Kraken's Vince Dunn: Aiming for November return
Vince Dunn (upper body) will travel with the Seattle Kraken for an upcoming two-game road trip but won't be back in action until late November, Scott Malone of Root Sports reports.Based on Dunn's timeline, fantasy players could potentially target Nov. 29 or 30 versus the Sharks as a possible return date for the blueliner. Out since mid-October, the 28-year-old Ontario native started the 2024-25 campaign off strong with points in three of his four appearances. Once given the all-clear, Dunn should offer decent offensive upside while retaking a power-play role.

Kraken's Vince Dunn: Return not imminent
Vince Dunn (upper body) is set to resume skating around Sunday, but he won't be ready to play for roughly three weeks, Alison Lukan of the Seattle Kraken Hockey Network reports.Dunn's already missed 10 games as of Friday, and it appears his absence will linger much longer than the minimum required by his placement on long-term injured reserve. Ryker Evans will continue to hold down a power-play role while Josh Mahura stays in the lineup during Dunn's absence.

Kraken's Vince Dunn: Held out late Thursday
Vince Dunn didn't play in the third period of Thursday's 6-4 win over the Flyers, but Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports that was for precautionary reasons.After the game, Dunn was present in the locker room, further supporting the notion that his absence is nothing to worry about at this time. The defenseman missed a game Sunday in Dallas with an upper-body injury sustained versus the Wild last Saturday. In 13:10 of ice time, Dunn put up an assist and blocked two shots in Thursday's game, giving him three points, 10 blocks and a minus-2 rating over four appearances this season. For now, it's safe to assume Dunn will be in the lineup Saturday versus the Flames -- if his status downgrades over the next couple of days, look for Ryker Evans to again move up the lineup while Josh Mahura would draw in on the third pairing.
