Leon Draisaitl had two goals and two assists as the Oilers continued their hot start to the season with a victory over the Kraken.
Jaden Schwartz and Carson Soucy replied for the Kraken who have lost two straight.Edmonton scored on its first shot of the game two minutes in when a Tyson Barrie blast deflected off of Draisaitl's skate and past Daccord.
Two minutes after that the Oilers regained the lead using their lethal power play. Zach Hyman sent a pass across for Draisaitl, who scored his seventh of the season into a wide-open net. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins picked up his league-leading 11 assist on the play. Seattle clawed back within one with 1:20 left in the second as Soucy joined the rush and picked the top corner.
Draisaitl got his fourth point with seven-and-a-half minutes to play as he sent Yamamoto in and he made a nice move to score his first goal in 20 games and just his second in his last 36.
