A look at the game “by the numbers.”
+ The Kraken held pretty close to even with Winnipeg in this game, creating 49.7-percent of all 5-on-5 shot volume, equaling 49.9-percent of all shot quality.
+ This was the earliest in the season that the Kraken have earned a shutout (the previous best was game 12 in 2022-23).
+ The Kraken became the first team to shut out the Jets in Winnipeg since the Flyers did so on Jan. 13, 2024.
+ The Jets had not been shut out in their last 72 regular-season games. They were shut out only one time last year by the Florida Panthers.
+ Seattle’s penalty kill kept the third-best power play in the league off the scoresheet. It’s the third time this season the Kraken PK has been perfect in a game.
+ Joey Daccord recorded his first shutout of the season and the sixth of his Kraken career. That extends the record for the most in franchise history.
+ Daccord prevented 2.7 more goals than he should have based on the shot quality he faced and earned his third quality start of the season.
+ The game-winning goal was Jaden Schwartz’s ninth with the Kraken. That ties him with Eeli Tolvanen and Alex Wennberg for the third most in franchise history
+ Jaden Schwartz (2-1—3) posted his sixth multi-goal game with the Kraken and tied Jordan Eberle for second most in franchise history. His seventh three-point game with Seattle also overtook Vince Dunn for sole possession of third most with the club.
+ The two Kraken goal scorers (Schwartz and Eberle) led the way in individual shot quality for their team.
+ The fourth line of Ben Meyers, centering Ryan Winterton and Tye Kartye, had the largest shot volume advantage over Winnipeg, going plus-6 in 5:10 of play. Kartye and Winterton were the top two Kraken skaters in terms of offensive zone possession time.
+ Shane Wright’s line with Schwartz and Jani Nyman had the biggest advantage in shot quality, creating 74-percent in 7:43 of play together.
+ Chandler Stephenson’s line had the primary responsibility of shutting down the Jets’ powerful top line of Mark Schiefele, Kyle Connor, and Gabe Vilardi and they succeeded. 11:36 of Stephenson’s line’s 13:46 was spent in that match, and the Kraken trio still ended up with a plus-1 shot attempt advantage and 66.3 percent of all shot quality.
