Davy Jones’ Locker Room

I don’t want to overstay the importance of today’s Seahawks game, but today’s game feels like the Super Bowl of sporting events

Go Hawks

New from Davy Jones' Locker Room!: Kraken RECAP: Kraken crush Kings in 4-2 WIN! www.davyjoneslockerroom.com/kraken-recap...

The Seattle Kraken have defeated the Los Angeles Kings and head into the Olympic break winning 5 of their last 6.

#SeaKraken

More penalties! This time Adrian Kempe gets four minutes for high sticking Adam Larsson, so the #SeeKraken go back on the power play.

It is now Kaapo Kakko’s turn to sit in the penalty box, as the officials need to get their quota in before the Olympic break. Gotta get those numbers up.

Brandt Clarke and Vince Dunn take matching unsportsmanlike conduct penalties and we get to play 4-on-4 for a bit.

#SeaKraken

Seattle! Kraken! GOAL!!

Shane Wright, who was not traded today, attacks the net with vim and/or vigor and the #SeaKraken take a two-goal lead on a

power
play
goal!

Joel Armia goes to the box for hooking. If you had dreams of a third period that is heavy on 5-on-5 play, I’m so sorry.

The Kings thought they scored, the fans thought they scored, the players thought they scored, but the officials did NOT. Ref blew the whistle, thinking Daccord had covered it (he didn't) and the Kings fans are all "what a bunch of window lickers" amidst much hooting and oinking.

And we play on.

#SeaKraken go back on the penalty kill when Jamie Oleksiak gets two minutes for high-sticking.

Will the Kraken ever kill a penalty again? Let’s find out!

It’s the final period before the Olympic break. Can the #SeaKraken hold on to win this one? Let’s find out as the third period is

under
way!

After two, the #SeaKraken lead by one.

If you remove specifically power play goals scored by Andrei Kuzmenko, the Kings haven't scored at all this game! That's pretty good!

3-2 Kraken
2nt int.

The Kings score again on the power play.

Kevin looks like he was Fiala-ing down, but he is able to pass the puck that sets up Andrei Kuzmenko's second goal of the game and the #SeaKraken lead is down to one.

This PK...oof

Ryker Evans goes to the box for closing his hand on the puck. That's not one you see too often.

Quinton Byfield is boxed for hooking and the #SeaKraken will enjoy another power play.

And the second period of this game is

under
way!

#SeaKraken

After one, the #SeaKraken lead by two.

This was a really nice period by the Kraken. They did give up their obligatory power play goal which really needs to stop, but they got a PPG of their own. Eye test to me doesn't match the DTWOM; I thought Seattle was much better.

3-1 Kraken
1st nt.

YOU DUNN GOOFED!

The Kings take a penalty and Vince Dunn with a solo effort scores on the power play and the consequences will never be the same!

#SeaKraken

Adrian Kempe goes to the box for slashing and the #SeaKraken will go back on the power play.

Brandt Clarke sits for interference and the #SeaKraken power play will go to work.

Remember when the #SeaKraken were trailing and we were like "oh no, maybe they don't have it tonight?"

WELL TOO BAD
THEY HAVE IT

(for now)

Adam Larsson receives a beeeyooootiful pass from Chandler Stephenson and the Kraken score twice in 58 seconds to take the lead!

Seattle! Kraken! GOAL!!!

Ryan Winterton steals the puck and it's Shane Wright who is at the appropriate place at the relevant time and the #SeaKraken have responded a goal of their own!

The Kings score on the power play. Andrei Kuzmenko sneaks one going five-hole.

Would it even be a #SeaKraken game if they didn't give up a power play goal?

Jordan Eberle is exiled for the next two minutes for interference and the #SeaKraken will attempt, hopefully successfully, to kill this penalty.

Jacob Melanson gets 2 minutes for roughing Jeff Malott
Jeff Malott gets 2 minutes for roughing Jacob Melanson

We play 4-on-4 for the next two minutes.

#SeaKraken

It's the last game before the Olympic break in a massive division battle. And this game against the Kings is

under
way!

#SeaKraken

Fair point.

Seems vetted 😅

"The Kraken are looking to add scoring." You think Jennifer Botterill is operating with inside information here, given that the GM of the Kraken is her brother?

If so, this would point away from the Kraken being sellers at the trade deadline.
