Pots goal Friday Meyers scored a goal on eight shots in Friday's 4-3 shootout win over the Canucks.

Impact It was an inspired effort for the fourth-line center, who had more than twice as many shots as any of his teammates. Meyers is clicking with Ryan Winterton and Jacob Melanson on the fourth line lately, though it's still an assignment that leads to little offense on a low-scoring team. Meyers has three goals, six points, 31 shots, 24 hits and a minus-2 rating over 21 appearances this season.

Impact Meyers' tally late in the third period -- after two Mammoth empty-netters -- was his first goal in a Kraken uniform. He's done fairly well when called upon this year, earning four points, nine shots on net, 16 hits and a minus-1 rating over 11 appearances. Meyers will likely have a chance at a fourth-line role as long as Jared McCann (lower body) and Jaden Schwartz (lower body) are out.

Rejoins big club Meyers was recalled from AHL Coachella Valley on Tuesday.

Impact Meyers will take the roster spot of Berkly Catton (upper body), who is out on a week-to-week basis. In nine appearances with the Kraken this year, Meyers has earned three assists, eight shots on net and 14 hits while averaging 9:39 of ice time. The 27-year-old will be a candidate for fourth-line minutes.

Pots pair of goals in AHL win Meyers scored twice in AHL Coachella Valley's 5-0 win over San Diego on Friday.

Impact Meyers is up to six goals and two assists through seven AHL outings, including six points over four games since he returned from a stint with the Kraken. The 27-year-old forward had three assists over nine NHL games earlier this season and could be an option for a call-up should another wave of injuries strike the big club.

Dropped to AHL Meyers was loaned to AHL Coachella Valley on Sunday.

Impact Meyers was a healthy scratch in Saturday's 4-1 win over San Jose because Frederick Gaudreau returned to the lineup from an upper-body injury. The 27-year-old Meyers has three assists, eight shots on net and 14 hits in nine NHL appearances this season.

Steady in limited minutes Meyers has picked up two assists over his first three games at the NHL level this season.

Impact Meyers has topped 10 minutes of ice time in just one of those contests, but it's not stopping him from making an impact. He's yet to log a shot on goal, but he has added six hits and a plus-1 rating in a fourth-line role. Meyers and John Hayden have earned call-ups to fill in for Jared McCann (lower body), Kaapo Kakko (hand) and Frederick Gaudreau (upper body), and it's unclear if there will be room on the NHL roster for Meyers once the team gets healthy.

Called up from minors Meyers was recalled from AHL Coachella Valley on Tuesday.

Impact Meyers' promotion likely indicates that Jared McCann (lower body) won't be ready to suit up versus the Capitals on Tuesday, giving the Kraken an extra healthy forward. Even with his elevation to the NHL roster, the 26-year-old Meyers is far from a lock to play against Washington, and would need to edge out the likes of Berkly Catton, Tye Kartye or Jani Nyman for a spot in the lineup.

Pair of goals in loss to Condors Meyers scored twice on three shots in AHL Coachella Valley's 5-4 overtime loss to Bakersfield on Sunday.

Impact Meyers netted his first two goals of the year, but the Firebirds remain winless (0-2-1-0) on the season. The 26-year-old forward hasn't been at the top of the list for a call-up to the Kraken yet, even with Kaapo Kakko (hand) and Frederick Gaudreau (upper body) on injured reserve. Meyers could be an option to replace John Hayden on the roster, and he could also get a look with the big club as a spare forward if Berkly Catton is ultimately returned to his junior club.

Waived by Seattle Meyers was placed on waivers by the Kraken on Thursday.

Impact Meyers inked a one-year contract with Seattle in June but was unable to land a spot on the team's Opening Night roster. He'll head to AHL Coachella Valley if he clears waivers, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him spend most of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors.

Impact Despite it being a one-way contract, Meyers will probably spend most of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors. He produced 23 tallies and 28 assists in 57 regular-season games for AHL Coachella Valley in 2024-25 before adding one goal and two helpers in six playoff outings. The 26-year-old forward didn't earn a point in eight NHL regular-season appearances with Seattle in 2024-25 while posting four shots on goal and nine hits.

Demoted to minors Meyers was shipped down to AHL Coachella Valley on Friday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

Impact Meyers has appeared in eight games for the Kraken this season but has yet to register a point while averaging 8:21 of ice time. If the 26-year-old winger does get called back up during the rest of the campaign, he figures to slot into a bottom-six role where he will offer minimal offensive upside.

Up from minors Meyers was recalled by Seattle on Wednesday.

Impact Meyers has 19 goals and 40 points in 46 outings with AHL Coachella Valley this season. He has also appeared in seven games with Seattle, recording no points, three shots and six hits. The Kraken needed reinforcements after trading Oliver Bjorkstrand and Yanni Gourde to Tampa Bay.
