Adam Fox scored the go-ahead goal with 7:50 remaining as the New York Rangers defeated the host Seattle Kraken 3-1 Sunday night.

Chris Kreider and Barclay Goodrow also tallied for the Rangers, who opened a four-game Western trip. Goaltender Igor Shesterkin made 31 saves as New York won for the sixth time in its past seven games.

Jordan Eberle scored and Philipp Grubauer stopped 14 of 16 shots for the expansion Kraken, who had a two-game winning streak snapped.

The winner came after Shesterkin made a point-blank save on Seattle's Chris Tanev. The puck got batted up the ice and New York's Artemi Panarin skated it over the blue line on the left wing. He crossed toward the middle and dropped a pass for Fox, the reigning Norris Trophy winner as the league's top defenseman. Fox took a wrist shot from between the top of the faceoff circle that eluded a sliding defender and beat Grubauer high to the glove side.

Goodrow added an empty-net goal at 18:21 of the third, shortly after making a skate save while splayed on the ice in his own crease.

The Rangers opened the scoring at 3:38 of the first period. Goodrow gained control of the puck just inside the Rangers' own blue line and fired a cross-ice pass off the boards on the opposite side of the rink that sent Kreider skating down the right wing at full stride on a two-on-one breakaway with Mika Zibanejad. When Kreider reached the faceoff circle, he snapped off a wrist shot that beat Grubauer high to the glove side. It was Kreider's seventh goal of the season, which is tied for second in the NHL and two behind Washington's Alex Ovechkin.

The Kraken tied the score at 13:46 of the second as Eberle surprised Shesterkin with a backhander from the right faceoff dot. Seattle defenseman Adam Larsson lifted the puck deep out of his own zone and it fell at New York's blue line, where Jaden Schwartz poked it away from the defenseman. Schwartz regained control along the boards and sent a pass to Eberle, who whipped around and sent a backhander through the legs of defenseman Jacob Trouba and over Shesterkin's catching glove.
