Seattle Kraken Lose Key Forward McCann to Injury, Welcome Back Montour

SEATTLE, WA – The Seattle Kraken will be without one of their top offensive players for the foreseeable future, as forward Jared McCann has been placed on injured reserve with a lower-body injury, the team announced Saturday.

McCann, 29, is a vital part of the Kraken’s forward lineup, consistently providing scoring punch and veteran leadership. He recorded 29 goals in 2023-24 and 20 goals last season. In just five games this season, McCann has already tallied three goals and four points. The team did not specify the timeline for his return.

In brighter news for the Kraken, veteran defenseman Brandon Montour, 31, has returned to the lineup. Montour, who joined the team last season after helping the Florida Panthers to the 2024 Stanley Cup Final, has been a key contributor on the blue line, posting four points in four games this season. He is expected to play tonight against the Edmonton Oilers at Climate Pledge Arena.

The Kraken are hoping Montour’s return will help offset the loss of McCann as they look to secure a victory against the Oilers.
