Apologies for the delay in getting this one published... Had some technical difficulties, but we got those sorted. The Kraken released their third jerseys this week, but the guys recorded before that happened. So they *also* recorded a reaction to those on Thursday and spliced that into the episode. It creates for some fun time-warping shenanigans.
Also in this episode, a big prospect discussion in advance of Kraken Rookie Camp, pl...

After Darren took a 5-star beating on the last episode, he's back from his hiatus (which he talks about quite a bit), and several listeners came rushing to his aide on this week's episode.
