Harvard's Donato Scores Kraken's First NHL Goal


Ryan Donato (Harvard) made Seattle Kraken history on Tuesday night.

The former Crimson forward tallied the first goal in the expansion NHL franchise's annals, at 11:32 of the second period in Las Vegas. The goal pulled Seattle to within 3-1 at the time, in an eventual 4-3 loss to the host Golden Knights.

Max Pacioretty (Michigan) scored twice for Vegas, and also assisted on the game-winning goal in the third period, less than a minute after the Kraken had come back to forge a 3-3 tie.

The Kraken will now continue its season-opening five-game road trip before returning to Seattle for its home opener on Oct. 23, against the Vancouver Canucks at Climate Pledge Arena.
