Kraken's Matty Beniers: Two helpers in preseason win
Beniers logged two assists and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-3 preseason shootout win over the Flames.
Beniers is poised to enter the season as the Kraken's top-line center once again. He reached the 50-point mark for the second time in four full seasons last year, but he's more of a steady two-way center rather than a true do-it-all leader. Beniers has some appeal in fantasy, particularly in formats that count blocked shots -- he had 69 of those last year, which is a good total for a forward.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Nabs shootout win
Grubauer stopped 32 of 35 shots in Thursday's 4-3 preseason shootout win over the Flames.
Grubauer has done well this preseason, stopping 47 of 51 shots over two games. The 34-year-old isn't eligible to play Saturday against the Canucks due to limitations on veterans in the preseason, so his next start will come in the regular season. The Kraken have a back-to-back over the first weekend of the campaign, so Grubauer won't have to wait long to get back between the pipes.

Kraken's Jake O'Brien: Won't play Thursday
O'Brien (lower body) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's preseason game against Calgary, per Sound of Hockey.
O'Brien had 28 goals and 93 points in 53 regular-season appearances with OHL Brantford in 2025-26. Seattle's final preseason game will be played in Vancouver on Saturday. O'Brien isn't likely to make the Kraken's Opening Night roster if he's healthy, but the 19-year-old is a highly regarded prospect.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Getting start Thursday
Grubauer will protect the home goal Thursday in a preseason game versus the Flames, per Sound of Hockey.
Grubauer stopped 15 of 16 shots against the Flames over two periods in his start Sunday. The 34-year-old netminder will make his last appearance of the preseason in this contest. Grubauer is set to open the year as Joey Daccord's backup, though the two could operate more as a tandem if one doesn't pull away from the other in terms of performance.

Kraken's Jake O'Brien: Deemed day-to-day
O'Brien (lower body) will not practice Tuesday and is considered day-to-day.
After a strong performance to open the 2026-27 preseason by recording a pair of points, O'Brien will stay in street clothes during Tuesday's practice. The 19-year-old center was incredibly effective with OHL Brandford last season, where he posted 28 goals and 93 points across 53 regular-season outings. While he's on the fringe of making Seattle's Opening Night roster, he holds a high ceiling and will continue to battle for a spot in the Kraken's forward core.

Kraken's Victor Ostman: Lands on waivers
Ostman was put on waivers Monday for the purpose of being sent to AHL Coachella Valley.
Ostman made one NHL appearance with Seattle in the 2025-26 campaign, stopping 33 of 35 shots in a 2-0 loss to Colorado on April 16. He spent most of the 2025-26 regular season in the minors, posting a 17-15-3 record with a 2.81 GAA and a .906 save percentage in 36 outings for the Firebirds.

Kraken's Logan Morrison: Waived by club
Morrison was designated for waivers by the Kraken on Monday.
Morrison hasn't played in an NHL game since 2023-24, when he logged four games for the Kraken. The 24-year-old center put up big numbers last year, generating 29 goals and 32 assists in 68 regular-season tilts with the Firebirds. Still, it wasn't enough to earn him a call-up to the big club. If he does play in any NHL games this year, it will likely be due to injury.

Kraken's John Hayden: Waived for AHL demotion
Hayden was placed on waivers Monday for the purpose of being reassigned to AHL Coachella Valley.
Hayden notched 13 goals and 11 assists in 67 minor-league appearances for the Firebirds during the 2025-26 regular season. The 31-year-old forward didn't post a point in three NHL outings with Seattle last October.

Kraken's JR Avon: Lands on waivers
Avon was placed on waivers for the purpose of reassignment Monday.
Avon has yet to appear in an NHL game, spending the last three seasons in the AHL. Undrafted out of the OHL, the 23-year-old center notched 10 goals and 14 assists in 45 regular-season contests for AHL Coachella Valley before adding eight points in 12 playoff games.

Kraken's JR Avon: Productive in Sunday's preseason game
Avon registered a shorthanded empty-net goal and two power-play assists in Sunday's 4-2 preseason win over the Flames.
Avon had his best AHL season in 2025-26 -- he delivered 10 goals and 24 points over 45 regular-season contests with Coachella Valley. The undrafted forward has yet to make his NHL debut, and while Sunday's performance is encouraging, Avon doesn't need to be on fantasy managers' radars at this time.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Solid performance in preseason action
Grubauer turned aside 15 of 16 shots in Sunday's 4-2 preseason win over the Flames.
Grubauer played the first two periods of Sunday's game before giving way to Nikke Kokko in the third. The 34-year-old Grubauer posted relatively solid numbers in 2025-26 (2.65 GAA, .909 save percentage), but unless the Kraken take a step forward this year, wins may be difficult to come by for Grubauer.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: In goal Sunday
Grubauer will guard the road goal against Calgary on Sunday in preseason action, Bob Condor of the Kraken's official site reports.
Grubauer will play the first two periods, and Nikke Kokko will enter the contest in the third frame. The 34-year-old Grubauer went 13-12-4 with a 2.65 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 32 regular-season appearances for Seattle in 2025-26. He will likely compete for starts with Joey Daccord in the 2026-27 campaign.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Perfect across two frames Saturday
Daccord turned aside all 14 shots he faced during Saturday's 4-2 preseason win over the Canucks.
Daccord drew the start during Saturday's preseason opener and played two periods before being replaced by Nikke Kokko. Daccord was perfect before being pulled, strengthening his case for the No. 1 goaltending job once the regular season gets underway, though he could split time with Philipp Grubauer. Daccord went 20-20-6 with a 3.03 GAA and .896 save percentage across 47 regular-season appearances with Seattle last year.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Tending twine in preseason opener
Daccord will protect the home goal in Saturday's preseason game versus the Canucks, Canucks play-by-play announcer Brendan Batchelor reports.
Daccord will get the first chance to tend the twine for the Kraken this preseason. The 30-year-old heads into the campaign as the presumptive No. 1, though he may share the crease with Philipp Grubauer at times. Daccord went 20-20-6 with a 3.03 GAA and an .896 save percentage over 47 appearances in 2025-26.

Kraken's Oscar Fisker Molgaard: Works on strength in offseason
Fisker Molgaard told reporters Friday he primarily worked on building strength and size in the offseason.
Fisker Molgaard is a long shot to make the Kraken's roster, but that could change with an impressive camp. He produced 34 points in 49 regular-season outings for AHL Coachella Valley last year, and he also racked up two assists in his first 13 NHL games. The 21-year-old likely needs a bit more time in the AHL before getting a chance to be a full-time option for Seattle.

Kraken's Jake O'Brien: Won't play in prospect showcase
The Kraken announced Friday that O'Brien won't play in the upcoming prospect showcase due to precautionary reasons.
It seems unlikely that O'Brien's availability for the start of training camp or the beginning of the 2026-27 regular season will be impacted by his absence from the prospect showcase, but the Kraken will elect to play it safe with one of their most promising young players. The 19-year-old hasn't yet made his NHL debut, but he recorded 28 goals, 65 assists and 28 PIM across 53 regular-season appearances with OHL Brandford last year.

Kraken's Lukas Dragicevic: Sitting out showcase
Dragicevic will not play in the Kraken's upcoming rookie showcase, the team announced Friday.
Dragicevic was not going to make the team coming out of training camp, so his absence from the rookie showcase for precautionary reasons won't impact the majority of fantasy managers. The 21-year-old center is expected to once again play the bulk of his minutes with AHL Coachella Valley.

Kraken's Shane Wright: Turns focus to upcoming season
Wright is fully focused on the Kraken after his trade request didn't lead to a change of scenery this offseason, Josh Frojelin of Emerald City Spectrum reports Friday.
Wright's agent, Kurt Overhardt, told Frojelin that the center is fully committed to Seattle and that is where his focus is heading into the season. That doesn't necessarily rule out a trade in the future. Wright's development with the Kraken has been slow, and he's unlikely to begin the year higher than the third line. The Kraken will wait for a fair price, so this situation appears set to linger into the season, though the team may try to showcase Wright in a larger role to boost his value early in the campaign.

Kraken's Jacob Melanson: Inks three-year deal
Melanson signed a three-year, $4.35 million contract with the Kraken on Friday.
Melanson was a restricted free agent this offseason, and he'll be available for the start of training camp after reaching a new contract. After making just one NHL regular-season appearance in the 2024-25 campaign, Melanson played in 36 regular-season games with Seattle last year. In 2025-26 at the NHL level, he recorded two goals, three assists, 189 hits, 32 PIM and 13 blocked shots while averaging 9:22 of ice time per game.

Kraken's Ville Ottavainen: Inks one-year deal
Ottavainen signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Kraken on Friday.
Ottavainen had three goals, 17 points and 71 PIM in 53 regular-season outings with AHL Coachella Valley in 2025-26. He didn't play in the NHL last season, but he did register an assist in one regular-season appearance with Seattle in 2024-25. Ottavainen will probably open the upcoming campaign in the minors.
