And hey, they won! Kraken Karma after the Kings' tripping penalty

But... Kraken have really struggled ever since Schwartz got hurt, which came in the same game McCann first returned. So if they're now going to be without McCann and Schwartz at the same time, that's some serious trouble for an offensively-challenged team as it it.

What a wild sequence of events late in the Kraken game. As they're trying to snap a brutal skid, McCann looks to get injured again but it results in a Kings penalty, and the power play plus an extra attacker with the empty net allows them to get a bunch of bodies in front of the net and tie it.

Go Zags. That was a great win.

The WSU logo was way cooler to me before I knew about the goofy wavy hidden script. It's a good shape of a Cougar, just be that!

Gonzaga's Tyon Grant-Foster is my favorite college basketball player who will be 26 by the end of the season and the race is not particularly close.

Zags always got dudes, but this year they got some dawgs too. Really showing up on the offensive glass.

Really bad case of the Gun-zah-guhs on the TNT pregame.

The Seahawks' white jersey/gray pants combo is a weird one. Can barely tell on TV it's not all-white uniforms.

Seahawks' defense didn't really look like the Seahawks' defense on the opening drive. They've played well through injuries this year but could be a different story today with an entire starting position group out.

Hey now! What a win on the road AGAIN by the Kraken. And a tremendous play to set up Montour for the winner.

These dudes are pretty fun.

I hope Josh Naylor got it written into his contract that he gets to hit leadoff for the first 15 games and then as long as he keeps his OBP over .340.

I think the Seahawks made the right call hiring Mike Macdonald.

I'm shaking my head in disbelief every time JSN catches a Sam Darnold pass. It's the same feeling as when Cal Raleigh took off this year.

JSN is in the superstar Seahawks WR category that used to only include Steve Largent.

Was wondering this week which of the Seahawks or Huskies were most at risk of a trap game this weekend.

There's the answer.

So, uh, go buy your Sam Darnold jerseys because this dude is SOMETHING

That's still an NFL team they're doing this to. And not, like, the Saints (who they also kinda did this to).

Sam Darnold is playing out of his mind. Arroyo didn't catch that TD so much as found it in his hand.

Darnold’s accuracy is outrageous right now. Just laser pointing it out there.

Totally get it. NFL jerseys have to be the toughest to pick players who won't eventually leave. Used to be franchise QBs were a sure thing, but even those guys move around a lot late in their careers now. Also seems Hawks don't really have the "cool" old school legends to get jerseys of like the M's
