The Seattle Kraken return to Climate Pledge Arena with a 3-1 record after an impressive four-game road trip, which included their first-ever away wins over the Carolina Hurricanes (4-2), New York Islanders (5-2), and New York Rangers (7-5). Their only loss came in New Jersey, where they fell to the Devils (3-2). Sunday night in New York, the Kraken stunned Rangers fans at Madison Square Garden with a four-goal rally in the second period to seize the lead. Oliver Bjorkstrand led the charge, recording four points with two goals (including one on the power play) and two assists. Bjorkstrand's point streak extends to 11 in nine games! Eeli Tolvanen contributed a goal and two assists, while Brandon Tanev, Vince Dunn, Shane Wright and Yanni Gourde each found the back of the net. Philipp Grubauer stood strong in goal, making 32 saves in the victory. While the victories have been sweet, the real challenge lies ahead for Seattle on Tuesday night, as they host the defending Stanley Cup champions and NHL's star forward of the week, Matthew Tkachuk. Tkachuk led the league this week with 11 points in just three games. The Kraken also bolstered their roster this offseason by acquiring Brandon Montour from the Panthers. Puck drop for Tuesday night's match is scheduled for 7PM PST.
