Kraken Blank Canucks 5-0, Jeopardizing Playoff Hopes

The Seattle Kraken defeated the Vancouver Canucks 5-0, significantly damaging Vancouver's playoff hopes as they fell eight points behind the Western Conference wild-card positions. Joey Daccord achieved his second shutout of the season, stopping 25 shots, while Mikey Eyssimont, Chandler Stephenson, Shane Wright, and Andre Burakovsky scored for the Kraken, who were already eliminated from playoff contention. Vancouver's struggles continued as they failed to convert on three power plays, marking their fourth game this season without scoring. The Canucks' goalie Thatcher Demko made 15 saves amid a chorus of boos from the home crowd at Rogers Arena. This loss adds to Vancouver's winless streak, putting them in a precarious position with only seven games left in the season. The Kraken completed the season series against the Canucks with three victories out of four meetings.
