This episode of The Kraken Pod features hosts Jeff and Joey reacting to recent Seattle Kraken games and discussing NHL news. The hosts, passionate and long-time Kraken analysts, provide fan-focused commentary and insider perspectives. They recap the Kraken's 6-4 home victory over the Philadelphia Flyers, highlighting a four-goal second period from Gourde, Eberle, and Wright. The hosts analyze a significant 2-1 overtime win against the Calgary Flames, praising Brandon Montour's slick assist on Jordan Eberle's game-winner. They discuss Joey Daccord's viral "zoomies" celebration and his impressive physical conditioning shown in a post-game locker room photo. The episode notes Vince Dunn's placement on LTIR, which the hosts see as a potential salary cap management move. A major topic is goaltender Philipp Grubauer's struggles, referencing a New York Times article ranking his contract as the sixth-worst for goalies in the NHL. The hosts express frustration over a 3-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche occurring during the recording. They debate the NHL's "Frozen Frenzy" event, with Joey finding it cool but Jeff criticizing its scheduling against the NBA season tip-off. The hosts reveal the Kraken front office received zero votes in a poll ranking the NHL's top executives. Jeff shares a personal gambling story about a $250 futures bet on Connor Hellebuyck to win the Vezina Trophy at +1200 odds. They break news that Zach Pagnotta, the Kraken's second-ever employee and social media mastermind, is leaving the organization. The tone is highly conversational, humorous, and unfiltered, featuring frequent tangents and self-deprecating jokes between the two friends. Die-hard Seattle Kraken fans who enjoy detailed game analysis mixed with locker room humor will love this episode. Listeners seeking a tightly structured, formal hockey analysis or those annoyed by betting ads and personal anecdotes might want to skip it.

As heard by us

A loose, funny Kraken hang that treats team news, league oddities, and fan chatter as equal parts of the show.

Kraken Pod keeps things loose here: the Kraken are doing pretty damn good, merch gets its last call, and the team lands on one list while missing another, both treated as bad news.
