The match with Dallas and Seattle, which ended on Friday morning Finnish time, ended with a 4–2 home win for the green shirts.
None of the Finns who cooled down on the field managed to score. In the playoffs, he led the points market for a while Roope Hintz caught the second pass for his team’s fourth goal.
The game was almost completely controlled by Dallas. It won the shooting stat 37-27, and not the goalie Jake Oettinger had to stretch his paint to wonders. The Kraken Eeli Tolvanen shot on goal once.
Dallas’ goals did Wyatt Johnston, Yevgeny Dadonov, Joe Pavelski and Tyler Seguin and the Kraken Tye Kartye and Jordan Eberle.
The 38-year-old Pavelski, who scored four goals in the series opener, now has 69 goals, which is the third most among active players in the NHL. Alexander Ovechkin (72) and Sidney Crosby after (71). Neither will play in the spring games, so the American can still pass both this spring.
The star newcomer was enraged
Seattle Kraken’s rookie player in the final set of the match Matthew Beniers grimaced looking pained. He had caught Dallas’ Finnish stud on the side of the rink Jani Hakanpääwhich didn’t give the Rookie of the Year finalist room to advance.
Beniers beat his bat on the bench in obvious frustration. Hakanpää, who had gotten under the skin, had also previously hit the ineffective attacker. Beniers was still able to play in the last few minutes, so he wasn’t completely ugly.
Hakanpää, who played almost 20 minutes, made five tackles in the match and was one point ahead.
The Stars and Kraken next travel to the northwest coast of the United States in Seattle in a tie.
