Seattle Kraken News

Grubauer will return to the Kraken crease on Monday after Joey Daccord got the nod in Saturday's 3-0 defeat at the hands of the Stars. Grubauer snapped a personal four-game losing streak his last time out, allowing two goals on 23 shots in a 4-2 victory over the Ducks on Thursday. The 32-year-old netminder has performed well since returning from a lower-body injury in mid-February, posting a 6-4-1 record and a .913 SV% across 13 appearances. He draws an ideal matchup on Monday as the Kraken find themselves as -225 favourites in San Jose.

Wright was called up from Coachella Valley (AHL) on Sunday and was skating alongside Jaden Schwartz and Jordan Eberle at Seattle's morning skate and is expected to suit up vs. San Jose. The 20-year-old former fourth-overall pick appeared in three games earlier this season with the Kraken but failed to produce anything while averaging just 9:47 TOI/GP.

Dunn has not played since March 4th when he was on the receiving end of a high hit from Calgary's Martin Pospisil, which landed him a three-game suspension. The 27-year-old Dunn was enjoying another productive season with Seattle and had six points (3G / 3A) in his last seven games before his injury.

Fleury has been recalled by Seattle for a second time this season on an emergency basis after putting up 32 points (6G/26A) in 60 games with the Coachella Valley Firebirds (AHL). The 25-year-old has appeared in 12 games for the Kraken so far this season and has an assist, and two PIMs with limited ice time.

Evans left Sunday's contest vs. Montreal due to a lower-body injury after only 2:22 TOI and did not play on Tuesday. The 22-year-old rookie looks likely to return to the lineup on Thursday against the Anaheim Ducks and will look to add to his eight points (1G/7A) and 30 SOG in 25 games.

Daccord recorded a 12-save shutout against the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday, but Seattle will turn to Grubauer in Thursday's rematch. Grubauer has lost five straight, allowing three or more goals four times, including four on six shots (.333 SV%) before being pulled in his last outing, a 5-1 loss to the Montreal Canadiens. That said, Seattle enters action as a sizeable -217 home favourite against the Ducks.

Lindgren left last Sunday's game after a scary leg injury that fortunately left him with only a week-to-week prognosis and will be able to return on Thursday. The 26-year-old defenseman has two goals, 13 points, 60 SOG, 30 PIMs and a +19 plus/minus through 66 games played before his injury.

Dragicevic is Seattle's 2023 2nd round pick (57th overall) and has signed a three-year, entry-level contract on Thursday. The 18-year-old puck-moving defenseman just completed his third WHL regular season with Tri-City (WHL) and had an impressive 14 goals and 50 points in 66 games played.

Seattle will aim to snap an eight-game losing skid on Tuesday and will turn to Daccord in the crease. Daccord played well in relief on Sunday, saving 10 of 11 shots (.909 SV%) in a 5-1 loss to the Montreal Canadiens. In his outing before that, Daccord saved 24 of 26 shots (.923 SV%) in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Arizona Coyotes and saw his bid for a shutout end with less than two minutes to play in regulation. Seattle enters action as a -206 home favourite against the Anaheim Ducks.

Morrison and Ryan Winterton will both enter the lineup on Tuesday for Seattle as Kailer Yamamoto and Tomas Tatar will be healthy scratches. The 21-year-old Morrison has 40 points (15G / 25A) in 60 games with the Coachella Valley Firebirds (AHL).
