New York. The sparkling, sparkling Seattle Kraken made history last night.
With an 8-5 knockout in Chicago, they became the first team ever to “sweep” a seven-game road trip.
– It was undoubtedly a very successful trip, says striker Andrzej Burakovsky to Sportbladet.
The reality of the Seattle Kraken’s second season in the league just got even more exciting.
Just two days ago, they were the first team in the entire season to beat the Boston Bruins at TD Garden during regular game time, and that’s when they capped off a nearly two-week trip last night with an even more programmatic win in Chicago. , have written themselves in the history books as the first to win by failing during this long road trip.
– But I don’t know if anyone else has taken many long trips either, says Andrei Burakovsky, laughing on the phone from the “Windy City”.
– Fifteen days have passed since we left Seattle. But we certainly played well and had a very successful trip.
“She is a real power”
What do you do well?
– We work hard and constantly work to put the puck deep in the attacking area and when we stand behind the backs of the opponent we are strong.
Do you also really feel like a team?
– Yes, I’ve said that many times before. We do not depend on one or two chains, all our assortments contribute and produce. This is real strength.
Against the Black Hawks, the decision was strikingly quick, the Krakarna team started fiercely and took a 6-1 halftime lead.
– Yes, we were very good and efficient at the start, I think we scored those six goals in the first seven shots, Bora continues.
– Then we released the gas a little bit and that’s understandable after such a start, but not good. We have to learn to work 60 minutes even at times like this.
Several Swedish points
He kicked an amazing goal himself during the opening bid and reached a total of 12 complete scores this season.
– Overall, it’s been going well for the series I’m making with Mattie Berniers and Jordan Eberle. He notes that we make a lot all the time.
At the same time, Alex Wennberg was responsible for two assists while Adam Larsson was responsible for one goal – and the latter, like another Nicklas Lidström, can also boast seven plus in plus / minus stats.
– Is it? I didn’t know that, but it’s amazing. Adam has been stable for a long time and hopefully it continues in the same way in the future, says Andre.
Future Occasions: Now it would be nice to go home, wouldn’t it?
Yes, but it will be a short visit. We play at home against Tampa on Monday and then go straight to Edmonton. A little sweaty, but you just have to bite the bullet.
