All... I'm participating in the Hockey Challenge again this year and I need some help raising some money. My firm Hunnex and Shoemaker will once again be helping to sponsor the event. ANY amount of money would be very appreciated. Help me get to my goal! https://t.co/MINHnsziFF

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

This is the most clueless, poorest run franchise in the NHL and players around the league know it.

[Emerald City Hockey @EmeraldCityHky]

Jason Robertson turned down 8 x $15M from the Kraken.

Really highlights Seattle's issues in attracting top-tier talent.

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Since this will likely be the Kraken in about... oh... 7 years or so... I know who I'm adopting for the playoffs.

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

I say this as respectfully as I can. Go fuck yourself.

If Sonics want history back, Seattle owes Thunder an apology (via @The_ThunderWire):

what is seattle even doing

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Maybe the Kraken should…. I don’t know…. Just play Shane Wright? Smh #seakraken

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Kinda sounded a little like someone tapping a garbage can.

[SleeperAstros @SleeperAstros]

Mariners fans cheering as George Springer got hit by a pitch and then proceeded to boo after he stood up

Tells you everything you need to know

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

I’m not a religious man. But I felt this deep down in my core.

[Brock Huard @BrockHuard]

Isaiah 6:8

I see you Bryce Miller

@Grumpus_McDavus 🤣

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Poverty take. He’s not dying. He’s a known cheater. He leaned into the pitch. Save the self righteousness.

[Joe Fann @Joe_Fann]

Not a great look from Mariners fans tbh

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Holy. Shit. #TridentsUp

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Not a single ounce of sympathy for these umpires who resisted ABS. #SeizeTheMoment

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Dear baseballs Gods. We’ve suffered enough. Please. #goms

Maybe we’re playing this fun game where we acquire players who aren’t good and get rid of any players who actually ARE good at hockey.

Chris Johnston: Seattle might be compelled to move someone like Jared McCann - Chris Johnston Show

[EvolvingWild @EvolvingWild]

When you can sign this kind of player for 4 x $4.5M, you just gotta do it

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Genuinely curious if the analytics department at @SeattleKraken got fired and they just never told us it happened.

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

@joncavin I tend to agree but boy oh boy do we give them a run for their money!

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

I literally have no earthly idea what the Kraken are doing. I’ve been so thrilled to have an NHL team to root for but my goodness…. Are we the most clueless franchise in the league?

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Honestly don’t know how RF keeps his job at this point. Granted ownership screwed him by insisting we attempt to get competitive this year…. But there have just been far, far too many mistakes. #seakraken

[Emerald City Hockey @EmeraldCityHky]

Former #SEAKraken Ryan Donato and Morgan Geekie have both hit the 30-goal mark after tonight's Bruins-Blackhawks game.

30 goals would lead the Kraken in scoring by a sizeable margin.

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

Is the goal to win cups? Or just collect $$$ by being a “sustained playoff team”.

[Tyler Hunnex @TylerHunnex]

This franchise is so delusional it actually makes me sad. You aren’t close. And being impatient is what led to this disaster of a season. Until ownership gets a clue and looks at themselves in the mirror…. I fear what the next 4-5 seasons will look like.

[𝘿𝙖𝙫𝙮 𝙅𝙤𝙣𝙚𝙨' 𝙇𝙤𝙘𝙠𝙚𝙧 𝙍𝙤𝙤𝙢 @DavyJonesLR]

#Seakraken CEO Tod Leiweke just provided his ‘state of the union’ on the franchise on @933KJR.

After expressing excitement about the team’s prospect pool— specifically highlighting Berkly Catton’s season— he elaborated on ownership’s drive to win sooner rather than later:
