The Vancouver Canucks have been on a roll lately, and they continued their winning streak with a victory over the Seattle Kraken on Saturday night. The Canucks were trailing 2-1 after two periods, but they rallied in the third period to secure the win.
The Canucks’ offense was led by Elias Pettersson, who scored two goals in the third period to give the Canucks the lead. Pettersson’s first goal came off a great pass from J.T. Miller, and his second goal was a beautiful wrist shot that beat the Kraken goaltender.
The Canucks also got great goaltending from Braden Holtby, who made some key saves in the third period to keep the Canucks in the game. He finished the game with 28 saves on 30 shots.
The Canucks were also able to capitalize on their power play opportunities, scoring two goals on four chances. They were able to take advantage of some sloppy play by the Kraken, which allowed them to get some easy goals.
The win was a big one for the Canucks, as it was their fourth straight victory and moved them into second place in the Pacific Division. They are now just one point behind the first-place Vegas Golden Knights.
The Canucks will look to keep their winning streak going as they take on the Arizona Coyotes on Monday night. They will need to continue to get strong goaltending and capitalize on their power play opportunities if they want to keep their winning streak alive.
