SEATTLE — Nikita Kucherov scored his second goal of the game 3:12 into overtime to give the Tampa Bay Lightning a 4-3 win against the reeling Seattle Kraken. Anthony Cirelli had a goal and an assist, and Nicholas Paul also scored for the Lightning, who have won three of four since a four-game skid. Andrei Vasilevskiy made 26 saves. Oliver Bjorkstrand, Jamie Oleksiak and Jared McCann scored, and Jordan Eberle had two assists for Seattle, which lost its seventh straight. Philipp Grubauer stopped 21 of 23 shots he faced before leaving after two periods due to a lower body injury. Joey Daccord had five saves the rest of the way. In overtime, Kucherov got a backhanded pass from Brandon Hagel and fired it past Daccord for his NHL-leading 19th of the season.
