GAME HIGHLIGHTS ARE PRESENTED BY BETWAY
After a scoreless first period, Connor McDavid opened the scoring for the Oilers five minutes into the second frame. He took a pass from Leon Draisaitl, broke into Seattle’s zone, and deked out Joey Daccord before tucking the puck in backhand.
The Kraken responded quickly as Jared McCann made the score 1-1 just under two minutes later. Jordan Eberle threw a shot on net that Stuart Skinner turned aside but McCann crashed the net and had the rebound bounce off of him and in.
Kraken tie it! They get a much needed bounce off Jared McCann 1:58 after the McDavid goal. Huge response. 1-1
Seattle took a 2-1 lead a couple of minutes later. Some good forechecking work by former Oiler Kailer Yamamoto helped the Kraken get possession in Edmonton’s end and Pierre-Edouard Bellemare deflected a shot from the point past Skinner.
