Seattle Kraken News

After four dreadful seasons with Seattle, posting a 3.07 GAA and .890 SV% in 156 games (57-78-12), Grubauer finally looks like the goalie that the team signed to a six-year, $35.4 million contract ($5.9M AAV) in 2021. The 34-year-old Grubauer has helped his team record at least a point in four straight outings (4-0-1), posting a tremendous 1.45 GAA and .960 SV%. He has a 2.27 GAA and .925 SV% through 15 appearances this season (8-3-2). The Kraken enter Monday's contest as +117 road underdogs against a New York Rangers team with a dreadful 5-11-4 record on home ice this season.

Stephenson and his wife are reportedly expecting a baby, so Stephenson has been designated non-roster and will miss Saturday's game. Luckily for the Kraken, they'll get Jaden Schwartz back from a lengthy injury absence to replace Stephenson.

Schwartz has been out since November 26th but is expected to be back in the lineup Saturday in Carolina. Schwartz is expected to take Chandler Stephenson's spot in the lineup after Stephenson was designated non-roster.

The Kraken will be without one of their top offensive contributors in recent weeks, as Eberle was absent from the team's morning skate on Thursday. The 35-year-old veteran forward has turned back the clock lately, with 14 points (7G / 7A) in his last 17 games.

Tolvanen is battling an illness, but will play on Thursday against the Minnesota Wild. The 26-year-old has zero points in his last four games, but is otherwise having a great season, with 25 points (7G / 18A) in 40 games.
