Kraken's Oliver Bjorkstrand: Two-pointer in win
Bjorkstrand scored a goal on two shots, recorded a power-play assist and delivered one hit in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Canadiens.
A rough first period for Montreal got worse when the Kraken capitalized on Arber Xhekaj's giveaway behind his own net. Jaden Schwartz accepted the gift and fed a wide-open Bjorkstrand for his third tally of the season. The two-point night halted a four-game pointless streak for the winger. The assist was his first power-play point of the season after pacing Seattle with 25 points while on the man-advantage unit in 2023-24.
