Tolvanen (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision Friday vs. St. Louis.
Tolvanen is battling an undisclosed ailment and his status is up in the air ahead of Friday's matchup against the St. Louis Blues. After scoring seven points (2G / 5A) during a five-game point streak, Tolvanen has been held to only one point (1G / 0A) in his last five games.

Daccord will start against the Blackhawks on Wednesday.
Despite Philipp Grubauer being ready to return from a lower-body injury, it will be Daccord between the pipes for the Kraken when they host the Blackhawks on Wednesday. To say that Daccord deserves to hold onto the starting job in Seattle would be a massive understatement. Since Grubauer suffered the lower-body injury on December 9th, Daccord has been one of the best goaltenders in the NHL, posting a 10-4-3 record and a .939 SV% across 17 starts. He draws a dream matchup at home on Wednesday with the Kraken being -300 favourites over the Blackhawks.

Grubauer has been out since December 9th with a lower-body injury but was activated off the Injured Reserve Tuesday. Joey Daccord may have stolen the 32-year-old Grubauer's starting position after he posted a subpar 5-9-1 record, 3.25 GAA and .884 SV% before his injury early in the season.
Dunn (undisclosed) is available to return Wednesday vs. Chicago.
Dunn has missed the last four games with an undisclosed injury but will likely return to the lineup on Wednesday after being a full participant at practice on Tuesday. Before his injury, Dunn was on a tremendous run, with 10 points (4G / 6A) in his last eight games.
