SEATTLE (AP) — Vince Dunn scored the go-ahead goal late in the second period, and Eeli Tolvanen and Matty Beniers both scored in the third as the Seattle Kraken beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-1 on Saturday.  Dunn’s goal came on a 5-on-3 power play and broke a 1-1 tie.  After a scoreless first, Oliver Bjorkstrand put the Kraken ahead with a goal 2:16 into the second period. Sidney Crosby scored his 14th goal of the season just over two minutes later.  Chandler Stephenson and Jared McCann each had two assists for Seattle, and Joey Daccord made 28 saves for Seattle.  Kris Letang and Rickard Rakell had one assist each for the Penguins, while goalie Joel Blomqvist had 21 stops.  Pittsburgh’s Evgeni Malkin left the game midway through the first period with a lower-body injury.
