Grubauer will make his third consecutive start on Thursday as Joey Daccord remains unavailable due to an upper-body injury. Grubauer was stellar his last time out, allowing just two goals on 30 shots in a 5-2 victory over Utah on Monday. It was just the fifth victory in 15 starts this season for Grubauer, who owns an .878 SV% on the year. He and the Kraken enter action on Thursday as slight favourites at -125 on the money line.

Daccord did not practice again on Wednesday and is not expected to be able to back up when Seattle takes on Vancouver on Thursday due to a lingering upper-body bruise. The 28-year-old goaltender last appeared for Seattle on December 22nd and currently has a 12-9-2 record, 2.51 GAA and .912 SV% in 23 appearances.

With Joey Daccord still sidelined with an upper-body injury, the Kraken will hand Grubauer the start for a second straight game on Monday. Grubauer got the win his last time out, allowing four goals on 22 shots in a 5-4 overtime victory in Vancouver on Saturday. It was a much needed win for the 33-year-old netminder, who has lost ten of his 14 starts on the season. He's got a good chance of staying in the win column on Monday as the Kraken enter action against Utah as slight underdogs at +125 on the money line.

In his first NHL action in nearly two years, the 30-year-old Murray posted a 3.54 GAA and .879 SV% in two games with the Maple Leafs (1-1-0). Before being recalled earlier this month, Murray had been impressive in limited AHL action this season, posting a 1.85 GAA and .931 SV% in eight games (4-1-2). The Maple Leafs recalled Dennis Hildeby from the Marlies (AHL) in a corresponding move.

Marchment was struck in the face by a puck in the first period of Friday's game and was unable to return. We should get an update on his status ahead of the Stars' game in Chicago on Sunday.

Daccord reportedly suffered the injury in Seattle's last game before the holiday break but was able to stay in. The team did not provide any further details on his injury. Philipp Grubauer is the projected starter in Daccord's absence.
