Seattle's top four scorers during the regular season -- forward Jared McCann (70 points; 40 goals, 30 assists), defenseman Vince Dunn (64 points; 14 goals, 50 assists), forward Jordan Eberle (63 points; 20 goals, 43 assists) and center Matty Beniers (57 points; 24 goals, 33 assists) -- have no points through two games.
Colorado's top four -- center Nathan MacKinnon (111 points; 42 goals, 69 assists), forward Mikko Rantanen (105 points; 55 goals, 50 assists), defenseman Cale Makar (66 points; 17 goals, 49 assists) and forward J.T. Compher (52 points; 17 goals, 35 assists) -- have three. Rantanen has a goal, and MacKinnon and Makar each has an assist.
Neither team has scored on the power play in the series; the Kraken are 0-for-5, the Avalanche 0-for-4.
"I think chances are a lot more limited and harder to come by because it's playoffs, but I think we're doing well," Beniers said. "Definitely could have a few right now, but they're not going in yet. As long as we're helping the team, building momentum and winning, it doesn't really matter."
MacKinnon seems close to breaking through against Seattle goalie Philipp Grubauer.
"I am getting good chances, and I am creating, so I just have to trust that my shot will eventually beat him," MacKinnon said.
