Pierre-Edouard Bellemare Out 4-6 Weeks

Seattle Kraken forward Pierre-Edouard Bellemare (lower body) has been ruled out for 4-6 weeks.

Shane Wright Called Up To Kraken

Seattle Kraken forward prospect Shane Wright has been recalled from Coachella Valley (AHL). Wright collected 16 points (nine goals, seven assists) in 18 games with Coachella Valley.

Tomas Tatar Trade To Kraken

The Seattle Kraken have acquired winger Tomas Tatar from the Colorado Avalanche in exchange for a 2024 fifth-round draft pick.
