Shane Wright scored twice and the Seattle Kraken extended their winning streak to three games with a 5-2 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday night.<\/p>\n

Brandon Montour and Matty Beniers also scored for the Kraken, who had at least five goals in back-to-back games for the first time. Seattle, which beat Washington 5-1 on Tuesday night, has won four of its last five games. Joey Daccord stopped 29 shots.<\/p>\n

Nicholas Robertson and Morgan Rielly scored for Toronto, which slipped to 0-5-1 over its past six games.<\/p>\n

Anthony Stolarz, making his second straight start in goal after missing two months with an upper body injury, allowed a goal on the opening shot for the second consecutive game and finished with 17 saves.<\/p>\n

Cathal Kelly: After yet another Maple Leafs face plant, we can say it: this team is cooked<\/a><\/p>\n

Wright, the fourth overall pick in the 2022 NHL draft, had the second multigoal game of his career. He hadn\u2019t scored in his last 13 games before netting his eighth and ninth of the season.<\/p>\n

Beniers scored 1:21 into the first period for Seattle. He has a point in five straight games and set a franchise record for 10 goals in a calendar month.<\/p>\n

Robertson tied it at 1 with 4:58 remaining in the first on a slap shot from the top of the left circle.<\/p>\n

Wright scored on a backhand off a rebound 6:23 into the second period, and Montour added a goal 31 seconds later to give Seattle a 3-1 lead.<\/p>\n

After Wright\u2019s holding penalty, the Maple Leafs capitalized with a power-play goal from Rielly 6:04 into the third period to cut their deficit to 3-2.<\/p>\n

After forcing a defensive zone turnover, Wright\u2019s wrist shot put Seattle up 4-2 at 8:32 in the third.<\/p>\n

Jared McCann scored into an empty net with 2:27 left for his 199th career goal.<\/p>\n

Berkly Catton, the Kraken\u2019s first-round pick in the 2024 NHL draft, took a hard hit to the head from Toronto\u2019s Oliver Ekman-Larsson in the first period and did not return.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Open this photo in gallery: Seattle Kraken goaltender Joey Daccord blocks a shot from Toronto Maple Leafs centre…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":441205,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5130],"tags":[1018,1001,1019,967,991,1020,19,990,1008,1009,1004,992,989,1014,1016,1013,1007,1000,1030,993,994,1006,5,4188,1002,1003,997,1021,998,1025,1026,4,1028,1023,1027,786,1024,995,1011,1012,333,1010,1022,2686,234,5318,86,1015,1017,1005,999,996,1029],"class_list":["post-441204","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-seattle-kraken","tag-alberta","tag-arts-news","tag-bc","tag-breaking-news","tag-breaking-news-video","tag-british-columbia","tag-canada","tag-canada-news","tag-canada-sports","tag-canada-sports-news","tag-canada-trafficcanada-weather","tag-canadian-breaking-news","tag-canadian-news","tag-economy","tag-education","tag-environment","tag-federal-government","tag-foreign-news","tag-globe-and-mail","tag-globe-and-mail-breaking-news","tag-globe-and-mail-canada-news","tag-government","tag-hockey","tag-kraken","tag-life-news","tag-lifestyle","tag-local-news","tag-manitoba","tag-national-news","tag-new-brunswick","tag-newfoundland-and-labrador","tag-nhl","tag-northwest-territories","tag-nova-scotia","tag-nunavut","tag-ontario","tag-pei","tag-photos","tag-political-news","tag-political-opinion","tag-politics","tag-politics-news","tag-quebec","tag-seattle","tag-seattle-kraken","tag-seattlekraken","tag-sports-news","tag-technology","tag-travel","tag-trudeau","tag-us-news","tag-world-news","tag-yukon"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/441204","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=441204"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/441204\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/441205"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=441204"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=441204"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=441204"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
