another one that was just so, so much fun to watch. mccann had 2 of 8 goals for the night and it was his 500th career game and it was great to see both donato and borgen score too!! it's always so much fun to have a constant "ANOTHER?!" reaction

this one was incredible. i was actually traveling home after being in seattle for my birthday and not knowing what was happening as i was practically racing to get home was really just. so very something. it was amazing to see the turnaround between the game on the 23rd, and the fact that tolvanen got 2 of the 7 goals was fantastic!!

final score 5 - 3 ✧ away game
very very epic close to a road trip where we did not miss ONCE!!! this game was soo close i was going crazy i thought for sure we had it at first, then for sure we were going to lose, and then. then of course the 3rd period was INSANE. tanev tied the goals in the last two minutes, then yanni won it for us in OT -- the avs didnt even get the puck once!!! crazy. very cool love to see it

i had friends who saw this game in person!!! they're big CBJ fans.. while i do not have many strong feelings for the team, im happy that it was a good game! i was worried for a min bc it really did seem like it was gonna be close LOL and of course all the love for bjorkstrand being back in columbus was rlly sweet to see

final score 5 - 6 ✧ home game
ok. ok. i thought for sure we would at LEAST be an OT loss/win but. ok.. this was definitely the most insane game i've watched yet energy-wise which was exciting but man i wish hrgh. IT'S FINE. i'm normal about everything most certainly.

final score 4 - 2 ✧ home game
FUN TIME!! i attempted to do a drinking game based on the kraken discord server's bingo but so much happened i think i would have died. the whole time i was on the edge of my seat tbh everything felt very fast and aggressive! yanni should have been allowed to fight red wings #8 in the second period fr. i was also hoping maybe ebs would get a hat trick... the dads trip going on was so cute to see and every time they showed the dad club at the game my friends and i would cheer!! very excited to see this win streak keep going, fingers crossed!!!
feb 16 ✧ 2023 ✧ SEA v. PHI
final score 6 - 2 ✧ home game
great game to start this off on; what a night!! i was hoping it would be a shutout, but that's definitely ok, esp. since the flyers are probably my 2nd fav team hehe . everyone did such a good job and beniers and yanni were EXTRA VERY COOL tonight!!!!!! also, the fight in the last 10 sec of the game felt a bit like a cartoon which was fun. yanni getting the big star and post-game on ice interview was a great end!! (also, i watched this game with a friend who will be leaving town. very glad i got to watch a game with him before he leaves ♥)
end of season thoughts, 2022-23
well. it was definitely quite crazy at the end. i wasn't able to keep up with a game log since so many things were happening kind of all at once, including my taking a trip to the westside/seattle to actually go to a game!! (mar 18, v. EDM) it was so much fun to see a game in person, and since it was just before my birthday i splurged on lower bowl tickets :] we were close enough that the broadcast showed us which was wiiild to see after the fact hehe. when i got home things picked up and stayed busy on top of the busy game schedule hence the lapse in the write ups. i've filled in the dates and added a few for ones i remember being notable.
the postseason was really something.. the playoffs energy was very intense and stressful as hell dkfjgdfg it really did suck that so many of the broadcasters/news folks for the NHL looked down on seattle so much. to be honest it really did get to the point of absurdity. it felt like nobody had watched the team at all, all season. so many people were just. convinced seattle was going to get swept in round one and i really had no idea where it was coming from--it seemed like a fantastic match-up and i really wasn't sure who would end up winning between seattle and colorado. narratively, it was so cool to win against the defending champs in only the second year of the team existing...!! the second round was really disappointing in the end since seattle didn't advance further and it really, really felt like they were going to. i originally was like "well, it's just great to be here--anything is better than not being in the SCF at all !" but that went away very fast ^^' in the end of the playoffs and after most trade stuff has happened, im incredibly sad to see a good number of guys i really loved seeing in seattle go elsewhere (and why i have been lamenting non-stop i should never have gotten invested in sports). in the end im so excited for the next season, though, and can't wait to see the kraken continue to prove doubters wrong >:]
