GAME LOG
Jordan Eberle - Deposits empty-netter Eberle scored an empty-net goal on two shots and added a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Flames.
Impact Eberle's remained steady in April with three goals and an assist over his last six games. The 35-year-old is up to 26 goals, 55 points, 166 shots on net, 54 hits, 42 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 77 appearances. This is his best year for goals since he potted 28 over 80 contests in 2013-14 with the Oilers in his fourth year in the league.

Matty Beniers - Hits 20-goal mark Beniers scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Flames.
Impact Beniers had been limited to two helpers over his last eight outings. The 23-year-old center was able to get to the 20-goal mark for the third time in his four full NHL campaigns despite the recent slowdown. He has 48 points, 149 shots on net, 66 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 79 appearances this season in a top-line role.

Niklas Kokko - Picks up first NHL win Kokko stopped 26 of 27 shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Flames.
Impact This was Kokko's second NHL appearance and his first start, and he took care of business in a soft matchup. The 22-year-old is getting an unexpected look late in the season since the Kraken are without Joey Daccord (lower body), Philipp Grubauer (lower body) and Matt Murray (personal). The Kraken have three games left on the schedule, coming over a four-day span, so Kokko should be penciled in for at least one more appearance if Daccord and Grubauer remain out. Kokko would likely get two games if Murray is also away from the team for the last week of the season. Next up is the home finale versus the Kings on Monday.

Shane Wright - Out Saturday Wright (upper body) is expected to miss Saturday's game against Calgary, per Sound of Hockey.
Impact Wright hasn't been in the lineup since March 28 because of the injury. He has 11 goals and 26 points in 72 outings in 2025-26. His next opportunity to return will come Monday versus Los Angeles.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Philipp Grubauer - Still sidelined Saturday Grubauer (lower body) will miss Saturday's home contest against the Flames, per Sound of Hockey.
Impact Grubauer will miss his third consecutive game Saturday while Nikke Kokko makes his NHL debut. Both Grubauer and Joey Daccord (lower body) are dealing with injury concerns, which could stymie the Kraken's playoff hopes across the final few games of the regular season. Grubauer's next chance to return to Seattle's lineup is Monday's home matchup with the Kings.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Niklas Kokko - Set for first NHL start Kokko will patrol the home crease against Calgary on Saturday, per Sound of Hockey.
Impact Due to the absences of Joey Daccord (lower body) and Philipp Grubauer (lower body), Kokko appears poised to make his first NHL start. The 22-year-old Kokko made a relief appearance against St. Louis on Feb. 25, 2025, and he allowed two goals on six shots in a 7-2 loss. He has gone 18-10-2 with a 3.10 GAA and a .903 save percentage in 34 AHL appearances this season.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Joey Daccord - Unavailable Saturday Daccord (lower body) won't be in the lineup for Saturday's home matchup against Calgary.
Impact The Kraken recalled Victor Ostman from AHL Coachella Valley on Saturday under emergency conditions. With Philipp Grubauer (lower body) unlikely to be available, Seattle could dress Niklas Kokko and Ostman as its goalies against the Flames on Saturday.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Victor Ostman - Recalled from AHL Ostman was summoned from AHL Coachella Valley on Saturday.
Impact Ostman has spent the entire season in the AHL, posting a 17-14-3 record with a 2.77 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 35 games. The Swedish netminder made his NHL debut last April, stopping all 12 shots in relief, in a 7-1 loss to Utah. Ostman will replace Joey Daccord (lower-body) in the Seattle lineup Saturday against Calgary.

Joey Daccord - Being evaluated Daccord missed Friday's practice and is being evaluated due to an undisclosed injury, per Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network.
Impact Benton added that Daccord was sore after stopping 32 of 35 shots en route to a 4-3 shootout win over Vegas on Thursday. The 29-year-old Daccord has a 20-20-6 record, 3.03 GAA and .896 save percentage in 47 appearances this season. Seattle might find itself without Daccord, Philipp Grubauer (lower body) and Matt Murray (personal) for Saturday's home game against Calgary. In that scenario, Niklas Kokko would probably get the start, and the Kraken would need to recall another goaltender to serve as the understudy.

Vince Dunn - Provides pair of helpers Dunn logged two assists, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Golden Knights.
Impact One of Dunn's helpers came on the power play. The 29-year-old defenseman had gone eight games without a point prior to Thursday. He's up to 43 points (21 on the power play), 167 shots on net, 80 blocked shots, 44 PIM and a minus-27 rating through 77 appearances in a top-pairing role.
APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE
Berkly Catton - Tallies in Thursday's shootout win Catton scored a goal in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Catton ended his 11-game goal drought with a third-period tally to set the Kraken on the comeback trail. The 20-year-old has mostly seen third-line usage lately, though the team has tried a number of line combinations amid a late-season skid. Catton also had the decisive goal in the shootout Thursday. He's at seven goals, 17 points, 76 shots on net, 29 PIM and a minus-8 rating over 62 appearances as a rookie this season.
APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE
Jared McCann - Reaches 20-goal mark again McCann scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Golden Knights.
Impact McCann has scored in two of the last three games and has gotten back to the 20-goal mark on the year. The 29-year-old forward has reached that level in all five of his campaigns with the Kraken. He's at 39 points, 115 shots on net, 40 hits and a minus-8 rating over 51 appearances this season. While McCann is firmly in a middle-six role, he's made good use of his opportunities when healthy to stay productive.
