Overview
- Seattle, which erased a 3-1 deficit Thursday, won 4-3 in a shootout on Berkly Catton’s fifth-round winner.
- Mark Stone scored twice and Brett Howden pushed Vegas ahead early in the third, then Jared McCann snapped Seattle’s 0-for-17 power-play slump before Catton and Bobby McMann leveled it.
- Joey Daccord stopped 31 shots for the Kraken, and Adin Hill made 30 saves for Vegas in his first start since March 30.
- The defeat ended John Tortorella’s four-game winning run since taking over as coach and leaves the Golden Knights tied with Anaheim for second and one point behind Edmonton with three to play.
- The victory kept the Kraken’s slim playoff hopes alive as they handled an emergency goalie recall for Nikke Kokko, Matt Murray’s family absence, and a front-office change discussed by CEO Tod Leiweke.
