Welcome the Cheap Seats Sports Channel! Cheap Seats Sports is here to bring you sports content of the highest quality that you can expect from people who sit in the upper deck. Mostly this channel will be focused on the NFL, NHL, MLB, and NBA, and maybe some F1 here and there just to keep you on your toes.
It might also be worth mentioning that Seattle sports may get the spotlight more often than other cities. However all efforts will be made to keep bias out of any videos comparing franchises. So if you are a 49ers, Mike Trout, or Canucks (soon) fan, know that in spite the mistakes that have led you to make these poor life choices, this is a safe place... usually.
I try to post at least once a week. News, top 5/10 lists, history, and even the occasional rant are all fair game, sometimes even at the same time. I like numbers so many videos will have strong factual backing, but there will be plenty of opinions thrown around at times too. So you should have plenty to argue with me on.

Man, great video. I’m german and a huge hockey fan, especially for the nhl. You could be a great teacher for this sports, love it.
Super cool thank you! I am new to hockey! My fav team is the Panthers!
Good time to be a Panthers fan
@@CheapSeatsSports yeah this play off with the Oilers is gonna be amazing!

Wtf you cooked overseas?
I looked up how to pronounce his name, it's Biles-muh, where "Biles" is pronounced like the name "Miles" but with a B.
The extent to which violence is accepted but behaviours like spearing and kicking are practically unheard of is a very interesting social phenomenon
Well to be fair kicking in hockey is literally life threatening, but I get what you mean.
@@CheapSeatsSports depends how they kick. Hitting with the shin is usually not life threatening (not that it doesn't easily produce injury), or with anything other than the blade for that matter unless it lands on the neck or head or something like that. Blade on some parts of the padding also wouldn't be life threatening (again, not that it isn't intolerably dangerous)
Great listen hockey is sick seems like almost every sport is just running back & forth trying to get a ball into a goal but hockey takes it to the EXTREME 💪💪
I'm optimistic
I've got a good feeling about this move
I hope it's right!
Guess what… Me and Bylsma have the same birthday 🥳
Neat!
Thanks for the update .👍🙏GO KRAKEN!
I was bummed out too when Rod the Bod wasn't available but hopefully Bylsma will turn things around just like how Rick Tocchet & Paul Maurice is doing
Yeah I was hopeful Rod would be available when they got knocked out, but Carolina made the smart move.
Appreciate your breakdown. This kind of move makes the most sense and I’ve got no qualms with it really.
Yeah really the only obvious "problem" with it is that it isn't an interesting move no one saw coming. But that can also be a good thing.
There is no extra "a" in Dan Bylsma's last name. It is not Dan By-al-a-sma. Might want to spend a few minutes learning how to pronounce his name if you are wanting to represent the future Kraken.
I think this is a good move, and I know there are many nuances, but I do find it a tad ironic when people cut the cord are vocal about how much better it is to not pay for cable and then have a hard time watching what they wanna watch😂
9:25 Whether it's specifically in the rule book or not, it is widely understood that if a high stick causes bleeding it is an automatic double minor penalty.
True. The rules intentionally leave room for the officials to call what they see as fit for the situation and almost always blood means a double minor.
7:53 high sticking over the crossbar is only when it leads to a goal. A player can high stick up to his shoulders to play the puck.
You didn't mention how a fighting penalty is 5 minutes and doesn't result in a loss of manpower
how penalties work in the NHL...not well and not consistently
True
👍🏼🏒🥅
Thanks
No problem
I'm 3 years late but this was amazing. My kids are getting into hockey which I've never really watched and this was made to where even I can understand the basics of the sport in regards to the lines and positions so thank you. I'll be subscribing for more lessons!
Glad to help! I'll be making more of these 101 videos over the summer and then I cover the Kraken in the NHL during the season.
thank you so much! been playing sports all my life but new to Hockey! the visual references help a ton.
Glad to help! Welcome to hockey!
Do you have a discord channel?
I don't yet but I have it on my list of things to get ready for next season!
@CheapSeatsSports That's great. Being in the UK hockey fans are very rare so be great to have somewhere to be able to talk to fellow hockey and Kraken fans
It's kind of interesting how a team ended up in Oakland in the first place. The main reason they ended up there was because the TV contract signed with CBS at the time of the expansion required there to be a team in northern California. They preferred to put them in San Francisco, but when they couldn't find an adequate arena, they turned to a then-new Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum instead. After the Seals' struggles in their first year, the owner of the team was negotiating with Labatt Breweries to have them purchase them and move them to Vancouver, but the NHL voted it down as so not to jeopardize their American TV deal.
I agree with almost all of these except Defensive Forward. You really should have included Tanev. Name one other player who literally sacrificed his body and/or stick almost every game to block pucks? I lost count of how many times he handed off his stick to a team mate whose stick broke and then used his body to block shots.
Tanev probably does have the highest number of heroic blocks as a forward and I could've included him but there is more to good defense than just blocking shots. Still he'd be easy top 5
Thanks for this. I thought you nailed the majority of the categories. Felt very celebratory. GO KRAKEN!
What about when the refs not making any penalty calls on the opposite team but are calling them on the home team especially when the opposite team is tripping, slashing, high sticking etc.?!It’s like free for all hockey! The only thing they call is icing!
Penalty shots seems to be really rare.
They are fairly rare yes usually only a few happen a month during the regular season which is not many considering the number of games there are.
They arent contending....but they arent tanking either. They are just mediocre. Not a good position to be in.
Thank you!
You're welcome!

As far as this video goes. I gotta say I'm HIGHLY ENCOURAGED by Hakstol being canned. I didn't like the hire from day one. I firmly believe that in the NHL you need a coach who has emotion, and will fight for you. This team like I'm year 1 had ZERO FIGHT. It takes a RIDICULOUS hit on Beniers that nearly broke his neck by Cole "The Turtle" Sillinger and another Potential neck breaker on Dunn from Marcia Popsicle in Calgary for this team to show it's fangs. It should NOT TAKE a near life threatening hit on a teammate for you to drop the gloves. I absolutely believe that the orders to not fight and to relax came from Mr Stoneface Dave Hakstol. NO NO NO that's not what this team needed. They needed the ability to stand up for themselves and they need their coach behind them to do it. He just wasn't. And even the Leah Hexstall goes to Bat for you on National TV during a game. Your job is over period point blank. Dave may be a great hockey mind but he's more suited to a assistant or associate coach. He's not a good HC. If he was then Philly never would have let him go
I do agree they need to have a little more fight and toughness as a team. You can't afford to have your Top Defensemen be the guy that goes to fight players after a bad hit. I think Kartye might be playing into that role a little bit but we'll see.
I asked this on a previous video and never got a reply. I pay for ESPN+. with the Kraken going to Amazon prime now so I need to have Amazon prime to watch them play or can I stay on ESPN+?? I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't know. None of the forums can answer that question
Please, dont stop these series everrrrrr
I believe you make your own luck. This team was just not having fun playing. The poor effort the last half of the season, players body language was unenthusiastic to say the least for a lot of games. The constant shuffling of lines I’m sure made it hard to gain any continuity or consistency. And what they did to McCann was completely confusing. He was literally a man without a line, didn’t they have him on the 4th line for a few games ? Just bizarre. Yamamoto was obviously in Dave’s doghouse I really didn’t think he played all that bad when he got an opportunity which wasn’t very often. Last year was an outlier much like the 2001 mariners a bunch of players playing above their bubble gum card. This team is struggling to score just like year one.
Here in Seattle we don’t get a lot of pro sports championships. So even though this was 107 years ago and the team no longer exists we’ll take what we can get
At least not in the big 4 North American leagues. The Sounders and Storm have won a few tho.
Great job! Finally , looked all over for this basic info……everyone else speaks as if the house is on fire!
Glad to help!
I don't feel that luck is the main problem, but more the inability to take advantage of the few chances they were handed. i didn't understand it then any more than I do now. While it's not clear what will remedy the team's difficulties (not sure about a coach change for instance) I am encouraged that the Kraken management is ready and willing to take drastic measures to improve the team and change its fortunes. Looking forward to the new coach and other (I hope) improvements. GO KRAKEN!
Yeah, luck was definitely not the main factor for the struggle. I agree that it's good to see that management and ownership is going to be active in trying to make improvements.
