Thanks SC - The Seattle Kracken? I was not aware Seattle had a hockey team (had to Google). Are they by any chance owned by Sidney Powell? (kiddin')Keep your eye on Canadian Penny Oleksiak. She's been competing in the Olympics since 16 and has 6 medals by age 21. Apparently she has trained with Michael Phelps. Her brother plays in the NHL, was just signed to the expansion Seattle Kraken.
She could have another couple of olympics in her.
