Brock McGinn scored, Lukas Dostal made 35 saves, but the Ducks' losing streak grew to six games with a 4-1 loss to the Seattle Kraken on Thursday.
Jaden Schwartz and Matty Beniers scored within three minutes of each other in the first period and the Seattle Kraken pulled away to beatDaniel Sprong added a power-play goal with 4:18 left in the game and Alex Wennberg sealed it with an empty-netter. Martin Jones made 18 saves to help the Kraken keep their grip on the top Western Conference wild-card playoff spot.
Schwartz put the Kraken ahead at 7:57 of the first period. Will Borgen, playing on the right side behind his own blue line, angled a cross-ice pass that Schwartz caught up with just over Anaheim’s blue line. From the top of the left circle, Schwartz fired it past Dostal. Beniers had gone 13 straight games without a goal from Feb. 28 until getting his 20th in last Saturday’s 7-2 win at Nashville and now his 21st, tying him with Dallas’ Wyatt Johnson for most among rookies this season.
“Everyone goes through it. I think I was playing a good game before and I think I’m playing the same exact game now — they’re just going in.”
