That kid is a freshman at Bellevue High School. Simply amazing.
Bagga plays gigs around Seattle, and has plenty of his stuff up on YouTube:
That kid can absolutely shred. I’m sure we’ll be hearing more from him in the future. Good on the NHL for find him.
As for the game, the Kraken took an early 1-0 lead and held that lead at the end of the first period.
