Daccord will make his first start of the season for Seattle after posting an ugly .850 SV% and 4.30 GAA with the Kraken last year. The 26-year-old even struggled prior to his call-up, posting a .880 SV% and 3.36 GAA for Coachella (AHL). He should face a ton of rubber as he takes on a Flames team that ranks third in the NHL in SOG per game with 37.4.
Chris Driedger landed on IR on Wednesday morning, so Daccord comes up to serve as Philipp Grubauer's backup. Daccord has gone 3-4-1 with a 2.35 GAA and .915 SV% in eight AHL games this season.
Daccord left Wednesday's game vs. the Canucks with an apparent leg injury and is expected to miss some time. Daccord had been playing well, stopping 77 of the last 85 shots (.906 SV%) in his last three appearances. With Matt Murray also hurt, Filip Gustavsson becomes their No.1, but Ottawa is off until Monday.
Daccord, 22, was a seventh-round pick of the Senators in 2015 and joined the Senators after his Junior Year at Arizona State University. Daccord was 21-12-1 with a 2.36 GAA and .926 SV% at ASU and with the Senators 30 points out of the playoffs with two games left, they will get a look at Daccord tonight in Buffalo.
