In a dominant performance, the San Jose Sharks defeated the Seattle Kraken 6-1 on November 5, led by Macklin Celebrini's goal and two assists. Celebrini, the first overall pick in the 2024 NHL draft, scored just 1:08 into the game and now leads the league with 21 points this season. Ryan Winterton scored his first NHL goal for Seattle, but the Kraken suffered their first home loss after a strong 4-0-2 start at Climate Pledge Arena. After a competitive first period that saw the teams tied at 1-1, the Sharks took control with three quick goals in the third period. Yaroslav Askarov made 28 saves, helping the Sharks improve their record to 5-6-3 and winning for the third time in four games.

The Sharks will host the Winnipeg Jets next, looking to build on their recent success. The defeat marks a significant setback for the Kraken, who had been performing well at home this season. Seattle must regroup quickly before their upcoming matchup against the St. Louis Blues.
