4 to 3, across the board, all week. Jeff and Joey discuss how tired they are after watching the Seattle Kraken have their 8th game of the season go into overtime after the squad once again had a late lead and why that's been impacting Kraken Pod After Dark. This week's Kraken Reaction (2:50) covers the brutal meltdown to the Edmonton Oilers, why Joey is cautious after taking care of the New York Islanders at home, building moments in a massive win at Rogers Arena against the Vancouver Canucks, and why in the hell the Seattle Kraken cannot take care of the Calgary Flames at Climate Pledge Arena. Philipp Grubauer has to exit last night's game after an apparent injury, and Vince Dunn remans hot with 7 points in his last 7 games, but the team is still struggling to find its identity and consistency, currently sitting in the second Wild Card spot despite being under .500 on the season so far. Joey's panic button date is still intact as his clock on the Seattle Kraken's 2023-2024 season is ticking. In NHL News: it is being reported that in 2024 we will see the return of the All-Star Fantasy Draft. Joey utilizes this as an excuse to ask what is the All-Star Fantasy Draft for this week's No Dumb Questions (34:04) and the boys go into a debate on whether or not this will be good for the league moving forward. Three Stars of the Week covers everything from reflection and gratitude for Thanksgiving, Jeff's runner's high, buying a house, pumpkin beer and seasonal drinking, drum lessons, and much more. Ending, as always, with the Chirp of the Week.

Fresh off an absolute beatdown at the hands of the Colorado Avalanche, Jeff and Joey immediately go into this week's Kraken Reaction (2:38) which features: the return of Turbo, how the Seattle Kraken can never seem to get any momentum going, Grubauer's contract, and what changes have to be made before the two disagree on the trajectory of the team and whether or not the Seattle Kraken should name a Captain.

Oh no, we suck again! The good vibes are being tested after the Kraken lose to Arizona in another shootout while Jeff remains optimistic. This week's Kraken Reaction (3:08) covers what went right in the home game against the Nashville Predators, how the boys can no longer refer to the Calgary Flames as a trash team after they throttle the Kraken, and how the Arizona Coyotes spoil Joey Daccord coming home to Arizona State by handing the Kraken another predictable shootout loss at Mullet Arena. Joey has looked ahead at the schedule and has officially picked a panic button date for the Seattle Kraken and also discussed how Jaden Schwartz has been and continues to be his dark horse candidate for team MVP for 2023-2024. In NHL News, the toothless Sharks finally get their first win and Mason Lohrei, a Louisiana native, becomes the first Louisianan to put on skates in the NHL for the Boston Bruins meanwhile the Edmonton Oilers are in a crisis and have placed Campbell on waivers and the boys discuss whether or not they are going to catch Edmonton at the wrong time when they host them in Seattle this week.

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.

Piper covers everything from what she has seen up close with Matty, expectations for the Seattle Kraken heading into the season, what player she thinks will take the biggest leap, what the opening day roster would look like (hint: nobody knows), finding out she won two Emmy's while vacationing in Paris during the offseason, a health scare she faced last season, her movie bucket list that shocked Twitter (X), and much, MUCH more. Next, a very special edition of No Dumb Questions (1:41:10) as Piper graciously sticks around to answer a question from member of the Kraken Pod Fam Kendall Appell on whether or not the fan experience witnessed during camp and at the Kraken Ice Plex is something that is seen around the NHL or specific to the Seattle Kraken after her daughter had a chance encounter with Shane Wright.

What do we even talk about this week?! Joey covers all the bases of his upcoming European wedding vacation and the two go over his religious upbringing before diving into this week's Kraken Reaction (22:15) which features The Athletic's NHL pipeline rankings (TBC for the Seattle Kraken), the team's top 15 prospects, and how Jeff can sneakily give his new doggo a hockey name without raising any suspicion with the family. Next, perhaps the favorite No Dumb Questions (50:30) - question ever submitted via member of the Kraken Pod Fam Sam via Twitter on the history of the 3 Stars of the Game and who gets to vote on it which has Jeff turn into a character from the 1930's NHL BROUGHT TO YOU BY IMPERIAL OIL! Three Stars of the Week covers everything from Game of Thrones to the Seattle Mariners and Julioooooooo Rodriguez, Mina Kimes roasting dudes on Twitter, international travel, and much more. Ending, as always, with the Chirp of the Week.
