The Kraken, still pursuing a playoff spot, never let up during an 8-1 rout of Arizona on Monday night.

Avalanche, third in the Central Division, have yet to clinch, plus the two wild-card teams. Grubauer made the most of his consequential saves in the first 10 minutes and totaled 20. The Los Angeles Kings put an ‘x’ next to themselves in the standings Sunday in Vancouver, the night after beating the Kraken 3-1. “Obviously we don’t need to do the running around. We just try to close out the game.” Listed at 6-foot-7 and 6-foot-1, respectively, they locked together right in front of Kraken goaltender Philipp Grubauer until O’Brien hit the ice to end the fight. “Jared’s killed in the league for a lot of years,” coach Dave Hakstol said. “We said in the dressing room — we have to stay on them. It was Eberle’s 100th point since joining the Kraken, and the only player to reach that mark before him — McCann — scored next. “We have a tendency to back up a little more and play defensive, and that puts us in the soup sometimes.” Jordan Eberle opened the scoring and gave the Kraken power-play goals in three straight games. In his 500th NHL game, McCann made it 37 goals on the year.

– With the victory, the Kraken set an NHL record for the largest in total jump from year one to year two of a franchise's existence. "But it's been a long year for them and they just lost 8-1 so I think if roles were reversed, we'd be pissed off too, but I don't think that's the time and place to do it." He was back skating individually in early March and appeared on track for a much quicker return to action. Josh Brown popped Gourde in the face after a whistle as Ryan Donato jumped the Arizona defenseman to stick up for Gourde. Morgan Geekie directed a rebounded slap shot from Gourde by Prosvetov on the ensuing power play for a 7-1 lead. Alex Wennberg found Will Borgen for a clean look between the circles that beat Prosvetov early in the third period to further extend the lead. "I think we did a good job just kind of foot on the gas tonight, closing out a win," Soucy said. As the Coyotes won a face-off on a Seattle power play, Matty Beniers sprinted to the blue line to keep a clearance attempt from Arizona in the offensive zone. Carson Soucy scored just his third goal of the season as he took a strong cross-ice pass from Sprong and ripped the puck through Prosvetov's legs to make it a 3-1 game. Beniers crossed the blue line and set the puck for McCann, who snapped a wrist shot by Prosvetov for a 2-0 advantage. "He's coming up big for us," said winger Daniel Sprong, who had a pair of assists in the win. In addition to his scoring acumen, McCann's presence on the penalty kill has helped bolster that unit the second half of the season.
