SEATTLE (AP) — Macklin Celebrini had a goal and two assists as the San Jose Sharks beat the Seattle Kraken 6-1 on Wednesday night.
Ethan Cardwell, John Klingberg, Will Smith, Ty Dellandrea and Tyler Toffoli also scored for the Sharks, who put away the game with three goals in the first four minutes of the third period.
Yaroslav Askarov made 28 saves to help San Jose (5-6-3) win for the third time in four games.
Ryan Winterton netted his first NHL goal in 34 career games for Seattle. Joey Daccord stopped 15 shots but the Kraken lost in regulation at home for the first time after a 4-0-2 start in their own building.
It was the most goals Seattle has allowed in a game this season.
Celebrini, the first pick in the 2024 NHL draft, scored 1:08 into the opening period. His wrist shot from the slot was his eighth goal of the season. He leads the league with 21 points.
After being thwarted on a breakaway, Winterton found the puck moments later in the slot and tied it with 3:30 left in the first.
Cardwell gave the Sharks a 2-1 lead with 1:58 remaining in the period, scoring on a one-timer. It was his first goal since Nov. 29 last year — also against Seattle.
