    Before the game, Jordan Eberle took on ceremonial puck-drop duties.

    Seattle is credited with 17 1st period hits, three each from defensemen Will Borgen and Adam Larsson.

    Hellebuyck poke-checks Andre Burakovsky before he can release a breakaway shot. The Winnipeg netminder also turns aside an Adam Larsson bomb, bidding for goals in back-to-back games.

    Kyle Connor brings the Jets even 1-1 at 8:07, his 26th of the season. It was Winnipeg's second SOG in the first eight minutes.

    Mark Scheifele's assist is his 700th NHL point.

    Seattle sidesteps disaster when a skate save by Daccord deflects off Tomas Tatar and slithers just wide of the right post.

    Jared McCann behind the net feeding Bjorkstrand in the slot; the combination worked for a goal just that way Monday in Calgary. It could have here, too, except for Hellebuyck's lightning-quick glove.

    At 16:27, Kartye takes a trip, the first penalty of the game. The 18th ranked Seattle penalty kill will try to snuff Winnipeg's #24 PP - without Vince Dunn.

    Attention Kraken fans: you are not watching a replay from last night. Jared McCann converts a shorthanded breakaway for the second time in 24 hours. His 27th on the season puts Seattle back in front 2-1 at 17:56.

    Oh by the way, Winnipeg gets zero shots on their power play.

    If a hockey period were 19 minutes and 50 seconds long, Seattle would have taken a lead to the dressing room. But it isn't.

    Winnipeg captain Adam Lowry, son of Kraken assistant coach Dave, ties the game 2-2 at 19:51. Way to make dad proud - and mad.
