Jared McCann and Ryan Winterton scored for Seattle. Joey Daccord stopped 22 shots for the Kraken.
McCann beat Lankinen with a powerful shot at 8:50 for his first goal since returning from injury on Sunday after missing seven games earlier this month.
McCann and Connor Garland dropped the gloves 4:43 into the first period, seemingly in retaliation for an earlier elbow thrown by Garland to McCann that went unpunished. Carlsen scored on the next play, tying the score with a shot.
With 20 seconds left in the first quarter, Winterton rewritten the score to 2-1. Pettersson tied the game at 5:23 of the second, beating Daccord cleanly.
