Eberle suffered a cut from a skate blade to the upper part of his leg in practice on Wednesday. Kraken GM Ron Francis said that they think they "dodged a bullet" but that Eberle is going to be "sore," so don't expect him to play Thursday in Colorado. The Kraken recalled Shane Wright and Ryan Winterton from the AHL and one of them will take Eberle's spot in the lineup.
Stephenson is expected to miss the next two games as he tends to an upper-body injury.

After watching Philipp Grubauer start the previous three games, Daccord will return the starter's crease for the Kraken on Tuesday.

The Kraken are slight -106 road favourites against an Arizona Coyotes team that has lost four of their last six (2-3-1). After losing their first four games (0-3-1), the Kraken have slowly begun to right the ship, registering points in five of their last eight (4-3-1).

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%).
