ST. LOUIS (AP) --- Shane Wright scored 1:57 into in overtime after Chandler
Stevenson tied the game with two seconds left in regulation and the Seattle
Kraken beat the St. Louis Blues 4-3 on Saturday night.
St. Louis never touched the puck in overtime.
Jordan Kyrou gave St. Louis a 3-2 lead with a goal at 5:10 of the third period.
Kyrou had been a healthy scratch in the Blues' 3-0 win at Buffalo on Thursday.
Dylan Holloway and Dalibor Dvorsky also scored for St. Louis, while Joel Hofer
made 26 saves.
Ryker Evans and Eeli Tolvanen also scored for the Kraken, while Philipp
Grubauer made 16 saves.
Kraken goalie Joey Daccord did not make the road trip. He remained back in
Seattle with an upper-body injury and is being evaluated.
The Blues went up 1-0 on an unassisted goal by Holloway at 5:30 of the first
period. He picked off a pass by Ryan Winterton in the middle of the slot and
scored on a wrist shot.
A power-play goal by Dvorsky put St. Louis ahead 2-0 at 9:40 of the first.
Dvorsky was making a pass from the right circle and the puck deflected in off
Adam Larsson.
Seattle cut the lead to 2-1 when Evans shot from the top of the left circle to
beat Hofer at 8:28 of the second period.
Tolvanen scored his first goal this season to tie it 2-2 on a power play at
15:25 of the second.
The Kraken sent it into overtime when Stevenson scored at 19:58 with an extra
attacker on the ice.
