BUFFALO, N.Y. — Vince Dunn’s goal streak sacrificed itself for Matty Beniers’. Dunn’s shot went off the goalpost and Beniers dove on the rebound, handing Seattle its first lead of Tuesday night’s victory — the Kraken’s sixth in a row.
Dunn had scored in three consecutive contests. Beniers, meanwhile, became the second rookie this season to score in five straight games.
Seattle’s Justin Schultz set up the tying goal and took care of the insurance tally himself, sending a low shot whistling under Sabres goaltender Eric Comrie. The Sabres got one back with 20 seconds left, but the Kraken held on for a 4-3 victory.
