Daccord hasn't played much lately, often taking a backseat to Philipp Grubauer, but he will return to the crease on Wednesday.

He has an ugly 3.96 GAA and .880 SV% in seven appearances this season (3-3-0). The Kraken enter Wednesday's game as -128 home favourites against a Calgary Flames team that defeated them 6-2 less than a week ago.
