NEWARK, N.J. (AP) --- Nico Hischier scored his second goal of the game on a
breakaway at 3:42 of overtime to give the New Jersey Devils a 3-2 victory over
the Seattle Kraken on Wednesday night.
Hischier took a pass from Jack Hughes and broke in on goalie Philipp Grubauer.
As Seattle's Matty Beniers caught up, Hischier turned to to his backhand to
shield Beniers and put a shot past Grubauer. The New Jersey captain leads the
team with 15 goals.
Cody Glass also scored for New Jersey, and Jacob Markstrom made 15 saves. The
Devils built on a 5-2 victory Monday night in Minnesota that ended a four-game
losing streak.
Jared McCann and defenseman Adam Larsson scored for Seattle, and Grubauer
stopped 23 shots. The Kraken have two games left on a trip that opened with a
loss at Carolina and a victory over the New York Rangers.
McCann tied it on a power play at 5:06 of the second period, scoring off a
rebound just 1:33 after Hischier gave New Jersey the lead on a power play with
a shot from the top of the right circle to the far side.
Glass opened the scoring at 54 seconds of the first period. He won a faceoff,
then scored off a rebound of Dougie Hamilton's shot. Larson tied it at 8:55 of
the period, stepping up between he circles for a shot to the far side.
