   Jared McCann scores the second and last goal for the Kraken. Blake Wheeler gets an empty-netter with his second of the game! The final score overall was 5-2.



"It was huge going into the game. We were hoping that we couldn't give them many rush chances and odd-man rushes. They have a lot of speed and they make you pay on those. Unfortunately, we turned the puck over quite a bit - you hate to have to rely on him to make the amount of quality saves he made. Fortunately for us, that's why he's world-class and he made a bunch of big ones for us tonight." Blake Wheeler spoke about the Rangers 5-2 win against the Kraken postgame.
