The 32-year-old started the Kraken's last game against his former team, the Colorado Avalanche. The Kraken lost that contest, marking their fourth consecutive loss.
The Kraken will be calling up a goaltender from the Coachella Valley Firebirds to back up Joey Daccord against the Vegas Golden Knights. The two goaltenders on the Firebirds are Ales Stezka and Niklas Kokko. Stezka will likely be the goaltender called up due to his age and experience.
