Earns assist in return Gourde notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.

Impact This was Gourde's first game back after sports hernia surgery. He missed nearly two months in total due to the lower-body injury that required an operation. The 33-year-old forward is up to 17 points, 40 shots on net, 36 PIM, 59 hits and 26 blocked shots over 36 appearances. Gourde, a pending unrestricted free agent this summer, is expected to be highly coveted ahead of Friday's trade deadline, so his time with the Kraken may be near a close if a deal can be made.

Lifted from LTIR Gourde (abdomen) was activated from long-term injured reserve Tuesday, per Emerald City Hockey.

Impact Gourde was deemed a game-time decision for Tuesday's contest versus the Wild, and this move clears the path for him to return from a 22-game absence. Ben Meyers was sent down to AHL Coachella Valley in a corresponding move. Gourde's return to the lineup comes just three days before the trade deadline, and the 33-year-old is considered a top trade target for contenders who want to bolster their forward depth.

Game-time call against Minnesota Gourde (abdomen) is a game-time decision for Tuesday's home matchup against the Wild, Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network reports.

Impact Gourde last suited up against Vancouver on Jan. 2. In order to play Tuesday, the Quebec native would need to be activated from long-term injured reserve. As soon as he's at full strength, Gourde would more than likely replace Ben Meyers in the lineup. Before being placed on the shelf, Gourde produced six goals and 10 helpers over 35 appearances.

Impact Gourde's move to LTIR is unlikely to impact his recovery timeline. He's expected to be out for another couple of weeks at a minimum as he recovers from sports hernia surgery.

Seattle Kraken center Yanni Gourde is expected to be out five to seven weeks after undergoing surgery to repair a sports hernia

JANUARY 31, 2025 • Associated Press

Undergoes surgery Gourde underwent sports hernia surgery Friday and is expected to miss an additional 5-7 weeks.

Impact Gourde has battled a lower-body injury off and on for part of the season, and it's possible this surgery is to address that issue. It's unlikely he'll be available prior to early March, which could make it difficult if the Kraken are looking to trade him, as the deadline is March 7. He can still be dealt if the receiving team is okay with having him at the tail end of his recovery. If he stays with the Kraken, he'll likely resume a bottom-six role once he's ready to play again.
