The Seattle Kraken have had a historic start to their inaugural season, and they added another impressive feat to their resume on Tuesday night. The Kraken tied the franchise record for consecutive points with an overtime win against the Philadelphia Flyers.
The Kraken have been on fire since the start of the season, and they continued their hot streak against the Flyers. Seattle jumped out to an early lead, but Philadelphia was able to tie the game late in the third period. The game went into overtime, and the Kraken were able to come away with the win.
The win was the eighth consecutive game in which the Kraken earned at least a point, tying the franchise record set during their first season. The streak has been fueled by stellar goaltending from veteran netminder Matt Murray, who has been a rock in net for the Kraken.
The Kraken have also been getting contributions from all four lines. Their top line of J.T. Miller, Mathew Barzal, and Brock Boeser has been one of the most dangerous in the league, while their bottom six has chipped in with timely goals and strong defensive play.
The Kraken are now firmly entrenched in the playoff race, and they have a legitimate chance to make a deep run in the postseason. With their record-tying points streak, the Kraken have proven that they are a force to be reckoned with in the NHL.
