SEATTLE (AP) Tomas Tatar and Andre Burakovsky scored 3:43 apart late in the second period as the Seattle Kraken beat the Ottawa Senators 4-1 on Thursday night for their sixth straight victory.

Yanni Gourde scored in the first period and Vince Dunn had an empty-net goal and an assist for the Kraken, riding a franchise-record 10-game point streak. Joey Daccord followed up his Winter Classic shutout with 32 saves, and Jordan Eberle added two assists.

ā€œItā€™s fun to see our guys play so well and get rewarded for it,ā€ Daccord said. ā€œWe werenā€™t getting rewarded as much as we would have liked in the first little bit of the season.ā€

Parker Kelly scored his third goal and Joonas Korpisalo stopped 24 shots for the Senators, who have lost three of four.

ā€œFive minutes cost us the hockey game,ā€ interim coach Jacques Martin said. ā€œSome areas of our game were good. I think itā€™s a step in the right direction, but weā€™ve got to learn the game is 60 minutes, and weā€™ve got to learn to manage the game better.ā€

Daccord kept Ottawa off the board until Kelly's deflection with 7:40 left. He hadnā€™t allowed a goal since early in the first period of Seattleā€™s win against Philadelphia on Dec. 29, giving him the longest shutout streak in team history.

The expansion Kraken joined the NHL for the 2021-22 season.

ā€œIt would have been nicer if Iā€™d got another shutout tonight,ā€ Daccord joked. ā€œA winā€™s great, and Iā€™m happy to just keep this train rolling.ā€

Gourde slammed in a rebound midway through the first for his sixth goal this season.

Tatar was given an open lane thanks to a nifty pass from Eberle and beat Korpisalo with 4:40 left in the second. Burakovsky added another with 57 seconds to go in the period when he converted a 2-on-1 pass from Kailer Yamamoto.

It was the first goal this season for Burakovsky, sidelined most of the way with an upper-body injury.

ā€œIt was a great play by him. I didnā€™t expect him to give it back to me,ā€ Burakovsky said. ā€œIt feels good to have some luck on your side. I had lots of bad breaks this year and last year. It was good to see it go in, for sure.ā€

Dunn added his empty-netter with just more than two minutes left in the third.

ā€œWe were a little bit too much on our heels for a stretch of minutes, and thatā€™s where the Tatar goal was a huge goal for us in this hockey game,ā€ Seattle coach Dave Hakstol said. ā€œAnd for Burky, thatā€™s the type of goal that just helps continue getting him confident and feeling good about himself, so it was really good to see him finish that.ā€
