Eeli Tolvanen led the Seattle Kraken to a decisive 6-3 victory over the Vancouver Canucks, scoring twice, including the crucial go-ahead goal with just under seven minutes remaining in the second period. This win marked a significant bounce-back for the Kraken after struggling offensively in recent games. Tolvanen's performance came after Matty Beniers tied the game earlier in the second period. Despite a 2-1 deficit following goals from Pius Suter and Filip Chytil, Seattle rallied to take control with Oliver Bjorkstrand and Tolvanen contributing to a five-goal output.

Brandon Montour also made a notable impact with a goal and an assist, providing a two-goal cushion for the Kraken, which was vital against a Vancouver team that struggles when allowing five or more goals. Joey Daccord stood tall in net with 28 saves, demonstrating resilience against Vancouver's offensive barrage. Vancouver remains in the playoff chase despite this setback, holding on to the second wild-card spot due to Calgary's loss, but they must tighten their defense to improve their odds.
