For the better part of 20 minutes — a crucial time known as the second period — the Seattle Kraken lost its collective mind and turned into the Minnesota Wild. ...
came just seconds after defenseman Carson Soucy had skated out of the penalty box and before he was truly back into the play. Soucy was in the box after being whistled for interference on Mason Marchment. It was Soucy’s second penalty of the night and the one that would prove costly.
Seattle struck back quickly just as the visitors had done in Game 1 , getting a goal from winger Tye Kartye on a high shot that beat Jake Oettinger on the stick side. But defenseman Will Borgen was soon headed for the box after basically tackling Dadonov behind the Kraken net. This time it was local hero Pavelski,, shoving a rebound of a Johnston shot past Grubauer for a 3-1 Stars lead.
In the first round — the first playoff series ever for the Kraken — the upstarts stopped 16 of 18 Colorado power plays, shutting down the defending champs in an area where they were often magical in last year’s Stanley Cup run. Dallas was 0-for-2 in Game 1 against the Kraken, and maybe Seattle just lost its poise in the second period, having learned not to fear sending its penalty killers onto the ice.
, there was no sense of panic on display Thursday. Coach Pete DeBoer rolled out the same lineup and the same four lines and, while the Stars did not score in the opening period, they held an 11-5 advantage in shots on goal and were destroying Seattle in the face-off circle as they did for most of the night.
