Goalie Start
Grubauer led the Kraken onto the ice for warmups.
Grubauer has never lived up to expectations since joining the Seattle Kraken in their inaugural 2021-22 season, but he is off to a strong start in 2026-27. The 34-year-old German goalie was excellent in his most recent outing, saving 33 of 36 shots (.917 SV%) in a 5-3 win over the Utah Mammoth. He has a 2.76 GAA and .907 SV% in seven appearances this season (6-1-1). Seattle enters Wednesday's contest as +120 home underdogs against a Toronto Maple Leafs team coming off a 5-2 loss to the Calgary Flames.

Seattle is off to a solid 5-3-1 start this season and has received encouraging goaltending from Grubauer, who has never lived up to being the team's number-one goalie.

The 34-year-old German goalie has a 2.71 GAA and .910 SV% in five games (2-1-1).
