      Philipp Grubauer will start Monday in Montreal.

      Grubauer did not play in Seattle's 2-0 loss to the Ottawa Senators on Saturday but will return to the crease on Monday as he searches for his first victory in his last three appearances. Grubauer has an ugly 3.37 GAA and .882 SV% through 14 games (5-7-1) and ranks among the worst in the league with only three quality starts (.214 QS %). A win is likely for Grubauer on Monday as the Kraken are -152 road favourites, but don't expect much else from him, even against the low-scoring Montreal Canadiens (2.75 GF / GP), as he has a sub-.895 SV% in his last eight contests (3-3-1).

      McCormick will make his season debut after being recalled from Coachella Valley Firebirds of the AHL on Friday.

      Andre Burakovsky (upper body) returned to full contact in practice on Monday.

      Burakovsky participated in his first full practice on Monday after not playing since October 21st. Burakovsky had two points (0G / 2A) in six games before suffering an upper-body injury and will be a huge boost for a Seattle Kraken offence that ranks fourth-worst in the league (2.68 GF / GP).

      Poturalski will return to the Coachella Valley Firebirds of the AHL where he has seven points (2G / 5A) in 11 games this season. Poturalski played two games with the Kraken and was held without the point, averaging 6:53 time-on-ice. The Kraken recalled Max McCormick in a corresponding move.

      Grubauer led the Kraken onto the ice for warmups.

      Grubauer will likely start again on Thursday after allowing four goals on 23 shots (.826 SV%) in Seattle's 4-3 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday. Grubauer has been unreliable this season, posting a 3.42 GAA and .881 SV% through 13 games (5-7-0). In addition, Grubauer only has three quality starts this season and has recorded a sub-.890 SV% in each of his last seven appearances (3-3-0). The Kraken are +154 road underdogs against a Toronto Maple Leafs team that has won five of their last seven (5-1-1) and ranks in the top half of the league offensively (3.30 GF / GP).

      Jaden Schwatz (lower body) has been placed on the Injured Reserve and is week-to-week.

      Schwartz played only 9:33 time-on-ice in Seattle's 4-3 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday before leaving the game with a lower-body injury and has not been placed on injured reserve and is expected out around six weeks. Before his injury, Schwartz was in the midst of a cold streak, scoring only one point (0G / 1A) and registering a -5 plus/minus in his last eight games.

      Philipp Grubauer will start Tuesday in Chicago.

      Grubauer will make his return to the crease for the Kraken on Tuesday after being sidelined with an undisclosed injury for their past two games. Before his injury, Grubauer had three wins in his last five appearances (3-1-0) but still managed only a .845 SV%. Grubauer has only three quality starts in 12 games this season (.250 QS%), a trend that makes him difficult to be relied upon in most fantasy formats. That said, he should be able to add to his win totals on Tuesday as the Kraken are -185 road favourites against a Chicago Blackhawks team that has lost six of their last seven (1-6-0).

      Andrew Poturalski will make his Seattle debut Tuesday in Chicago.

      Poturalski has four NHL games to his name since the 2016-17 season, scoring two points (2G / 0A), but the 29-year-old is a known AHL commodity who will make his Kraken debut on Tuesday. In his past two seasons with the Coachella Valley Firebirds of the AHL, Poturalski has 49 points (13G / 36A) in 49 games.

      Brandon Tanev (lower body) is out Tuesday vs. Chicago and considered day-to-day.

      Tanev played just 3:37 TOI before leaving Friday's loss to the Canucks and will not play on Tuesday but does not expect to be out long-term. Tye Kartye moved up to the second line with Tanev out and the Kraken recalled Marian Studenic from the AHL on Tuesday morning.

      Philipp Grubauer (undisclosed) returned to practice Saturday and will travel on the team's upcoming road trip.

      Chris Dreidger was reassigned to Coachella Valley (AHL) and Grubauer was a full participant in practice Saturday so the 32-year-old net minder is expected to be good to go fro Seattle's next game. He has struggled mightily for a third-straight season with his 5-6-0 record, 3.36 GAA and .885 SV%.
