RYKER EVANS JOINS THE POD! Kraken Reaction: the playoff push, Ebs extension, and an interview with Ryker Evans. NHL News: trade deadline recap. #NoDumbQuestions: faceoff circles? 3 Stars of the Week.

PARTY ON, GARTH! Joey tempts Jeff's fate on a ladder before the boys get into this week's Kraken Reaction (7:26) which covers how the Seattle Kraken went switch with the peggers, why tonight's matchup against the Las Vegas Golden Knights is do-or-die for the team, updated playoff standings, Jordan Eberle's contract extension, and what Alex Wennberg to the New York Rangers tells Joey about Ron's outlook on the team. In NHL News the two break down some of the bigger moves across the league and unfortunately have to make a case for the Golden Knights after their front office once again utilizes the LTIR loophole to free up cap space and add to an already loaded roster in hopes of winning back-to-back championships as well as moves by the Winnipeg Jets who could surprise some teams in the playoffs and Jeff and Joey's disagreement on what the Detroit Red Wings didn't do at the trade deadline. Next, Ryker Garth Evans (43:20) joins the podcast to discuss where his head is currently at with the squad, eating chicken parm with Tye Kartye, growing up in Calgary, his hit part on Tenny's Talks, playing with Connor Bedard as a Regina Pat, growing his game, napping when his name was called during the NHL Draft and MUCH more. No Dumb Questions (1:17:08) comes from member of the Kraken Pod Fam Jess who asks how the refs determine which faceoff dot to use?! Three Stars of the Week has the boys talking about everything from a rainy flag football game, rewatching Game of Thrones, Dune 2 in iMAX, Joey's daily crossword habit, springing forward into awesomeness, and Ryker Evans and the PR crew behind the Seattle Kraken. Ending, as always, with the Chirp of the Week. Subscribe: On All podcasting apps, rate & review on iTunes, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify!
