought we for the most part, 53 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 3: kept their opportunities to a minimum. I think we had some, 54 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 3: you know, not a lot, but we had some good 55 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: enough chances to score low scoring game, and we did 56 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: not convert on our opportunities. 57 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 4: You seem to increase the offense and the scoring chances 58 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 4: after the first period. What was a messaging after that 59 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 4: that opening period? 60 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know, clearly wasn't the start we wanted 61 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: in terms of, you know, they dump the puck end 62 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 3: and we you know, we end up trying to bat 63 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 3: it out goes off there, it's going to eight feet widen, 64 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 3: it goes off their back. You know this kind of 65 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 3: the way it's going right now. Certainly wasn't anything necessarily structural. 66 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 3: A bit of a fortune to break for them, and 67 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 3: then you know we'd make a mistake offensive blue line 68 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 3: when we've got complete control of the puck ends up 69 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 3: in the back of Ournett. So you know you come 70 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 3: in as a year down too. I thought again, I 71 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 3: thought we I didn't think we played terrible in the 72 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 3: first period, but you know, we find ourselves down again. Jason, 73 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 3: a game it's not easy to do. Why do you 74 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 3: think they had trouble scoring? 75 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 4: I know that you said, and Jordan also said that. 76 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 3: You know you like the chances, but is there something 77 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 3: that you point to as to why it was hard 78 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: for them to find the back of the net. Well, 79 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 3: you know their goalie made some saves and were missing 80 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 3: having a couple of good opportunities. 81 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 4: You would jar it up to the top line. What 82 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 4: were you looking to get out of him and what 83 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 4: do you think he was able to give you there? 84 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 3: I thought, I thought we had again. I thought Maddie's 85 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 3: line had a slow start to the game. I switched 86 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 3: it up a little bit to try and create a spark. 87 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 3: You know, I thought they created some opportunities, certainly in 88 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 3: the second period, Yeah, you know, and I thought that, 89 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 3: you know, I thought we had a couple of good 90 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 3: opportunities Ebbs had at one point that they missing that on. 91 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 3: So you know, there was some there was a little 92 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 3: bit offense out of that line. 93 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 4: You mentioned the opportunities and some of the misses and 94 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 4: the bad breaks at times, like, how do you how 95 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 4: important is it for the team not to carry this 96 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 4: with them now into the following games, to let this 97 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 4: build with nine games to go, I. 98 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 3: Mean, you can't. You gotta have a short term memory here, 99 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 3: you know, Like I said, I thought we did some 100 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 3: good things in the hockey game, and we have to 101 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 3: build off of that, and we've got to find a 102 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 3: way to put the buck in the back of the 103 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 3: net and get some wins. 104 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 5: All right. 105 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 2: Here we go nine games left in the regular season, 106 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: two coming up at home, and as we said on 107 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 2: Cracking Weekly, you have got to make every ounce of 108 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: hay as possible in this playoff race. Al Kiniski joining 109 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 2: me right here on Cracking this morning to talk about it. 110 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 2: But Al first, off Adam Larson one thousand NHL games. 111 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:35,799 Speaker 2: To you, what defines his legacy. 112 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, backbone of the blue line, backbone of the team. 113 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 5: He's a guy that doesn't celebrate things too high and 114 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 5: doesn't get up seven things are too low. To me, 115 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 5: he's he's definitely a big part of the leadership of 116 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 5: this team. Leads in block shots. I'm probably more excited 117 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 5: than any other player on the team when I see 118 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 5: Adam Larson score. I think that he is so excited 119 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 5: when it happens. I like his humor around to putting 120 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 5: him on the shootout. He's just a great human being. 121 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 2: Coming up, this will be the final matchup of the 122 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 2: season against the Utah Mammoth, and we have seen as 123 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 2: far as the kind of damage that Clayton Keller can do, 124 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: Nick Schmaltz can do. I mean, their back end got 125 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: better with not just Mikhail Sergachev but also with McKenzie Wieger. 126 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 2: But again, I go right back to what played the 127 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 2: krack in here for this last road trip, and it 128 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 2: was falling behind four of six games and then finding 129 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 2: ways to let a team like Buffalo right back into it. 130 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: So for me, I would think again, we talked on 131 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 2: Cracking Weekly about the value of getting production out of 132 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 2: your top line guys, and there was some shuffling here, 133 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 2: but I think for me, it's just find a way 134 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 2: to seize control first five minutes, first ten minutes. If 135 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,799 Speaker 2: you get out of the first period scoreless, totally okay. 136 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 2: This team's mo has been kind of like an eighteen wheeler, 137 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: start out slow, gradual pace and then really get rolling 138 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 2: in the second and third period. 139 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 140 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 5: I mean, if you watch the first two periods of 141 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 5: the Edmonton game. The first period, there was a real 142 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 5: hesitation to shoot the puck, there was a real lack 143 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 5: of shots on goal, and then you saw some switch 144 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 5: get flipped between the first and second and all of 145 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 5: a sudden, they're shooting from all over the ice. And 146 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 5: I think they put up thirteen in the second period 147 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 5: as opposed to six in the first, and I think 148 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 5: the krack and have to find a way to have 149 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 5: that second period mentality they had an Edmonton right from 150 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 5: the puck drop. They've got to come out on the attack. 151 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 5: They've got to come out with that intensity, with that 152 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 5: for check, with that physicality, put the other team on 153 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 5: their heels. Yes, you're going to have to play defense, 154 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 5: and yes, they're going to attack when they can as well. 155 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 5: But I think if you jump on them quickly, it 156 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 5: does not give them many opportunities in that first period, 157 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 5: and there's a much higher likelihood that you end that 158 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 5: first twenty either tied or in the lead. 159 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 2: There's often an indicator of the value of a goals 160 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 2: in the NHL by often times we talk about in 161 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 2: his ability to quote drive a line end quote. Bobby 162 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 2: McMahon came in proverbial guns blazing, playing with Matty Beniers 163 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 2: and Jordan Everley, Lane Lambert switching things up, then putting 164 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 2: McMahon with Chandler Stevenson and Coppocaco newest flash. Nickcmahon is 165 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 2: still scoring, he's helping drive play. But what about Coppocco 166 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 2: with now four points last three games. He has a 167 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 2: great since the Olympic break. And I thought Lane Lambert 168 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 2: had a great point on this about a couple of 169 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 2: games ago. I want to say, where in contrast to 170 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 2: other players going into the Olympic break maybe helps them 171 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 2: with some rest. This was a benefit to Copocaco to 172 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 2: continue the rhythm he's had in the Olympics and then 173 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 2: coming right back out and picking up right where he 174 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: left off. 175 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, that second line of Stevenson, Cocko and McMahon, I 176 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 5: think is your your power line. I mentioned before that 177 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 5: Bib McMahon is a prototypical power winger on this team. 178 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 5: Coppo Cocco is as well. I think the difference is 179 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 5: is McMahon might be a little faster on his feet, 180 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 5: but Coppo Cocko plays that same kind of game as well. 181 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 5: He wants to work the boards, he wants to be 182 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 5: in front of the net, he wants to get his 183 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 5: shot off, he wants to drive to the net. And 184 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 5: I think, you know, if I'm Chandler Stevenson and I 185 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 5: got guys like that on either of my wings, I'm 186 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 5: looking to get them the puck all over the ice 187 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 5: so they can do that, and I can follow it 188 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 5: up with maybe putting in the rebounds or resetting. And 189 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 5: that's exactly the way Chandler Stevenson's been playing with these 190 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 5: two guys. 191 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 2: So nine games left here in the regular season, eighteen 192 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 2: points in the table, you're still calling this the same 193 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 2: fourteen points? I then gets the job done. 194 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 5: I think, so fourteen points now, it doesn't have to 195 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 5: have to be you know, seven wins. There could there 196 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 5: could be some some extra points in there for ots, 197 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 5: but I think fourteen points gets you in. 198 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 2: All right for the Seattle crack In. For that goal. 199 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 2: Let's get cracking. By the way, Al, we'll talk about it. 200 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 2: More than I appreciate you, buddy, Thank you. 201 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: You got to make you beat awesome. 202 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,079 Speaker 2: Thanks Al tot tonight. Appreciate you, Al Koniski joining us 203 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 2: the Krack and will need it appears each and every 204 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 2: one of those points because the climb just got a 205 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 2: bit steeper uphill. Last night, only three games in the NHL, 206 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 2: two bearing significant consequence in the Western Conference playoff race. 207 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 2: The San Jose Sharks beat the Anaheim Ducks for three 208 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 2: after the Sharks scored two goals in the span of 209 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 2: one minute and nine seconds get this, in the final 210 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 2: two minutes of regulation. Then the Los Angeles Kings took 211 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 2: Saint Louis to overtime three point game at play, the 212 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 2: Kings surviving the Blues to one the final in sudden 213 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 2: depth overtime at Crypto dot Com Arena, which now puts 214 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 2: the crack In three points out of the playoff picture 215 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 2: in the Western Conference again, with nine games to play, 216 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 2: they have seventy five points the Kings have seventy eight, 217 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 2: and now the krack And have two leapfrog Winnipeg, who 218 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 2: was one point ahead, Nashville who was two points ahead, 219 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,719 Speaker 2: and the Sharks, who are also two points ahead. The 220 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 2: Kraken have faced to Utah twice at Climate Pledge Arena. 221 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 2: They won both those meetings back last season. This is 222 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 2: the first and only visit for the Mammoth into Climate 223 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 2: Pledge Arena all season long, as the crack And look 224 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: to salvage a win in the three game head to 225 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 2: head series.
