Kraken Rival Has Most Fascinating Story Of Stanley Cup Playoffs

Editor's Note: In baseball terms, journalist Carol Schram would be described as a "5-tool" player. She writes about hockey, business, entertainment, travel and lifestyle.

She's a The Hockey News columnist, and the list of legacy and online media outlets she's contributed to - from the New York Times to Toronto Globe & Mail to CBC - is longer than Zdeno Chara.

Later segments of our five-part Kraken Reaction conversation with hockey columnist Carol Schram will focus on Seattle Kraken-specific topics.

We'll get into the Kraken's search for a new coach, and the ramifications of the team's new TV and streaming deals.

With Carol being Vancouver-based, topic one concerns the Oilers-Canucks 2nd round Stanley Cup series.

The series, currently tied 1-1, resumes Sunday at Rogers Place in Edmonton. We delve into the remarkable story of Vancouver third string goalie Arturs Silovs (above photo), whether his Cinderella run will continue, or whether McDavid & Co. will turn him and the Canucks back into pumpkins.
