SEATTLE (AP) 鈥� Warren Foegele scored twice, including the go-ahead goal in the third period, and the Edmonton Oilers beat the Seattle Kraken 5-3 on Saturday night.

McCann had the second goal about five minutes later, when Eberle鈥檚 pass from behind the net found him right in front. It was McCann鈥檚 12th goal, tying him with Eberle for the team lead.

The teams traded goals in the second period. Sceviour scored with seven minutes to go, and Soucy it again with 3 1/2 minutes left in the second.
McDavid had an empty-net goal in the final minute.
