A New Chapter for Kylian Mbappe
Mbappe was originally born on the outskirts of France and for seven years competed for Paris St. Germain. Rumors swirled for a year or more soccer’s best star would return to his home country but that did not come to fruition.
On Monday, it was announced by greed, likely council politics and ransom Mbappe signed with the less succeeding Real Madrid in the Champions League. Meaning, the Parisan who was paid with high respects of a tifo and so on recently for a period of time in a place he won the Golden Boot six consecutive seasons is traveling to Spain where he will meet with the likes of upper echelon teams such as Barcelona and Manchester United.
It is almost the sensation fans processed when charming David Beckham left his respective country for Manchester United except there does not seem to be apparent backlash when Mbappe steps on the field and delivers for a league that has seen legends come and go such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, etc.
Mbappe is on the soccer world summit now at 26 years of age. Bi Bi France.

Kraken Have Krak the Code For Blysma
The Seattle Kraken have been a young upstart NHL organization for the better part of a couple years but today they just cracked the crackling, divisive code by hiring coach Dan Bylsma.
Blysma was known for his first-year championship run with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2009 and was a name to be reckoned with alongside Sidney Crosby who performed his best season under the now Kraken coach. Blysma previously coached for the Buffalo Sabres back in 2016 but his cooling opportunity came for his first and longest tenure with the more successful East team.
Not many coaches ice at practice or suit up beyond three years since Blysma’s exit into the shadows. It is ironically unbelievable to say Blysma has not been coaching in the NHL or at least in the West since Buffalo. He led initially to a .615 winning percentage and was a coach soundly talked about.
Today, Blysma has worked with Seattle Kraken AHL talent on the surface of further not developing rookies but chaining ties to associate general manager and former partner Jason Botterill.
Meaning, Seattle is cracking the code with a promising coach, and a deep roster to work through its hurdles of one mere postseason appearance in the last three seasons under Dave Hakstol who came from the Philadelphia Flyers and college ranks and proved to be a squandering duck if Anaheim is most likely hiring.
The Seattle Kraken is on the way to possibly a power struggle but in the meantime, general manager Ron Francis maneuvered the next best step, feasibly, for the city of Seattle and its fans and that is crack the code by hiring Blysma to definitively continue his efforts in developing talent from a systematic standpoint to bring home and break the Cup record for the earliest Stanley win possible.
