Seattle continues to struggle on the power play, missing three opportunities as well as shots on goal. The Kraken only had 19 shots on goal compared to the Canes’ 39. Penalties also plagued the Kraken throughout the game, giving the Canes even more of an advantage. Carolina scored its first goal off a power play from right winger Andrei Svechnikov. Jack Drury scored a tip-in during a scuffle around the net in the second period, and Seth Jarvis scored with a wrist shot. Dmitry Orlov added the empty-netter in the third.

The Kraken leave for a five game road trip starting in Montreal on Tuesday followed by stops in Toronto (Oct. 31), Ottawa (Nov. 2), Boston (Nov. 3) and Colorado (Nov. 5).
