SEATTLE -- One is paid, at least in part, to score goals.
The other is paid to prevent them.
Neither has done his job particularly well this season.
Second-line left winger Jason Zucker has one goal in his past 18 games, and Casey DeSmith has a goals-against average (4.32) that is the seventh-worst among the 82 goaltenders who have appeared in an NHL game this season.
Both will get a chance to address the shortcomings in their games when the Penguins face the Kraken tonight at 10:08 at Climate Pledge Arena.
