Was. 102 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 8: It was really good to see and I thought our 103 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 8: guys stuck with it. You know. 104 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 9: It wasn't perfect by any stretch, but it was. 105 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 8: It was a pretty good hockey game for us in 106 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 8: a very very good building. 107 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 10: It is early in the season, but is it important 108 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 10: to come away with two points in the situa when 109 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 10: you're playing an overtime game like that? For the third 110 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 10: night in a row. In the previous two you got 111 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 10: one to the psychological. 112 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 9: Yeah, very it's huge. Yeah, it's huge. 113 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 8: You know, to maybe not come away with two points 114 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 8: tonight would have been super disheartening because we've been in 115 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 8: that situation, you know, the past couple of games. 116 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 9: But you know, we're in tight hockey games. It's the 117 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 9: way it is. 118 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 8: And you know, it's the fourth overtime game in a row, 119 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 8: so we expect to be in tight hockey games for 120 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 8: the most part, and we have to be comfortable playing 121 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 8: in those games. And it was nice to see our 122 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 8: guys get rewarded for what they've done. With you playing 123 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 8: all that overtime, how much do you kind of look 124 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 8: at that when it comes to you know what last time, 125 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 8: what you. 126 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 9: Know, what you need to adjust for this time with overtime. 127 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean you definitely take different looks at at overtime. 128 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 8: And there was a play in our first overtime game 129 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 8: where Shaye theed or got the pocket came down the 130 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 8: ice on Jordan. Ever they were trying to avoid those 131 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 8: types of situations, you know, so you you do some 132 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 8: work on it, but at the end of the day too, 133 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 8: I think our guys have done a really good job 134 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 8: of using their instincts and on the three nds and 135 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 8: have done a real good job of uh controlling the puck. 136 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 8: You know, for me, it's probably the best I've seen 137 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 8: for a while. 138 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 9: Play the uh five games you guys have played so 139 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 9: far of the season. What have you liked about how 140 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 9: you've approached games in terms of your future? Yeah, I've 141 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 9: enjoyed that a lot. Actually, I think our team's competing. 142 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 8: You know, there's there's things that happen out there, but 143 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 8: they're not for a lack of trying. And you know, 144 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 8: that's really the the number one first message we had 145 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 8: at training camp, and our guys have embraced that and 146 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 8: they're doing. 147 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 9: A great job of it. What have you seen from 148 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 9: Shane right, it's making him so effective? Well, he's uh, 149 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 9: he had a great game tonight. 150 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 8: I think for me, Uh, Shane, when he's moving his 151 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 8: feet right and when he's having confidence that he you 152 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 8: know that he can keep the puck and own the puck, uh, 153 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 8: he's gonna continue. 154 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 9: To have more success.

I think, uh, you know, 160 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 8: Josh Naylor supports us too. He was wearing our jersey 161 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 8: after they won, you know, in in in the locker room, 162 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 8: and you know, I it's again, it's about our our hometown, 163 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 8: and it's about our our fans and m and our city. 164 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 9: And I'll say it again. 165 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 8: Our city is a great sports town and we've had 166 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 8: you know, we have great fans. 167 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 9: Uh in every uh you know, in every. 168 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 8: Sport, and you know, uh we're supporting them just as 169 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 8: they would support. 170 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 2: Us on a personal mot is a win like this 171 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 2: in this building. 172 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 9: Specialty, well it's better than losing, you know. 173 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 8: So uh you know I I again, I I you know, 174 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 8: I have a lot of respect for the organization, the 175 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 8: people in the organization from top to bottom, the players 176 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 8: that were on the ice tonight against us. 177 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 9: But yeah, I mean for me, it's it's. 178 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 8: You know, we get we get a win and we 179 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 8: keep going and it doesn't really matter who we're playing. 180 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 4: What would you think of Tail jumping into the role 181 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 4: he did and getting some powerfully time and kind of 182 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 4: handling that role with mine. 183 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, I thought he did a good job. 184 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 8: You know, it's tough when you haven't played for a 185 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 8: little bit, and he I thought he handled that very well. 186 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 8: I thought he played well in exhibition. There's a reason 187 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 8: he's here right now, and you know, he played well 188 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 8: and and he's kept himself ready to go. 189 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 9: What people don't see behind the scenes. 190 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 8: Is his work ethic on days off and days when 191 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 8: you know we're having games. 192 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 9: And he's not in the lineup. 193 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 8: And you know, if you do that, and if you 194 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 8: take the right approach, you give yourself a chance to 195 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 8: have success when you do. 196 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 9: Draw into the lineup. 197 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 2: Gonna be a pretty busy week ahead here for the 198 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 2: Crack and when they take on Philadelphia tonight, Washington tomorrow, 199 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,719 Speaker 2: Winnipeg to end the trip on Thursday, and then come 200 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,479 Speaker 2: right back home to face the the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday. 201 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,079 Speaker 2: But the Crack and so far passing many tests. Right 202 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 2: now at three zero and two to preview matters, everet 203 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 2: fits you, Al Konski and myself dive into it all 204 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 2: a part of crack and weekly. 205 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 5: You can't afford to take the Flyers lightly right. You 206 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 5: know you heard John Walton talk about how this is 207 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 5: gonna be a team that they're gonna struggle to score goals. 208 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 9: This year. 209 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 5: You bring in Rick Tockett, so you know, I think 210 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 5: that's another team that, like Seattle, is going to have 211 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 5: a change of identity. We saw what he did in Vancouver, 212 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 5: and I think he's the right man. 213 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 4: For the job. 214 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 5: But they're still a very young team. And going through 215 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 5: all my player notes for the game here tonight, you 216 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 5: know they've got fifteen guys who have five or less 217 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 5: years of service time in the NHL. So this is 218 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 5: a pretty young team in Philly. I hate the phrase 219 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 5: trap game, I really do. I'm not even gonna use it, 220 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 5: but this is a game that potentially for Seattle, you 221 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 5: can't afford to overlook them because you've got Washington to night. 222 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 5: I think Philadelphia, you know, they're they're a team that 223 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 5: can score if you let them. Dan Vladar six one 224 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 5: in one all time against the Kraken. He's five zero 225 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 5: and one in the last six against Seattle. So if 226 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 5: Vladar is the guy going tonight, uh that that doesn't 227 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 5: bode well. You know, historically for Seattle, this is a 228 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 5: game that even though you got Wash coming up tomorrow, 229 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 5: you cannot afford to take them lightly. 230 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 4: Funny you mentioned Dan Vadar because I thought the same 231 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 4: thing as well, And I looked back at the game 232 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 4: logs for the Flyers so far, and they flip flopped 233 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 4: every game. It's been Samuel jis Arson, Daniel Voladar, back 234 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 4: and forth. And if that holds true, it should be 235 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 4: Samuel Arrison tonight. I don't think it's gonna be if 236 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 4: you look at that record with Dan Voladar. So we'll see. 237 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 4: But you know, the thing about it is with a 238 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 4: ricktocket coach team is you know, the compete level is 239 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,599 Speaker 4: gonna be high. You know, then no quit level is 240 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 4: gonna be high. You know, the workff effort's gonna be there. 241 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 4: I think that's a lot of the Kraken identity as well. 242 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 4: So it's gonna be a battle. 243 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 2: For what it's worth. Lane Lambert, looking for his first 244 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 2: win head to head against Rick Tockett, too, previously faced 245 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 2: off when Taka just took the Canucks job, succeeding Bruce Boudreau. 246 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,719 Speaker 2: Lane Lambert was back with the Islanders. But I mean, 247 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: as they say, coaches often can be changed men when 248 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 2: they get into their second NHL job here and Lane 249 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 2: Lambert right now doing some pretty incredible things. So he's 250 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 2: looking to get his first win against Rick Tocket. Had 251 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 2: to head here for this evening before we move on 252 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 2: to the ideal week ahead and our three Stars picks. 253 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 2: I didn't want to kind of put the spotlight on 254 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 2: the Matty Beaneer's line because we talked about so much 255 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 2: during the offseason. Where Matti beaneers goes, this team could 256 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: go as well. And again Everett, you mentioned we hate 257 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 2: talking about twenty twenty two to twenty three. It's getting 258 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 2: up there now with comparing you know, the expansion draft 259 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 2: here to Vegas way like back five years ago. But 260 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 2: Matty Beaneer's that set the bar for his production. But 261 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 2: now the league figures you out and what can you 262 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: do to win that cat and mouse game to get 263 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 2: back to your ideal numbers? Right now, Beaniir's with three 264 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 2: points in five games. He's playing also with Jared McCann 265 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 2: near point per game, leading goal scorer on this team, 266 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 2: and Jordan Eberley four assists through five games. But you're 267 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 2: not looking at just a baseline numbers here for Beneers. 268 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 2: I've looked over and over and over at one on 269 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 2: one foot races and I'm not groaning. Oh, he should 270 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 2: have had that one. He should have had that one. 271 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 2: It's wow, what a play. He took the body, he 272 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 2: laid the shoulder in. He's doing damage back in his 273 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 2: own zone in a good way and finding the exit 274 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 2: lane for this team. But also he's finding a way 275 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 2: to produce. Help out McCann, help out Eberley, and this 276 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 2: is what you want. Can you find your guy who 277 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: now has taking a leadership role even more with an 278 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 2: A on the front of his jersey and having played 279 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 2: a complete two hundred foot game. Matty Beaneers, so far, 280 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 2: so good. 281 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, we talk about the crack in every game they play, 282 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 5: it seems like you're saying to yourself, man, this might 283 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 5: be the best game that I think we've seen this season. 284 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 5: And I feel like with Matti Beaneers, every game he's played, 285 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 5: I feel like I find myself saying, man, this might 286 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 5: be one of his best performances in the last couple 287 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 5: of years here in Seattle. And it's not a bad thing, right, 288 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 5: It's just him maturing and growing. 289 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 6: You know. 290 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 5: Coming into the season, they were talking about him as 291 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 5: a Selkie dark horse for you know, one of the 292 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 5: top defensive forwards in the league, and he's turning into 293 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 5: a defensive minded, responsible two way player. And you're right, 294 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 5: I think now that he is, you know, going through 295 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 5: the league for the fourth time and he's seeing a 296 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 5: lot of these teams again, and you know, you start 297 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 5: to know what it takes to be at your best 298 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 5: every day and bring you know, ninety percent minimum every 299 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 5: single day. Right, You're finding out what it takes to 300 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 5: survive in this league, and it's paying off dividends and 301 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 5: watching him play this year. This is the Mattivaneers that 302 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 5: the Kraken drafted. This is the Matt Evaneers that they 303 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 5: expected to get when when he came here to Seattle. 304 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 5: And I think he's just getting started this season. 305 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, you and I have talked a lot about him 306 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 4: over this past week. And the thing that I'm seeing 307 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 4: is another element to his game that I didn't see 308 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 4: over the past two seasons. Over the past two seasons, 309 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 4: you know, when given the opportunity a plus in offensive ability, 310 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 4: but he struggled on the defensive side of the puck. 311 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 4: I'm not seeing that as much this year.
