0:21
Speaker 1: The calendar has flipped to twenty twenty six and the
0:24
Speaker 1: Seattle Cracket are riding a five game point streak into
0:27
Speaker 1: the new year. Following a three to two shootout loss
0:30
Speaker 1: on Monday Night, the Kraken Enter play tonight, just two
0:33
Speaker 1: points back of that second and final wildcard spot in
0:36
Speaker 1: the West. Standing in their way tonight is the Nashville Predators,
0:40
Speaker 1: who are one point up on Seattle and have won
0:42
Speaker 1: twelve of their last seventeen games after a less than
0:46
Speaker 1: ideal start to the season with just six wins in
0:49
Speaker 1: their first twenty two. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, Happy
0:52
Speaker 1: new Year, and welcome back inside of Climate Pledgerina alongside
0:56
Speaker 1: Big al Kiniski, I am everet viz you. This is
0:58
Speaker 1: Seattle Crack and Hockey on the Global Credit Union Cracking
1:01
Speaker 1: Audio Network. You are listening to the pregame show served
1:04
Speaker 1: up by Frostbrew Corps Light Choose Chill, new year, new
1:09
Speaker 1: locale for a big al as he's between the benches tonight.
1:12
Speaker 1: Happy to see you down there, partner. Hopefully you can
1:15
Speaker 1: redeem yourself. Last time you were down there, things didn't
1:18
Speaker 1: go so well.
1:19
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that.
1:20
Speaker 3: My goals against the Averages and looking so good. Round's
1:22
Speaker 3: so good.
1:23
Speaker 1: The Kraken wrapped up the year with a three to
1:26
Speaker 1: two shootout loss. They kept their points steak alive now
1:29
Speaker 1: to five games. Not a whole lot to really be
1:32
Speaker 1: disappointed about, maybe outside of the shootout waiting on one
1:35
Speaker 1: for six performance from the power play, but Lane Lambert
1:37
Speaker 1: overall happy with the effort in that game.
1:40
Speaker 4: Yeah.
1:40
Speaker 3: Absolutely again for the sixth game in a row, because
1:42
Speaker 3: the crack can get the first goal of the game,
1:44
Speaker 3: all always so important, and that was a big step
1:46
Speaker 3: in the right direction because it was Jared mccannon the
1:48
Speaker 3: power play getting that first goal of the game and
1:50
Speaker 3: coming under that first period two to one. You felt
1:52
Speaker 3: really good where thinks stood.
1:54
Speaker 1: Goaltending has had to be the best player for the
1:57
Speaker 1: Kraken a lot of times this season. Again tonight we're
2:00
Speaker 1: gonna get a look at Philip Dreubauer, who has won
2:02
Speaker 1: back to back starts, thirty three saves against Philly back
2:06
Speaker 1: over the weekend on Sunday and then going before the
2:09
Speaker 1: break he had forty one saves in Anaheim as well.
2:12
Speaker 1: Philip Drewbauer gonna have another tough test here tonight, but
2:15
Speaker 1: he's been playing some real good hockey this season.
2:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, he has two and three in his last five.
2:20
Speaker 3: With those two wins, he's averaged night or He's had
2:23
Speaker 3: nine seven six save percentages and nine to seven zero
2:25
Speaker 3: save percentage over the last five nine to three four
2:29
Speaker 3: save percentages while stopping an average of thirty four shots
2:32
Speaker 3: on goals. So he's seen a lot of pucks in
2:34
Speaker 3: the games and he's up to the challenge over the
2:36
Speaker 3: last five for sure.
2:37
Speaker 1: On the other side of the red line, this is
2:40
Speaker 1: a Nashville Penators team that had a lot of high
2:42
Speaker 1: hopes coming into the year. They started this season six
2:46
Speaker 1: twelve and four. They have won twelve of their last
2:49
Speaker 1: seventeen games since, including going ten to four in the
2:54
Speaker 1: month of December, outscoring team sixty one to forty eight
2:57
Speaker 1: in their last seventeen games, with four or more in
3:00
Speaker 1: their last nine, so I say all that to say
3:03
Speaker 1: this Nashville team has really pulled a one to eighty
3:06
Speaker 1: over the last month and a half of the season.
3:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, they've been searching just what the Kracking have been searching.
3:10
Speaker 3: So a couple of teams are gonna surge and hit
3:13
Speaker 3: each other head on here tonight. I think special teams
3:15
Speaker 3: are going to be important part over the last five
3:18
Speaker 3: cracking three and twelve for twenty five percent over the
3:20
Speaker 3: last ten, twenty nine percent. Penalty kill has been getting better,
3:23
Speaker 3: no longer in the seller as well over the last
3:26
Speaker 3: five games ninety two point eight percent on the kill
3:28
Speaker 3: and ninety three point seven over the last ten. So
3:31
Speaker 3: if you take the last five to ten games for
3:32
Speaker 3: the Cracking, their special teams are absolutely going in the
3:35
Speaker 3: right direction.
3:36
Speaker 1: Crack in begin their third of four consecutive back to
3:40
Speaker 1: back sets. This is game one of seventeen, tying an
3:44
Speaker 1: NHL record for a calendar month or January for the Cracking.

7:05
Speaker 12: Betton again with you back by the Corps line, landing
7:06
Speaker 12: in section twenty here at climb the Pledge Arena with
7:09
Speaker 12: a Kraken coming in right now sixteen fourteen and seven
7:13
Speaker 12: point total at thirty nine and facing a big matchup
7:16
Speaker 12: here for this evening. As far as implications in the standings,
7:20
Speaker 12: they are one point back of who they're facing in Nashville,
7:23
Speaker 12: who comes in eighteen seventeen and four add forty points
7:28
Speaker 12: on the campaign, and the Kraken right now two points
7:31
Speaker 12: out of the cut line in the Western Conference heading
7:34
Speaker 12: into matchup one of three against Nashville. Well last time out,
7:38
Speaker 12: last game before we said Happy New Year. The Kraken
7:41
Speaker 12: we're pushing hard in the end of back to back
7:44
Speaker 12: but ultimately settling for a three to two shootout loss
7:47
Speaker 12: against Vancouver despite goals from Jared McCann and Ryan Winterton
7:50
Speaker 12: would join you to court, also turning in twenty two
7:53
Speaker 12: saves yet the power play, leaving a ton perhaps on
7:57
Speaker 12: the table, going one of six in that game, including
8:00
Speaker 12: a four on three man advantage in sudden depth overtime,
8:03
Speaker 12: but the penalty kill turning up huge once again, two
8:06
Speaker 12: of two on the night, and the Kraken in back
8:09
Speaker 12: to backs. Despite the shootout loss, you have finding a
8:11
Speaker 12: way to force ot or get a win in the
8:14
Speaker 12: last previous three games on the back end of back
8:18
Speaker 12: to back games. And they're gonna face more of this
8:20
Speaker 12: coming up here for this month because as Everett said,
8:23
Speaker 12: they're gonna play now in seventeen games in thirty one
8:26
Speaker 12: days and at breakneck speed nineteen of the next thirty
8:30
Speaker 12: five days before the Olympic break. So for this evening,
8:34
Speaker 12: as we say Happy New Year, can the Kraken turn
8:36
Speaker 12: this new year from similar results into more of the
8:40
Speaker 12: same as far as the last five games or on
8:43
Speaker 12: a four to zho to one run now tie for
8:45
Speaker 12: the fourth longest point run in the four plus years
8:48
Speaker 12: of this franchise, and they're facing their fourth time playing
8:51
Speaker 12: on New Year's Day in five years. By the way,
8:54
Speaker 12: that holding a two to one record in that respect.
8:57
Speaker 12: Big part of this four oh to one run so
8:59
Speaker 12: far the penalty kill the crack in thirteen to the
9:02
Speaker 12: last fourteen, third best in the NHL in that span.
9:05
Speaker 12: The only two teams better, by the way are Colorado
9:08
Speaker 12: and the Columbus Blue Jackets. Goaltending also a big part
9:11
Speaker 12: of this last five games teams say percentage nine to
9:15
Speaker 12: five to three that is best in the NHL. And
9:18
Speaker 12: your leading scorers so far on this run two thirds
9:21
Speaker 12: of the Chandler Stevenson line, that being Ellie Tolvinen right
9:25
Speaker 12: now first on the Kraken eight points in this run.
9:28
Speaker 12: Chandler Stevenson typer second five points five games, Jordan Ebery
9:32
Speaker 12: also matching him, but also with four goals as well.
9:35
Speaker 12: With the captains certainly heating up at a very very
9:38
Speaker 12: opportune time. Additionally, the krack in finding a way to
9:41
Speaker 12: get on the board first. They have scored first now
9:43
Speaker 12: in six rate games for one and one record in
9:47
Speaker 12: that span, so they're looking for more of the same
9:49
Speaker 12: with essentially no lineup changes on as far as forwards
9:53
Speaker 12: or defenseman here for this one. Their cracking story lines
9:57
Speaker 12: first up begin with this guy on a tear back.
10:01
Speaker 1: Into the offensive zone four seattle, but here behind the
10:04
Speaker 1: goal far quarter and front.
10:07
Speaker 13: Every suits goal turn it every goals in three straight
10:18
Speaker 13: games as couple Cucko feeds it from the right corner.
10:22
Speaker 1: It's a wonderfing cracking lead.
10:24
Speaker 12: Sixteen to twelve to play in the second, every carrying
10:28
Speaker 12: a four game point scoring streak, here into this matchup
10:32
Speaker 12: is fourteen goals right now first on the Kraken, which
10:35
Speaker 12: will put him on pace for a thirty one goal campaign,
10:38
Speaker 12: and against Nashville he has been very effective with seventeen
10:41
Speaker 12: goals in thirty points this evening, also playing in game
10:44
Speaker 12: one thousand and ninety eight of his NHL career. Your
10:48
Speaker 12: second storyline potentially a power play rebound after coming up
10:51
Speaker 12: with just one goal in six chances so yet the
10:54
Speaker 12: numbers say the Kraken should get their chances. Nashville comes
10:57
Speaker 12: in six most minor penalties committed in the NHL this season,
11:01
Speaker 12: plus the power play goals in nine to thirteen games
11:04
Speaker 12: from this last month, so cashing in could be a
11:08
Speaker 12: huge key here for this evening. In your third storyline,
11:11
Speaker 12: Philip Grubauer and netts with good numbers against Nashville. Despite
11:14
Speaker 12: his head to head record of four and five, he
11:16
Speaker 12: owns a nine to ten say percentage intent head to
11:19
Speaker 12: head matchups, and this game will be his first against
11:21
Speaker 12: Nashville in nearly two years. He's also aiming for his
11:25
Speaker 12: first win over the Predators since November two of twenty
11:28
Speaker 12: twenty three. Let's hear more from the Kraken with Ellie
11:32
Speaker 12: Tolbenen facing his former team and he's on a heater
11:34
Speaker 12: right now at the right time. And with that heater,
11:37
Speaker 12: he said he gives credit to his linemates in Chandler
11:40
Speaker 12: Stevenson and Freddie Gudrou.
11:43
Speaker 14: Yeah, obviously there are two really good players. And he's
11:45
Speaker 14: to play with players like that. You know, they see
11:47
Speaker 14: the ice well, you know, the skill set they have,
11:51
Speaker 14: the points they play, you know, it's games gives stem room,
11:55
Speaker 14: it leaves me a room stu arding. And you know,
11:59
Speaker 14: I think in the past and I think as a
12:01
Speaker 14: line we played really good hockey. You know, I've got
12:04
Speaker 14: lucky in the points too, but I think getting a big,
12:08
Speaker 14: big minisy defensively and I think we've done pretty much.
12:11
Speaker 12: He'll be the in the scope of cracking veterans picking
12:14
Speaker 12: up their game. It's also yet been hard to ignore
12:16
Speaker 12: the Ben Meyers line, whether you want to call them
12:18
Speaker 12: the fourth line or not, they have a role and
12:21
Speaker 12: it's abrasiveness. Meyer's being the key faceoff guy as well,
12:25
Speaker 12: in between what has been typically Jacob Allans and Ryan
12:28
Speaker 12: Winterton and also a combination of Ty Carcier, and so
12:31
Speaker 12: it's easy to wonder the effect that his line has
12:34
Speaker 12: on the rest of the team, and Myers said that
12:36
Speaker 12: that line has a role and they know what it's
12:39
Speaker 12: got to be.
12:39
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're trying to be reliable in all three zones,
12:42
Speaker 4: and you know, I think the more you know, we
12:44
Speaker 4: can be responsible and you know, take some dzeled draws
12:47
Speaker 4: and take some pressure off, you know, some of the
12:49
Speaker 4: top lines. All right, guys that are playing more and
12:53
Speaker 4: I think it helps our group and you know, we're
12:55
Speaker 4: just trying to bring energy.
12:56
Speaker 1: At the end of the day.
12:57
Speaker 4: I think that's that's what we're on that line for,
13:00
Speaker 4: and you know that's the main goal.
13:02
Speaker 12: You will also notice something this evening different about Berkeley
13:05
Speaker 12: Catton if you have your eyes on the ice. With
13:07
Speaker 12: this radio broadcast, he changed his jersey number and GM
13:11
Speaker 12: Jason Botterrell offering Caton's familiar twenty seven to him from
13:15
Speaker 12: his Spokane Chiefs days. So off goes seventy seven and
13:18
Speaker 12: ongos twenty seven, and Canton said the number has an
13:22
Speaker 12: even deeper meaning.
13:23
Speaker 15: Is my mom's birthday to day of her birthday, so
13:25
Speaker 15: I've always just kind of worn it. I think she
13:27
Speaker 15: actually picked it for me when I was young enough,
13:29
Speaker 15: So that's kind of how it started, and I always
13:31
Speaker 15: kind of had it growing up and obviously in Spokane,
13:33
Speaker 15: so you know, my favorite number. And I'm not a
13:36
Speaker 15: superstitious guy or anything, but it is cool to wear it.
13:40
Speaker 12: That sets the scene on the Crack Inside. We'll come
13:42
Speaker 12: back in a bit and take a look at Nashville.

16:08
Speaker 12: Your Odds Air courtesy bet MGM. The line with Nashville
16:11

16:15
Speaker 12: and year over under is five and a half. Your

Speaker 12: pregame show is served up by Frost brewed Corse Light shoes.
16:20
Speaker 12: Chill Mike Betton with you in time. Now for a
16:23
Speaker 12: look at Nashville, who was on a major heater to
16:26
Speaker 12: get back in the playoff race ten and four month
16:29
Speaker 12: they had in December, marking their second best run in
16:32
Speaker 12: franchise history. For that month, they have won five of six.
16:36
Speaker 12: They have won the close ones, all of them, by
16:38
Speaker 12: the way, those wins down to two goals or less.
16:41
Speaker 12: And they're playing here today and back to back after
16:43
Speaker 12: beating Vegas four to two yesterday, which included Steven Stanco
16:47
Speaker 12: scoring his six hundredth career NHL goal. Here's a future
16:51
Speaker 12: Hall of Famer before rolling into Seattle on the meaning
16:55
Speaker 12: of scoring goals six hundred in Vegas.
16:58
Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean awesome to do it in in a
17:00
Speaker 17: win like this with how we're going as a group,
17:03
Speaker 17: That's how you envision doing something special like that. Really
17:06
Speaker 17: cool to have the guys come on the ice and
17:08
Speaker 17: share that moment. So glad it happened quick in the game.
17:12
Speaker 17: That's one of those things that can linger a little bit,
17:14
Speaker 17: and I'm glad it was the next game after getting
17:16
Speaker 17: five ninety nine, and like I said, to do it
17:19
Speaker 17: to have a goal in a win, and an effort
17:21
Speaker 17: like that on the road was icing on the cake.
17:24
Speaker 12: His play hasn't just been window dressing. He leads Nashville
17:27
Speaker 12: eighteen goals this season. He's been clutched also four game
17:31
Speaker 12: winning goals in the last six games. Ryan O'Reilly, by
17:34
Speaker 12: the way, a subject of trade talks here to begin
17:37
Speaker 12: this season. Right now, still leading Nashville with thirty four
17:40
Speaker 12: points as well on the campaign, so a big question
17:42
Speaker 12: here for Nashville can they get through a gauntlet of
17:45
Speaker 12: a road trip. But so far, so good on their end.
17:47
Speaker 12: They're two and zero with wins at Utah in Vegas
17:50
Speaker 12: after this as well the Kraken following that Calgary and Edmonton,
17:55
Speaker 12: and they're back home one week here from now. Nashville
17:58
Speaker 12: storylines first up begin with the faceoff circle and they're
18:01
Speaker 12: one of the better teams in the NHL in that category,
18:04
Speaker 12: seventh best at fifty two percent. Ryan O'Reilly leads them
18:08
Speaker 12: fifty four percent of their draws he's won. Others include
18:11
Speaker 12: Michael mcairn fifty three percent at the dot also used
18:14
Speaker 12: a ton on the penalty kill, and Eric Halla at
18:18
Speaker 12: fifty two percent. Secondly, a homecoming of swords here for
18:22
Speaker 12: Reed Schaefer, a rookie for from Spruce Grove, Alberta. But
18:26
Speaker 12: if you follow Seattle on the WHL the Thunderbirds, you
18:29
Speaker 12: might recall his name. He won a WHL title with
18:32
Speaker 12: them three years ago. He's here. Brother Clark is also
18:36
Speaker 12: here tonight. He's an everage silver tips forward and reads.
18:39
Speaker 12: Parents and billets are also here, marking his first game
18:42
Speaker 12: back here in the Pacific Northwest since his WHL days,
18:46
Speaker 12: and he also has points in back to back games.
18:50
Speaker 12: That's here more from Nashville, and they've been dialed in
18:52
Speaker 12: with goaltender UC Sorrows, who will start in net. But
18:55
Speaker 12: their starts have been bumpy in for the last five
18:57
Speaker 12: games they have given up the first goal, but Stamco
19:00
Speaker 12: said they're still finding ways to win.
19:03
Speaker 17: Yeah, this group is not quitting, that's for sure. And
19:05
Speaker 17: we've seen it over the past couple of games. We
19:06
Speaker 17: saw it last game and we got to fix the starts.
19:09
Speaker 17: That's something that's been a little concerning. But you know,
19:12
Speaker 17: the group beared down. How our play was big special teams,
19:15
Speaker 17: big kill at the end as well, and you know
19:18
Speaker 17: another juice playing great nets. So it's a recipe for wins,
19:21
Speaker 17: especially on the road. It's not always pretty, certainly wasn't
19:25
Speaker 17: in certain moments today, but you find a way and
19:27
Speaker 17: you grind and that's.
19:27

Speaker 10: If you're listening to Seattle Cracking hockey on the Kraken
21:41
Speaker 10: Audio Network.
21:42
Speaker 1: Back inside a climate plaid arena, the first game of
21:45
Speaker 1: the new year, Kracking trying to push that point streak
21:48
Speaker 1: to six games evert fits you, Al Kaniski between the
21:52
Speaker 1: benches here tonight, Partner Cracking trying to leap frog the
21:57
Speaker 1: Preds and go into a tie for that second and
22:00
Speaker 1: final wildcard spot. Give us some keys on how they
22:03
Speaker 1: can get that done.
22:04
Speaker 3: Here today with groove staying hot, Philip Grubauer needs to
22:08
Speaker 3: keep playing like a guy who just found an extra
22:10
Speaker 3: gear in the glove compartment. Calm, calm, square and stubborn
22:15
Speaker 3: as a parking meter that won't take your credit card.
22:18
Speaker 3: Crew has to frustrate Nashville early if he's seeing pucks
22:21
Speaker 3: clean and he's controlling the rebounds. The Kraken bench gets
22:24
Speaker 3: loud and confident in a hurry Secondly, speed kills, especially
22:29
Speaker 3: against big predators. Nashville brings size, muscle, and that we
22:32
Speaker 3: eat our protein look, so Seattle has to counter with
22:35
Speaker 3: rocket fuel, quick puck movement, fast exits and relentless pressure
22:39
Speaker 3: turned big bodies into slow pivots. Make the prebs chase
22:43
Speaker 3: all night and by the third period their lakes should
22:45
Speaker 3: feel like they spent New Year's dancing in cowboy boots,
22:48
Speaker 3: and then third Blue Line has to light it up.
22:51
Speaker 3: Seattle needs more offense from the defense, shots, movement, and
22:55
Speaker 3: chaos from the point. Ryker Evans was the last Blue
22:57
Speaker 3: Liner to score five games ago. When San Jose get
23:01
Speaker 3: pucks through traffic, crash the net and let the forwards
23:04
Speaker 3: hunt rebounds like seagulls a peer fifty seven on a
23:06
Speaker 3: drop bag of French fries. When the Blue Line contributes,
23:09
Speaker 3: the craken attack becomes a five lane freeway instead of
23:12
Speaker 3: a two lane dirt road. So in summary, the recipe
23:15
Speaker 3: is simple. Group guards the net like it's New Year's resolutions,
23:19
Speaker 3: speed turned size into a liability, and the defense joins
23:22
Speaker 3: the party offensively. Do that Nashville spends the night reaching
23:26
Speaker 3: instead of checking. If all three keys click here, climate
23:30
Speaker 3: pledge will feel less like a cocky rink and more
23:32
Speaker 3: like a rock concert with the Predators stuck in the moshpin.
23:34
Speaker 3: And trust me, Seattle likes those odds.
23:37
Speaker 1: I'm gonna add a fourth key for you, partner. Yeah,
23:39
Speaker 1: the fourth line tonight has got to do what they
23:42
Speaker 1: do best. And I know that you really like the
23:44
Speaker 1: play of Winter, Jon Myers and the Laws and Carcia
23:47
Speaker 1: healthy scratch for the second consecutive game. So winterton stays
23:51
Speaker 1: on the left side of that fourth line, but they
23:53
Speaker 1: have been lights out in a lot of different areas
23:57
Speaker 1: for this team in the last week and a half
23:58
Speaker 1: two weeks.
23:59
Speaker 3: Well, there's something he's looking for in your fourth line.
24:01
Speaker 3: Enough physicality and not being a liability on defense. And
24:04
Speaker 3: we heard Lane Lambert talk about that that he feels
24:06
Speaker 3: more confident having them out for a defense of zone
24:08
Speaker 3: draw so that his more offensive lines can go out
24:11
Speaker 3: when there's an offensive zone draws. So when you have
24:13
Speaker 3: that confidence in your fourth line, they're playing physical and
24:16
Speaker 3: these guys are fast. What that starts to create is
24:19
Speaker 3: offensive opportunities as well. And we saw that last game
24:21
Speaker 3: with the winterting goal.
24:23
Speaker 1: He's got five assists, he's got twenty four games under
24:26
Speaker 1: his NHL belt, and now he has a new number,
24:29
Speaker 1: Berkeley Catton, going back to his Spokane Chiefs number seven,
24:34
Speaker 1: the twenty seven from seventy seven. I mean we have
24:38
Speaker 1: to have a Berkeley Catton patric incoming, right. I mean,
24:41
Speaker 1: what does this mean changing a number midway through the year.
24:45
Speaker 1: He looks good in that two seven house set.
24:48
Speaker 3: I mean, I'll tell you there are been times in
24:49
Speaker 3: my playing pass where you do get the number you want,
24:53
Speaker 3: maybe somebody else leaves the team for whatever reason and
24:55
Speaker 3: it's available. There is kind of an X factor there
24:58
Speaker 3: when you have the number you want your back, and
25:00
Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to seeing what effect the house on
25:02
Speaker 3: Berkeley Catton's game tonight. So Berkeley Catton's number twenty seven. Hey, al,
25:06
Speaker 3: you know who our number one is? Absolutely Mike Benton.
25:10
Speaker 1: Mike Betton down of the course night landing section twenty.
25:12
Speaker 3: He's standing by.
25:13
Speaker 1: He's got more for it. Come on out between the benches,

Speaker 12: we see happy New Year too, these guys. You're a
27:48
Speaker 12: head coach, Lane Lambert standing by with ever fits you.
27:52
Speaker 1: Thanks Mike, Happy New Year to you, Bud Lane. You
27:55
Speaker 1: have a five game point street going right now following
27:57
Speaker 1: a three two shootout loss to Vancouver.
28:00
Speaker 6: How did you.
28:00
Speaker 1: Feel about the Crack end the way they played it
28:02
Speaker 1: close at the of the year.
28:04
Speaker 21: Yeah, I thought we I thought we played very well,
28:07
Speaker 21: you know, in the last few games, and certainly the
28:09
Speaker 21: Vancouver game. You know, it's funny how it goes. The
28:13
Speaker 21: games you maybe should win you don't, and the games
28:16
Speaker 21: you shouldn't, you do, you know, I thought that was
28:20
Speaker 21: definitely a game we should have won.
28:21
Speaker 1: We know you've said this multiple times the last couple
28:24
Speaker 1: of weeks that the team has played better in some
28:27
Speaker 1: of their losses as opposed to maybe some of their wins.
28:30
Speaker 1: When you look at a game like Vancouver, did you
28:32
Speaker 1: feel that there was some meat left on the bone
28:33
Speaker 1: or were you overall satisfied with how the team.
28:36
Speaker 21: Played, very satisfied with how the team played, you know.
28:40
Speaker 21: I mean, you can look back on two or three
28:43
Speaker 21: different situations, but we had the majority of the scoring chances.
28:49
Speaker 2: You know.
28:49
Speaker 21: We certainly had opportunity in overtime on the power play,
28:54
Speaker 21: which we you know, didn't capitalize on. So maybe from
28:57
Speaker 21: that standpoint, a little meat left on the bone. But
29:01
Speaker 21: I do honestly believe that it shouldn't even have gotten
29:04
Speaker 21: too overtime, and you know it did. And or a
29:09
Speaker 21: shootout record is not good enough. We've got to be
29:12
Speaker 21: better in that situation, you know. So we're definitely going
29:16
Speaker 21: to have more shootouts here by the end of the year,
29:19
Speaker 21: so we've got to make some adjustments and some changes there.
29:22
Speaker 1: You've worked on the shootout and practice a few times
29:25
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. Is that something that you
29:28
Speaker 1: can practice? I mean, each guy's got their individual moves.
29:32
Speaker 1: You can't practice against other goalies other than your own.
29:35
Speaker 1: How do you prepare and plan for a shootout?
29:38
Speaker 21: Well, there's a goalie scout put out for our guys
29:41
Speaker 21: to understand what exactly, you know, maybe the weakness of
29:45
Speaker 21: the oppositetion goal tiger is.
29:48
Speaker 6: You know, if you get.
29:48
Speaker 21: Into that shootout situation and you can practice it, and
29:53
Speaker 21: we do practice it, but I use this analogy. I
29:57
Speaker 21: can stand there and make fifteen three foot putts and
30:00
Speaker 21: row on the practice screen and then I've brought a
30:02
Speaker 21: three foot or to you know, take twenty bucks off
30:05
Speaker 21: my buddy. And it's a little bit different than that. So,
30:09
Speaker 21: you know, finding guys that relish that.
