Wright’s second goal of the night, scored off a shot from the left face-off circle, pulled the Kraken within 4-3 at 10:10 of the third period before Chandler Stephenson’s goal tied it 4-4 only 6:54 later.

“There were a couple breakdowns, but we have our leaders coming up and down the bench telling us to stay confident and to hang in there,” Patrick Kane said. “Seider’s doing that. Obviously, some leadership from a young guy. That’s huge. That keeps us in the right mindset and wanting to play on the attack.”

Detroit outshot Seattle, 4-3, in overtime but neither team could find the back of the net.

“Wild overtime,” McLellan said. “Could have gone either way.”

Kane scored the lone goal in the shootout, marking his 53rd career NHL shootout goal and passing former Chicago Blackhawks teammate Jonathan Toews (52) for the most in League history.

“It’s been a good ride,” Kane said. “Obviously, being out for a little bit was frustrating, but coming back in and seeing how the team is playing, it’s fun to be part of.”

NEXT UP: Hoping to keep both of their streaks alive before departing for the NHL’s 4 Nations Face-Off break, the Red Wings will host the Tampa Bay Lightning at Little Caesars Arena on Saturday afternoon.
