Yanni Gourde Post Game Interview After Win Against Carolina Hurricanes on the Road. Raleigh, NC - The Seattle Kraken kicked off their four-game road trip with a new mentality, dominating the Hurricanes 4-2 in Carolina on Tuesday. After a three-game losing streak, players and coaches had been vocal [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/seattle-kraken/game-day/seattle-at-carolina-preview-its-going-to-be-a-hard-game-tonight] about the team's recent lack of urgency and consistency. Jaden Schwartz wasted no time, firing the Kraken's first goal just 19 seconds into the game with a wicked snap shot past Canes' goalie Pyotr Kochetkov. Yanni Gourde and Matty Beniers earned assists on the play. But at 4:56, Eric Robertson answered back, tying the game with a wrist shot past Joey Daccord. The Kraken maintained pressure on Carolina, seizing a 2-1 lead at 5:56 with a snap shot from Eeli Tolvanen, his seventh goal of the season, assisted by Oliver Bjorkstrand and Vince Dunn. Martin Necas tied it up at 2-2 on a power play after Joshua Mahura was called for delay of game. But from there, it was all Kraken. Seattle ramped up the pressure and urgency, scoring twice to seize a 4-2 lead. Yanni Gourde netted his fourth goal of the season and second point of the night at 10:48, with assists from Matty Beniers and Jaden Schwartz. Just 40 seconds later, Brandon Tanev scored on a backhand, assisted by Brandon Montour and Ryan Winterton—Winterton's first NHL point. Frustrated, Carolina pulled Kochetkov for the extra man, but Seattle's defense held strong to secure the 4-2 win. Carolina's 16 shots on goal were their lowest of the season. Key Moments: HC Dan Bylsma challenged the Canes' third-period goal, which would have given them a 3-2 lead. The call was overturned, and 40 seconds later, the Kraken scored to take a 3-2 lead. Matty Beniers dominated in face-offs and shined on his new line with Jaden Schwartz and Yanni Gourde.
