Head coach Dan Bylsma said Thursday that Sprong has yet to arrive in Seattle due to immigration problems, Kate Shefte of The Seattle Times reports.
The Kraken are expecting Sprong -- who was dealt from Vancouver on Friday -- to finally get through immigration in time for weekend games against the Islanders and Rangers. The 27-year-old had a goal and two assists with 19 shots on net in nine games with the Canucks before the deal. Look for Sprong to see bottom-six minutes with the Kraken, as well as some power-play time.
