We can point to many reasons why the #SeaKraken won't make the playoffs this season, but near the top of the list would be 0-9 in second half of back to backs. 18 possible points left on the table. Just win a few of those.. a 4-5 record would have put them within a point of a wild card spot.

A soggy Sunday in the PNW so why not settle in for a little #SeaKraken  hockey. Pregame starts at 2:30 on KONG TV in Seattle. Prime Video and across the Kraken Hockey Network. Kraken going for their third straight win

Great story that we will discuss in our Kraken pregame show starting at 2:30 on KONG/Prime Video and across the Kraken Hockey Network.

Great article by @bytimbooth.bsky.social on @seattlekraken.com Assistant Coach Jessica Campbell. www.seattletimes.com/sports/krake...

Will wait until tomorrow's radio show to express feelings about the Hall of Fame vote that inexplicably left Mike Holmgren out. Again. Need some time...

As mentioned in here @crawfordchrisv.bsky.social and myself will be on with @iandfurness.bsky.social at 1:00 today more or less because the mere sound of Jerry Dipoto’s voice irritates the fanbase to such an extent. Seems like a problem for your entertainment property, imo.

In honor of Black History Month and #SeaKraken's celebration of that tomorrow, please make some time to get to know more about our friend and anthem singer, Tommie Burton www.nhl.com/kraken/news/...

I mean, sure. youtu.be/Bu68T0HqJOo

Going to hop on with @iandfurness.bsky.social at 1220 PT to talk about @keithlaw.bsky.social disrespecting the Mariners system again on 93.3 KJR. He could have ranked them negative first but he just hates them so much. Link to listen: 933kjr.iheart.com

Afternoon bump for the Light Bat. Transactions, rumors, a mild rant about how the Mariners *gestures broadly*, and a respectful discussion on ruptured testicles. thelightbat.substack.com/p/winter-fun...

Getting ready for an early game today on KONG TV, Prime Video and across the Kraken Hockey Network 12:30 pregame for #Seakraken  at Buffalo

Working next to the @seahawksofficial.com digital team for years was always awe inspiring- the talent and passion is easy for fans to see in the work they do. And nobody is better than my friend Erika! Cool story on her work. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKp1...

This is so true. I know many want to criticize "newsrooms" but the role local news plays when events such as this tragedy in LA or even in New Orleans last week is still important.

I spoke about this with @iandfurness.bsky.social on KJR yesterday shortly after firing was announced. I believe Macdonald wanted to empower his coaches, show faith/trust in them. He wasn't stepping on toes with offensive coaches. But he obviously felt that wasn't working well with Grubb.

I hereby declare The Light Bat open for business in 2025 with the weekly roundup of Mariner news and, crucially, non-news. open.substack.com/pub/thelight...

Looking back at 2024, our list of most-read articles is like a snapshot in time. What does this collection of headlines tell us about the state of craft beer? washingtonbeerblog.com/a-look-back-...

Programming note for today- Radio show on KJR is 10-1, switching with Gregg Bell who is on his way back from LA. Hugh Millen with Hardcore Football at Noon, @sandonfl.bsky.social at 11 and WSU AD Anne McCoy at 10:20. Lots do discuss with Seahawks season coming to an end.

Reminder for Kraken fans. Weird, early start. Not for national tv either- we are on KONG TV in Seattle. Prime Video. And across the numerous states on your normal affiliates on the Kraken Hockey Network. 4:30 Pregame 5:00 Opening faceoff Seattle trying to build off that crazy comeback Saturday

Mixed in with all the football today, we have a matinee affair in Vancouver. Kraken and Canucks. Pregame at 12:30 and 1PM faceoff. KING TV and across the Kraken Hockey Network.

30 minutes away from Kraken Pregame show on the Kraken Hockey Network. KONG-TV in Seattle and Prime Video, and across the KHN. Seattle at Vegas. 6:30 pregame, 7PM puck drop.

Two names I am hearing are interested in vacant WSU job - Alabama asst HC and co-OC JaMarcus Shephard - Missouri offensive coordinator Kirby Moore Go Cougs

Listened back to MollyWhop Monday (on a Tuesday) via the podcast while in traffic on my way home. @iandfurness.bsky.social cackling over @nathanhb.bsky.social quotes from Light Bat with @crawfordchrisv.bsky.social was truly delightful.

Let the hate begin. Could honestly make a case for and against all of the top 5

Bruins fans in full force pregame for Kraken vs Boston

December 4th, 2018 David Bonderman is welcomed to the NHL as the founding owner of the leagues 32nd franchise. RIP sir. And thank you!

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of David Bonderman, founding owner of the Seattle Kraken. A visionary leader, David helped bring the NHL’s 32nd franchise to Seattle. His contributions to business, conservation, music & sports will long be remembered. → bit.ly/Bonderman2024

Confirmed- he will be on at 1:30 and we won't be talking about anything other than "what if" they sign or trade to upgrade!

And it’s done for 2024. It’s a privilege to have a small say in this award. We can’t disclose who we voted for until after winner is announced on Saturday, but it was an easy #1 for me with a lot more work to pick 2 and 3.

Early hockey on the air. Kraken wrapping up a 4 game trip in MSG against the Rangers. Faceoff moments away on the Kraken Hockey Network.

Friendly reminder that you can catch me and @iandfurness.bsky.social on 93.3 KJR Seattle today at 1:00 PM to talk everything #Seahawks! *Had a time miscommunication, so it'll be usual 1 PM time, not 1:30!

Reminder to my great guest Corbin- 1:00 not 1:30!! All thanks to soldbyjimm.com

Will definitely take a listen as I am interested in the future. Also, I hope Sounders fans appreciate the passion and knowledge that Jackson and the crew provide every week. This has to be the best radio crew in the MLS. Congrats on another great season.

Fun day at the VMAC yesterday for the weekly hour with Mike Holmgren who is on the verge of getting into the Hall of Fame

BIG show today. #Seahawks CB Riq Woolen at 12:30. Steve Palazzolo from @the33rdteam.bsky.social at 1. Brandon Huffman from @247sports.bsky.social talking national signing day at 1:30 and Mike Holmgren at 2. All live from The Virginia Mason Athletic Center on 93.3 KJR FM

We are ready to go! @SeattleKraken at @Canes First of 4 in a row on the road for #SeaKraken  Pregame show now on KONG TV, Prime Video and across the Kraken Hockey Network

ICYMI The Light Bat, a Mariners newsletter, is now a thing that exists. You all have been much kinder and more enthusiastic about this than I expected or hoped, and it really means a lot to me. Thanks! thelightbat.substack.com/p/the-light-...

I know the NET rankings and Quad system aren't everyone's cup of tea, but the WSU hoops win last night was significant. The shorthanded Cougs go from 87 to 69 and are now 2-2 in the first two quadrants. Could be big come March

Long, long way to go in this hoops season, but for WSU to go to Nevada and win as a double digit underdog, with all of the injuries they are dealing with, is impressive. Quad 1 win for Cougs. Could prove to be massive.

Hardcore Football with Hugh Millen coming up next on 93.3 KJR FM. How in the hell did the Seahawks win that game with all that went wrong? The easy answer is Leonard Williams. But Hugh will go much deeper than that on HC FB.
