The Kraken started this road trip right. They played a stout and balanced game that kept one of the more offensively talented teams in the league off the scoreboard through two periods. After the Penguins capitalized on a power play, Seattle didn't quit and strung together their strongest offensive play to get the equalizer and force overtime. And then, 1:17 into bonus hockey, Alex Wennberg set up fellow Swede Adam Larsson for the game winner. Throughout the 60 minutes, while Kraken skaters did their jobs, Philipp Grubauer was formidable in net, turning away all but one of the pucks he faced.
Let's look at the game "by the numbers."
