SEATTLE — Jordan Eberle was not to be denied.
The Seattle Kraken alternate captain had said he wanted a goal for his one-day-old son, Deacon. His first crack at it turned into an assist, and the goal didn’t hold up to review.
Jaden Schwartz dove after the puck behind the Pittsburgh Penguins net, shook it free and sent it to Matty Beniers. Beniers tapped it to Eberle at the back door, which was standing wide open.
