Joey Daccord (43 saves) lifts Kraken to win over Kings

Joey Daccord made 43 saves to help the visiting Seattle Kraken hold on for a 2-1 win against the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday night.

Brandon Tanev and Jordan Eberle scored for the Kraken, who have earned at least a point in six of their past seven games (3-1-3).

Blake Lizotte scored short-handed and Cam Talbot made 28 saves for the Kings, who have dropped four of six (2-3-1).

The Kings beat the Kraken 3-2 in a shootout on Saturday in Seattle.

Tanev gave Seattle a 1-0 lead at 5:19 of the second period.

The Kings won a faceoff in their own zone, but Los Angeles defenseman Jordan Spence was unable to locate the puck at his feet. Tanev skated in and shot the puck at Talbot, who made the initial save, but Tanev followed up and knocked in the rebound for his third goal of the season.

Eberle scored on a breakaway to make it 2-0 at 6:27 of the third period.

Will Borgen used his skate to block a shot by Kings defenseman Mikey Anderson. The puck caromed in the air and Seattle’s Matty Beniers gloved it down before feeding Eberle for the breakaway and his fourth goal of the season.

Los Angeles cut it to 2-1 at 8:00 of the third.

The Kraken were on their third power play of the game after Alex Laferriere was called for holding Oliver Bjorkstrand.

Daccord went into the corner to handle the puck after it was cleared. He passed the puck behind his net to defenseman Justin Schultz, but it bounced off Schultz’s blade and began sliding toward the net.

Lizotte got to it first and shot the puck into the net before Daccord could get back to the crease.

The Kings outshot Seattle 20-8 in the first period, but couldn’t get one past Daccord.

Los Angeles went 0-for-4 on the power play, while Seattle finished 0-for-3 with the man advantage.
