It was to be. The Bruins nixed "Bears."

Similarly, I wonder if the Red Wings might nix Kraken.

Yeah, when it's spelt with a C, it just reminds me of the old SNL, Phil McCracken joke.

They're on a fishing boat... it seems clear to me. Unfortunately they're going with Sockeyes.

Could be a swerve. Tomorrow the video concludes with a kraken destroying the riverboat. Or ferry. Whatever that was

With Jerry Bruckheimer as an owner, you’d expect something such as this to be of a high standard.

And we’ll know what the goal horn will sound like now too.
