Seattle Kraken beat Ducks to earn first back-to-back wins in a month

The Kraken won back-to-back games for the first time since Nov. 20-22, making Jordan Eberle’s third-period goal stand up for the final 10 minutes of a 3-1 victory over the Anaheim Ducks. Eberle added the empty-net goal as well.

Philipp Grubauer was sturdy in net for Seattle, stopping 38 shots Monday night. The Kraken (14-14-6) are assured of an even record at worst on this four-game road trip leading up to the NHL’s Christmas break.
