Philipp Grubauer is wearing a Native American themed goalie mask on Indigenous Peoples Night. NHL was made aware of his plans by team in advance and apparently did not object as long as he intends to use it beyond the one game.

Joey Daccord was asked if he thought about going for the empty net.
"You're up 3-0, empty net, they dump the puck...*Joey cuts off the reporter*
"Yes."

Vince Dunn says he hopes whatever contract gets worked out is in both his and the team's favor.
"I want nothing but to continue to wear this jersey for many years to come...I'm all in and I love this organization."

Joey Daccord says he couldn't be more grateful for the fan support in Seattle.
"Myself and all my best friends and my closest family at the game will never forget 47,000 people chanting my name. That's that's what you dream of when you're a little kid."

She's the second woman to ever coach an NHL game, and first for the Kraken.

Interesting report from

on ESPN's The Point regarding Dave Hakstol.
Kaplan says she was told that at exit meetings, a handful of "pretty significant players" made it clear to management that they "don't want to play on this team in the future if Dave Hakstol is
Tye Kartye took a number and stood up for his teammate.
He delivers a beating to Tomas Pospisil after Pospisil's hit on Adam Larsson earlier in the game.
Unfortunately, there's no way around it, the Kraken wasted one of the best game 7 goaltending performances ever. Grubauer was fantastic tonight and the team in front of him wasn't.

practice today.
He's missed the last 5 games with an undisclosed injury after a late hit from Cale Makar.
Elliotte Friedman says Shane Wright got a call from Wayne Gretzky last night as he was waiting to be picked. Gretzky saw what was happening, asked for Wright's number, and gave him a call.

Jordan Eberle says he thinks Ron Francis and the org have done an exceptional job.
"I'm excited to be here. My wife and I love playing in Seattle. It's a great place to be when you wake up to the mountains and lakes...I think it's just been first class"
Yanni Gourde mixes it up with Josh Manson, who's 6 inches taller and 44 pounds heavier.
Crowd breaks into a "YANNI" chant. This Seattle crowd is bringing it tonight.
Morgan Geekie hilariously interrupted Carson Soucy's scrum.
MG: "Souce! Great job tonight!"
Q to Soucy: Were there some Fs in there giving you room?
MG: "I was!"
CS: "someone was net-front drawing all the attention so it must've been 67."
MG: "No, I wasn't on the ice." 😂
It's a good time to be a rookie in Seattle. 3 rookie All-Star/Pro Bowl selections in the last year.

One more Shane Wright story today. A deaf fan walked up to Shane's table during an autograph session. After a quick greeting, Shane immediately sprinted back back to the locker room.
He came back with a stick, which he then signed. Definitely made the fan's day.

4 x 7.35 for Vince Dunn.
Solid deal for both sides. Kraken lock in Dunn's prime years through age 30 at a reasonable number, while Dunn sets himself up for one more potential big payday.
#SEAKraken
Matty Beniers' exceptional work ethic gets rewarded. Takes a big hit, then puts his head down and goes to work.
You know that one felt good for him.
