    The Flyers will have their own outdoor game in one week, facing the New Jersey Devils at Met Life Stadium. Speaking of jerseys...

    That much-maligned Philly power play comes through when Vince Dunn goes off for a cross-check. Scott Laughton gets the goal at 4:36.

    Kevin Weeks, on the ESPN+ telecast, said to increase scoring, the Kraken needed to get more "Industrial."

    Perhaps Tomas Tatar will need to change his nickname from "Tuna" to "The Contractor." His slot shot, deflected by Matty Beniers, beats Flyers goalie Cal Petersen to tie the game 1-1 at 17:09.

    Beniers' goal, a welcome 7th of the season, had to survive a lengthy coach's challenge for offside. Because the goal stood, Philadelphia was charged with a minor penalty.

    But the team that scored was the one shorthanded. The Flyers get their league-leading 12th shorthanded goal, Ryan Poehling putting the home team back in front 2-1 at 18:14.

    Just before the horn, Seattle's Yanni Gourde levels Cam York.
