Vladislav Kolyachonok scored the tiebreaking goal at 14:16 of the third period as the Dallas Stars improved their NHL-leading road record with a 3-2 victory over the Seattle Kraken on Wednesday.
Roope Hintz and Esa Lindell also tallied and Tyler Seguin had two assists for the Stars, who completed a 3-0-1 trip and upped their away mark to 9-1-3. Dallas goaltender Casey DeSmith made 26 saves.
Brandon Montour and Vince Dunn scored for Seattle, which took just its second regulation loss at home this season (6-2-3). Joey Daccord stopped 18 of 21 shots.
The winning goal came after the Stars gained possession in the offensive zone and cycled the puck. Seguin dropped a pass back to Kolyachonok at the left point shot, and his soft wrist shot deflected off defenseman Adam Larsson's shin pad, past a screened Daccord and pinged off the right post before finding the net.
The goal was Kolyachonok's first in the five games he has played for Dallas.
The Stars opened the scoring at 5:52 of the first period as Hintz redirected Alex Petrovic's shot from the right point between Daccord's pads.
The Kraken tied it at 9:06 of the opening period.
DeSmith made a blocker save on Montour's shot from the high slot, but Shane Wright pounced on the rebound on the left wing and chopped a backhander that went through the crease and into the right corner. Montour regained the puck just beneath the goal line and flipped the puck toward the net, and it caromed off the heel of DeSmith's right skate as the goalie tried to go from post to post.
The Stars regained the lead at 6:13 of the second period on an odd-man rush.
Lindell got the puck deep on left wing and Daccord stopped his initial shot, but Dallas' Justin Hryckowian found the rebound in a scramble at the top of the crease and kicked the puck back to Lindell, who buried his second chance as Daccord was still scanning for the puck.
Dunn tied it at 2-2 just 18 seconds into the third period on a lengthy solo rush. The defenseman picked up the puck at the right faceoff dot in his own zone, weaved his way through center ice and into the offensive zone. While surrounded by three defenders, Dunn unleashed a wrist shot from the inside top of the left faceoff circle that surprised DeSmith high to the glove side.
