Kraken And Avalanche Exchange Handshakes Following Seattle's Game 7 Victory

COLORADO 10-7 IN THE THIRD. 29 BLOCKS. 15 DIFFERENT PLAYERS WITH SHOT BLOCKS. JARED BEDNAR AND DAVE HAKSTOL, ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. >> Shane: I DON’T KNOW WHAT MORE YOU CAN SAY ABOUT ROUND ONE THIS YEAR. THE LAST TWO STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS DONE. PRESIDENT’S TROPHY WINNERS, DONE. WHAT A GAME BY SEATTLE. >> Kenny: THE KRAKEN WILL FACE THE DALLAS STARS AND HOW ABOUT PHILIPP GRUBAUER, THE FORMER AVALANCHE GOALTENDER — >> Eddie: HOW GOOD DOES THAT HAVE TO FEEL FOR HIM? >> Kenny: BRILLIANT. 6 OF THE 7 TEAMS THAT HAVE ADVANCED HAVE DONE IT ON THE ROAD. >> Eddie:

WHAT A GAME THERE BY OLIVER BJORSTRAND. I DON’T THINK WE’VE EVER SEEN A FIVE — PROBABLY CIGARETTES DID IT — GRETZ DID IT, MARIO, BUT HE COULD HAVE HAD FIVE GOALS TONIGHT. WASN’T HE? >> Shane: HE WAS ALL OVER. AND GREAT HIS OWN END DEFENSIVELY. GRUBAUER, HIS BEST PERIOD WAS THE FIRST. HE KEPT HIS TEAM IN IT. JUST A COMPLETE EFFORT. THAT’S WHAT IT’S BEEN ALL YEAR FOR THE SEATTLE TEAM. YOU WATCH THEM UP CLOSE, EDDIE, CONTRIBUTIONS UP AND DOWN THE LINEUP, AND THAT’S WHAT IT TOOK HERE TO GET IT DONE. >> Eddie: A 40-POINT

IMPROVEMENT FROM LAST SEASON. A COUPLE OF OUTSTANDING MOVES BY GENERAL MANAGER RON FRANCIS AND HIS STAFF. THEY GET TO 100 POINTS AND NOBODY GAVE HIM A CHANCE AGAINST

THE COLORADO AVALANCHE. AND, SHANE, WE TALKED ABOUT IT. KENNY, HOW COMFORTABLE THEY ARE ON THE ROAD, IN THE FOUR GAMES THAT THEY PLAYED HERE IN DENVER, THEY WERE THE BETTER TEAM IN ALL FOUR GAMES. AND THEY ENDED UP WINNING THREE OF THE FOUR. AGAINS
