The Kraken saw goals from Shane Wright and Andre Burakovsky, marking four losses in their last six games.

Meier's decisive goal, coming 53 seconds into the third period, broke a 2-2 tie.

Burakovsky initially put Seattle ahead, but Luke Hughes quickly equalized.

Wright restored Seattle's lead before Bratt tied the game once more, with Jack Hughes assisting on two of the Devils' goals.

For the Kraken, Philipp Grubauer made an impressive 34 saves.

Jack Hughes has been on a roll, accumulating 10 points over his last four games, while Bratt and Hughes together have achieved 72 points this season.

Bratt joined an elite group by becoming the fifth Devil to log multiple points in his 500th career game.

Looking ahead, the Kraken will face off against the New York Rangers on Sunday and the Devils are set to host the Colorado Avalanche.
