Vince Dunn scored the go-ahead goal with a two-man advantage late in the second period as the Seattle Kraken defeated the visiting Pittsburgh Penguins 4-1 on Saturday, spoiling a historic afternoon for Sidney Crosby.
The Kraken’s Oliver Bjorkstrand, who has been a consistent threat against the Penguins with eight points (5g/3a) in 21 career games, finally broke the deadlock, scoring the first goal of the game. But Pittsburgh’s captain, Sidney Crosby, responded with a goal of his own, tying things up at 1-1 and keeping the Penguins in the hunt.
