Friday, October 18th, 2024

Eeli Tolvanen, Jordan Eberle, and Shane Wright each found the net within a three-minute span in the second period, helping the Seattle Kraken secure a 6-4 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers.

Tolvanen started the scoring at 14:57, with Eberle following at 17:44 and Wright shortly after at 17:52, establishing a strong lead for the Kraken.

The Flyers attempted a comeback in the third period with goals from Cam York and Jamie Drysdale, but Oliver Bjorkstrand's breakaway score at 14:51 kept the Kraken ahead.

Earlier in the first period, Scott Laughton notched two goals for the Flyers, while the Kraken saw scoring contributions from Jared McCann and Brandon Montour.

This match also marked Chandler Stephenson's 500th NHL game, during which he provided an assist, while Philipp Grubauer recorded 21 saves for Seattle.

Laughton has opened the season with two goals and three points across four games for Philadelphia.

This victory represented Kraken head coach Dan Bylsma's first home win.

The Kraken ended the game with 12 assists in total, with both Andre Burakovsky and Jared McCann tallying two each. McCann achieved a three-point night, marking his first of the season.

The Flyers' next game is at home against Vancouver on Saturday, and the Kraken will play the Calgary Flames at their own venue.
