Seattle activated Ryan Lindgren from injured reserve and made roster moves involving Cale Fleury, Logan Morrison and Jagger Firkus.
The Story
The Seattle Kraken have activated defenceman Ryan Lindgren from injured reserve.
Lindgren had missed the team’s previous 13 games with an upper-body injury, and was placed on injured reserve a couple of days after the injury occurred.
Based on the pairings from Friday’s practice, Lindgren was working on the bottom pair alongside Cale Fleury and was also set to be used on the top penalty-kill unit.
Lindgren had been scoreless in the four games he played earlier this season.
Cale Fleury will also return to the lineup after being a healthy scratch for the previous three games. He recorded one assist in six games this season.
To make room for Lindgren on the NHL roster, Seattle reassigned centre Logan Morrison to the Coachella Valley Firebirds, the club’s minor-league affiliate. Morrison had been called up on November 8 and did not play in his only NHL game appearance on Thursday. He has three goals and seven assists for 10 points in 12 games with the Firebirds this season, and has not played in an NHL game since the 2023-24 season.
In additional lineup news, Jagger Firkus is set for his NHL debut. The Kraken selected him in the second round in 2022; he spent two additional seasons in the OHL after being drafted, and then played two pro seasons in the AHL before this season.
Firkus has four goals and eight assists for 12 points in 12 games with the Firebirds this season.
