With the NHL trade deadline six weeks away, it would appear the Pittsburgh Penguins and Seattle Kraken are in a similar circumstance. They can either get it going soon, or both could be sellers come March 7.

The Pittsburgh Penguins travelled to the Seattle Kraken to continue their West Coast road trip. The Kraken were looking to take their third win of their four-game homestand.

The Kraken’s Oliver Bjorkstrand, who has been a consistent threat against the Penguins with eight points (5g/3a) in 21 career games, finally broke the deadlock, scoring the first goal of the game. But Pittsburgh’s captain, Sidney Crosby, responded with a goal of his own, tying things up at 1-1 and keeping the Penguins in the hunt.
