Kakko Buries One on Merzlikins in SEA-CBJ Clash

Kaapo Kakko finds the back of the net against Elvis Merzlikins as the Kraken tangle with the Blue Jackets in Columbus. Kakko, who's been heating up lately, exploits a momentary lapse from the big Latvian netminder who's seen his share of softies this season. This goal shifts the momentum in a game where both teams desperately need points to climb the standings, and front offices are paying close attention to how these fringe playoff hopefuls respond under pressure.
