Seattle Kraken News

Fisker-Molgaard will dress in place of Jaden Schwartz, who was a late scratch due to a lower-body injury. Fisker-Molgaard has zero goals and one assist in two career NHL games.

Schwartz was a surprise scratch on Wednesday, with the Kraken not announcing his absence prior to warmups. Oscar Fisker-Molgaard will dress in his place.

After sitting out Tuesday night's game, Daccord will get the start for the tail-end of Seattle's back-to-back on Wednesday. Daccord is on a bit of a heater right now, winning each of his last three starts while posting a .933 SV% in the process. The Kraken will be hoping he is every bit as sharp in Los Angeles on Wednesday, as they enter action at +145 on the money line.

Fisker-Molgaard made his NHL debut earlier this season, scoring one assist in two games with the Kraken. The 20-year-old, a second-round pick in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft, has spent most of the season in the AHL, where he has 22 points (7G / 15A) in 36 games.

Grubauer will get the call between the pipes for the 19th time this season when the Kraken travel to Anaheim on Tuesday. The 34-year-old netminder turned in another impressive performance in his last start, allowing just a single goal on 20 shots in a 5-1 win over the Capitals. Grubauer carries an 11-5-3 record and a .919 SV% into Tuesday's game, where the Kraken enter action at +115 on the money line.

Catton suffered an upper-body injury in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs and did not play the final two periods of the game. The 20-year-old rookie has 11 points (5G / 6A) in 40 games this season and it is unclear what his status will be on Saturday against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Daccord has been outplayed in recent weeks by Phillipp Grubauer, but he is coming off a solid performance, saving 27 of 29 shots (.931 SV%) in a 4-2 win over the New Jersey Devils. The 29-year-old Daccord has a 3.34 GAA and .888 SV% in his last six games (3-3-0). Seattle enters the action on Thursday as slight -112 home favourites against a struggling Toronto Maple Leafs team on a five-game losing streak (0-4-1).

Despite a 4-2 loss to the Anaheim Ducks in his most recent game, Grubauer played well, saving 27 of 30 shots (.900 SV%) to continue his resurgent 2025-26 season. The 34-year-old German goalie has an excellent 2.11 GAA and .932 SV% in his last 10 games (6-2-2). The Kraken enter the action on Tuesday as +108 home underdogs against a Washington Capitals team that has lost five of its last six games (1-4-1).

The Kraken will stick with the hot-hand on Friday night and hand Grubauer his 17th start of the season when they host the Ducks. Grubauer was outstanding in his last start, allowing just a single goal on 25 shots in a 4-1 win over the Islanders on Wednesday. The 34-year-old carries a 10-4-3 record and .919 SV% into Friday night's matchup, where the Kraken enter action at -120 on the money line.

Melanson returns from the AHL after Ben Meyers landed on IR on Wednesday. Melanson has been an absolute wrecking ball on the Kraken's fourth line, averaging 4.3 hits per game in his 15 games this season. During his time in the AHL, the 22-year-old has picked up 16 points (7G / 9A) in 26 games with Coachella Valley.

Meyers was hurt in the Kraken's win over the Islanders on Tuesday and landed on IR on Wednesday. Jacob Melanson was recalled to take Meyers' spot on the roster, and will likely replace him on the fourth line on Thursday. Meyers is considered week-to-week, so he may be out until after the Olympic break.

Grubauer has been excellent in recent weeks, his most consistent stint as a member of the Kraken, but he is coming off a performance where he allowed five goals on 30 shots (.833 SV%) in a 6-3 loss to the Utah Mammoth. Heading into his most recent loss, the 34-year-old Grubauer was sporting an impressive 2.14 GAA and .934 SV% in his previous 10 games (5-3-2). Seattle enters the action on Wednesday with even -105 odds at home against a New York Islanders team that is 6-3-1 in their last 10 games.
