IT'S TIME FOR AN INTERVENTION! Kraken Reaction: Jeff goes IN on the team, no redemption for Canner, and gut check time. #NoDumbQuestions: why dump the puck? 3 Stars of the Week.

THE Kraken Pod: a Seattle Kraken and NHL podcast

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH THIS TEAM?! The boys get right into this week's Kraken Reaction (1:50) where Jeff lets the team have it as to why it's an issue when no one wanted to step it up to drop the gloves against Cale Makar in honor of defending McCann and how that's problematic for the team moving forward in the 2023-2024 season. Jeff and Joey discuss the principle behind it all, how Colorado's tilt against Eberle establishes an identity, speculation on why the team is struggling so bad to start the season, and a recap of the games against the St. Louis Blues and Nashville Predators. After Jeff cools down the two hop into No Dumb Questions (41:53) which features member of the Kraken of the Kraken Pod Fam Jared Ostrader who wants to know what is the benefit to dumping the puck into the offensive zone? Joey breaks down his own analysis plus research and Jeff talks about strong defensive teams that use the blue line to their advantage and why temporarily giving up possession of the puck can actually be beneficial to a team that is looking to score. Three Stars of the Week covers everything from Jeff's blood pressure medication (which he made need to double up on after this episode), the MLB playoffs and why Joey is riding with the Phillies all the way to the bank, some personal family stuff and why Jeff was in Michigan last weekend, Halloween parties and parades, and all of the things that the Kraken Pod has going on to keep the content rolling even when the Seattle Kraken aren't rolling themselves. Ending, as always, with the Chirp of the Week.
