Larsson (illness) is slated to play versus the Senators on Saturday, per the NHL media site.

Larsson was one of three players named who were battling an illness, but the defenseman is poised to play through any lingering issues. He's missed just one game in his five seasons with the Kraken. The defenseman will be paired with Vince Dunn as usual for Saturday's game.

Rakell had a goal and an assist in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Flyers.

The goal was Rakell's 12th goal of the season. He has 27 points in 41 games this season, and he'll be expected to carry a lot with Sidney Crosby (lower body) out and Evgeni Malkin serving the first game of a five-game suspension. Rakell is more of a passenger than a driver, so his game could shrink in the short term.

Lindgren (illness) won't play Saturday versus the Senators.

The Kraken have a bug going around the locker room, and it'll cost Lindgren a game. One of Josh Mahura or Cale Fleury will check into the lineup for Lindgren in this contest. Lindgren will have until Tuesday to get healthy before the Kraken host the Predators.

Gaudreau (illness) isn't expected to play Saturday versus Ottawa.

Gaudreau has four goals and 18 points in 48 appearances this season. Ryan Winterton will probably draw into the lineup as a result of Gaudreau's absence. The 32-year-old Gaudreau might be able to return Tuesday versus Nashville.
