The red-hot Kraken will turn to Daccord for the fifth straight game as they look to extend a season-best seven-game winning streak. Daccord has been sensational since taking the reigns between the pipes due to a Philipp Grubauer injury, helping his team record at least a point in his last 10 games (8-0-2) while posting an other-worldly .957 SV%. More impressively, during that stretch, Daccord has limited his opposition to two or fewer goals in nine of 10 games. With that in mind, the Kraken are -122 road favourites against a Washington Capitals club that has lost six of their last eight games (2-4-2).

One of the hottest goaltenders in the National Hockey League will get the chance to keep things rolling on Tuesday as Joey Daccord gets the nod for the Kraken in Buffalo. Daccord has been on a remarkable run of late, earning his team at least a point in nine straight starts while posting a ridiculous .952 SV% over that span. His recent run of form has seen his SV% climb to .922 on the season. He's a -110 favourite to pick up his sixth consecutive win in Buffalo on Tuesday.

Schwartz has been on long-term injured reserve since November 28th, missing 16 games with an upper-body injury, but returned to practice last week and is scheduled to play on Tuesday. Before his injury, Schwartz was in the midst of a cold streak, scoring only one point (0G / 1A) and registering a -5 plus/minus in his last eight games.

Meyers will be a healthy scratch on Monday as Jason Polin is set to make his NHL debut. Meyers has one goal and no assists in nine games this season.

Evans has semi-regularly been in the lineup for Seatle over the last month and could draw back in after being recalled from Coachella Valley (AHL) on Monday. In nine games, he has four points (0G / 4A), 15 shots on goal, and 11 hits.

Meyers has appeared in eight games for the Avalanche this season and has a goal, six SOG, and a -1 plus/minus while averaging 9:41 TOI/GP and has been recalled Friday after being reassigned to the Colorado Eagles (AHL) Thursday. The 25-year-old miraculously does not have an assist in 52 career NHL games played dispite having six goals.

Daccord was outstanding against the Vegas Golden Knights in the Winter Classic on Monday, saving all 35 shots he faced for his second shutout of the season. The 27-year-old Daccord has been among the league's top goaltenders since taking the reigns as the starting goalie for the Kraken when Philipp Grubauer went down, posting an otherworldly .946 SV% along with two shutouts through 11 games (6-2-3). Seattle is a -124 home favourite on Thursday against the Ottawa Senators, who have lost two of their last three games (1-2-0).

He returns to the Eagles, where he had 13 points (6G/7A) in 19 games prior to his previous call up.

Schwartz has been on long-term injured reserve since November 28th, missing 15 games with an upper-body injury, but appears to be nearing a return after being a full participant at practice on Wednesday. Before his injury, Schwartz was in the midst of a cold streak, scoring only one point (0G / 1A) and registering a -5 plus/minus in his last eight games.

Evans will be the odd-man out on Friday as Justin Schultz draws back into the lineup. Evans has no goals and four assists in nine games this season.

Chris Driedger was terrific in a 2-1 victory over the Calgary Flames in his first action since Philipp Grubauer went down with an injury, but the Kraken will turn back to Daccord on Friday against the Philidelphia Flyers. Daccord has been nothing short of sensational since stepping in as the defacto starting goalie for the Kraken earlier this month, allowing two or fewer goals in six of seven starts (4-1-2), posting a stellar .944 SV%. The Kraken are -127 home favourites against a Flyers team that played last night.

Meyers will re-enter Colorado's lineup on Friday in place of Ross Colton (undisclosed). He has one goal and no assists in five games this season.

Chris Driedger was terrific in a 2-1 victory over the Calgary Flames in his first action since Philipp Grubauer went down with an injury, but the Kraken will likely turn back to Daccord on Friday against the Philidelphia Flyers. Daccord has been nothing short of sensational since stepping in as the defacto starting goalie for the Kraken earlier this month, allowing two or fewer goals in six of seven starts (4-1-2), posting a stellar .944 SV%. The Kraken are -127 home favourites against a Flyers team that played last night and could be without Travis Konecny.

Burakovsky is making significant progress, participating in practice for Seattle and appears to have an imminent return on the horizon after being activated off the Injured Reserve Friday. Burakovsky returned to the lineup from a six-week absence early in December but was immediately injured in his return and has missed three weeks since.

Evans will take the place of Justin Schultz on the Kraken blue-line, with Schultz being listed as a scratch for Saturday's game in Anaheim. Evans has no goals and four assists in seven games with the Kraken this season.
