Wright had four goals in his last five games with the Coachella Firebirds (AHL) and will make his way back into Seattle's lineup after being recalled Monday. The 2022, 1st round pick (4th overall) has one assist and only one SOG through seven games played earlier in the year with the Kraken and will be hoping to improve on his 8:06 ATOI.

Grubauer stopped 20 of 22 shots (.909 SV%) in his previous start vs. Vegas to pick up his first win of the season. The 31-year-old has battled injury all season and struggled in his limited action, posting a 1-1-1 record with a 3.35 GAA and .870 SV%. He will face the Washington Capitals, who have won three of their last four contests after a 5-1 win over Vancouver in their last game.

Philipp Grubauer has not played since leaving a game on October 21st due to an injury where he stopped 17 of 19 shots (.895 SV%) picking up the no-decision. In two starts prior to the injury, he was horrible, posting a .860 SV% and 3.77 GAA. He will hope for better luck Friday as he takes on the Vegas Golden Knights who have won three of their last four games and lead the Pacific Division.

Oleksiak hasn't played since Nov. 8th due to a lower-body injury but will be a gametime decision Wednesday. Through 14 games this season, the 29-year-old has three goals and five points with a +1 plus/minus.

Wright has been a healthy scratch for the last five games and has only appeared in seven of 18 games this season. Wright can stay with Coachella Valley for a maximum of 14 days.

Fleury will be back in the lineup to replace an injured Jamie Oleksiak who will be out for Friday's game. It will be Fleury's season debut with the Kraken after he place nine games with them last season. In 50 career games, Fleury has yet to pick up his first career assist, but has one goal and is a -7 plus/minus with 49 SOG.

Oleksiak's movement to IR was retroactive to November 8th, meaning he'll be eligible to be activated for next Thursday's game vs. the Rangers. The Kraken did not disclose how long they expect him to be sidelined but used his roster spot to recall Gustav Olofsson from the AHL.

Tolvanen has been a healthy scratch for the last three games for Nashville after putting up three points (1G/2A) in eight games to start the season along with 11 SOG.

McCann has missed the Krakens last two games with a lower-body injury and hopes to return Tuesday after skating at practice earlier in the day. In 11 games this season, the 26-year-old has five goals and eight points through 11 games played.

Gibson was recalled Tuesday from the Coachella Valley Firebirds after being demoted last week and passing through waivers. The 29-year-old has struggled mightily this year, posting a glaringly high 7.61 GAA and .706 SV% in two games played with the Firebirds.

Daccord will make his first start of the season for Seattle after posting an ugly .850 SV% and 4.30 GAA with the Kraken last year. The 26-year-old even struggled prior to his call-up, posting a .880 SV% and 3.36 GAA for Coachella (AHL). He should face a ton of rubber as he takes on a Flames team that ranks third in the NHL in SOG per game with 37.4.

Gibson hasn't played in the NHL since getting two starts for the Tampa Bay Lightning back in the 2020-21 season. Across four career NHL seasons, he has four wins and a .901 SV% to go along with a 3.33 GAA through 16 total games played.

Philipp Grubauer's nightmarish season continued Tuesday as the Seattle Kraken placed him on injured reserve with a lower-body injury. There is no timetable for the 30-year-old netminder's return. He was struggling prior to the injury, losing both his starts while posting a .860 SV% and 3.77 GAA. Joey Daccord was recalled from the AHL in a corresponding move.

Grubauer will be looking for his first win of the 2022-23 season after dropping his last outing 5-1 to Carolina in a 29-save losing effort. He has struggled yet again after a rough first season in Seattle, as he currently is sporting a .851 SV% and 4.26 GAA in two starts on the year. He faces a very high-scoring Colorado team (4.25 GF) that is coming off a 4-3 overtime loss to Winnipeg its last time out.
