Stop me if you’ve heard this one before, folks. Ron Francis is the General Manager of a team with abysmal goaltending, scoring woes and a bad head coach. You have? Well, too bad. I’m going to talk about it anyway.
There have been a number of times since Francis was named GM of the Kraken where I’ve had to rub my eyes and check if I’m dreaming because it feels that the Kraken are in the exact same position that the Hurricanes were from 2014-2018.
If you’re a Hurricanes fan that paid attention to the team during those years, the problems the Kraken are facing should come as no surprise to you.
