Chris Dreidger was reassigned to Coachella Valley (AHL) and Grubauer was a full participant in practice Saturday so the 32-year-old net minder is expected to be good to go fro Seattle's next game. He has struggled mightily for a third-straight season with his 5-6-0 record, 3.36 GAA and .885 SV%.
Grubauer left the Kraken's game Monday vs. Calgary after the first period due to an undisclosed injury and did not practice Tuesday. He is considered day-to-day and Chris Driedger is expected to get the call-up in his absense. The 31-year-old netminder is on pace for his worst statistical season in his three years in Seattle, as he is 5-6-0 with a .885 SV% and a 3.36 GAA.
Grubauer has started two straight for the Kraken and will start again on Monday against the Calgary Flames. Despite having won an impressive five of his last seven games (5-2-0), Grubauer is doing the bare minimum between the pipes for the Kraken, posting a subpar .884 SV% during that stretch. In fact, three of Grubauer's five wins have been sub-.885 SV% performances as the German goaltender has only three quality starts through 11 games this season. The Kraken are slight -104 home underdogs against a Flames team that has collected a point in three straight (2-0-1).

Grubauer draws a second consecutive start after he won the Kraken's previous outing vs. the Islanders after stopping 20 of 23 shots (.870 SV%). The 31-year-old is producing a sub .900 SV% for a third-straight season as he's 4-6-0 with a .890 SV% and a 3.30 GAA. He takes on the high flying Vancouver Canucks, who have won seven of their last nine games and are 1st in the NHL in goals per game (4.24).
Grubauer will return to the Kraken crease on Thursday after Seattle turned to Joey Daccord for each of the team's last two games. Grubauer's last start came via a 4-1 defeat to the Oilers on Saturday, when he surrendered four goals on just 17 shots before being lifted from the game in favour of Daccord. His record on the season now sits at 3-6-0 to go along with his .891 SV% and 3.31 GAA. He'll hope to get things back on track in a decent home matchup against the Islanders in a pick 'em game on Thursday.
Grubauer will get the start on Thursday against his former team, marking his fourth start in the Kraken's last five games. In his last three games (2-1-0), Grubauer has saved 91 of 100 shots (.910 SV%). Grubauer has historically been very good against the Avalanche, most recently leading the Kraken to knock them out in the Western Conference Quarterfinals. The Kraken are +169 road underdogs on Thursday but could put up a strong fight against an Avalanche team that has been shut out in three of their last five games (2-3-0) and will be starting Ivan Prosvetov in net.

Grubauer will start his third straight contest as Seattle takes on Calgary Saturday after winning his last two contests by stopping a combined 66 of 71 shots against (.929 SV%). The 31-year-old has looked much like his normal self for the first time since joining Seattle in 2023-24, as he holds a .909 SV%, 2.83 GAA and 2-4-0 record. He takes on one of the NHL's coldest teams in the Calgary Flames, who have lost six straight games and are 28th in the NHL in goals per game (2.2).
Grubauer will be the starter on Thursday, giving him consecutive starts after serving as backup to Joey Daccord for the three games prior. In his most recent outing, Grubauer was excellent, saving 34 of 37 shots against the Tampa Lightning in a 4-3 overtime victory, his first of the season. The Seattle Kraken are -116 home favourites as they welcome the Nashville Predators, who rank in the bottom third of the league offensively (2.86 GF / GP).

In his third season now with the Kraken, he has amassed an ugly 3.04 GAA and .891 SV%.

Despite this, Grubauer has played relatively well for the Kraken, recording a 2.55 GAA and .918 SV% in two games (0-2-0). Grubauer struggled last season with a 2.85 GAA and .895 SV% but was consistently good against his former Avalanche club, posting a 1.70 GAA and .928 SV% in three appearances (1-0-1).
