Matt Berniers praises Jordan Eberle in exit interview

The Kraken players spoke to the media as the got the remainder of their stuff at the arena before the off-season and Matt Berniers spoke to the media on Jordan Eberle.

Berniers spoke of how great a leader Eberle is for the Kraken, addidng that it's not only his leadership but his offensive skills as well. Berniers finished by saying he loves playing with Eberle and the next plan is to go and get him a Stanley Cup.





The 21 year-old forward had a bit of a drop off in production this season posting 37 points in 77 games after a career year last season with 57 points in 80 games. Berniers may have had a slow year but is still very young and has proved he can be a scorer in the NHL.

Kraken veteran Eberle just signed a two year deal at the deadline with an average of $4.75 million per year. The 33 year-old proved once again this season that he is still an offensive threat as he put up 44 points in 77 games for the Kraken this season.

Seattle may have had a disappointing season but it is clear that the future is bright for this young franchise.
