"He was great tonight. Grubi was great," Hakstol said. "He made some huge saves and timely saves. I think you can look at that throughout the game. You're facing some elite offensive players here. Coming back into this building, I'm really happy for him. He played extremely well and the guys played hard for him."
The Kraken are now 7-0 in their last seven overtime finishes with their only post-regulation losses coming in shootouts to the Vancouver Canucks, Avalanche and Winnipeg Jets. Jack Johnson was called for a tripping penalty against Matty Beniers and Mikko Rantanen picked up an unsporsmanlike conduct penalty for arguing with an official as the second period came to a close. It allowed the Kraken to open the third period with a two-man advantage.
"He played really well," said forward Jaden Schwartz, who picked up an assist on both of Seattle's goals in regulation. "He had some big saves, some timely saves. We had a decent amount of power plays and he made some big ones. We just have to stay with it, try to get in front of his eyes a little bit, keep the pressure on him and I thought we did a really good job of that. He and [Grubauer] both made some pretty awesome saves.
