Daccord (lower body) is not expected to play Thursday versus the Avalanche.
Head coach Lane Lambert hinted that Victor Ostman would start, and that makes it likely Daccord will not be in uniform since Ostman is up with the big club under emergency conditions. Daccord will end the season at 20-20-6 with a 3.03 GAA and an .896 save percentage, his worst numbers in three years as a starter for the Kraken.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Not suiting up Monday
Rotowire
Daccord (lower body) is unavailable for Monday's home matchup versus the Kings, according to Sound of Hockey.
Philipp Grubauer (lower body) is also not an option for Monday's game, so Niklas Kokko will get the start, while Victor Ostman, who was recalled from AHL Coachella Valley on Saturday, will be the backup. It's currently unclear if Daccord will be sidelined for the rest of 2025-26. The Kraken have two more games remaining after Monday -- Wednesday in Vegas and Thursday in Colorado.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Unavailable Saturday
Rotowire
Daccord (lower body) won't be in the lineup for Saturday's home matchup against Calgary.
The Kraken recalled Victor Ostman from AHL Coachella Valley on Saturday under emergency conditions. With Philipp Grubauer (lower body) unlikely to be available, Seattle could dress Niklas Kokko and Ostman as its goalies against the Flames on Saturday.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Being evaluated
Rotowire
Daccord missed Friday's practice and is being evaluated due to an undisclosed injury, per Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network.
Benton added that Daccord was sore after stopping 32 of 35 shots en route to a 4-3 shootout win over Vegas on Thursday. The 29-year-old Daccord has a 20-20-6 record, 3.03 GAA and .896 save percentage in 47 appearances this season. Seattle might find itself without Daccord, Philipp Grubauer (lower body) and Matt Murray (personal) for Saturday's home game against Calgary. In that scenario, Niklas Kokko would probably get the start, and the Kraken would need to recall another goaltender to serve as the understudy.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Picks up shootout win
Rotowire
Daccord stopped 31 of 34 shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Golden Knights.
The Kraken rallied from two goals down in the third period. Daccord stayed strong after that, and he turned aside four of the Golden Knights' five shootout attempts to secure the win, his first since March 15 versus the Panthers. The 29-year-old's poor end to the season has taken the Kraken out of realistic playoff contention, but they did a good job to still have an impact on the race. Daccord is now 20-20-6 with a 3.03 GAA and an .896 save percentage over 47 appearances. The Kraken's next game is Saturday versus the Flames.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Guarding cage against Vegas
Rotowire
Daccord will patrol the blue paint at home versus Vegas on Thursday, Emerald City Hockey reports.
Daccord has gone six games without securing a victory, posting a 0-4-1 record, 4.04 GAA and .852 save percentage. The backstop and his teammates will need to be near perfect the rest of the way in order to secure a playoff spot, something Daccord has been unable to do thus far.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Falls short in Minnesota
Rotowire
Daccord allowed four goals on 28 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Wild.
Daccord didn't have a great performance, allowing at least four goals for the fourth time in his last five outings. He'll likely get the majority of the playing time in the absence of Philipp Grubauer (lower body), though Matt Murray could also get an appearance at some point. Daccord is down to 19-20-6 with a 3.04 GAA and an .895 save percentage over 46 appearances. The Kraken begin their last homestand Thursday versus the Golden Knights.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Starting in Minnesota
Rotowire
Daccord will start in goal on the road versus the Wild on Tuesday, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports.
Daccord could be the Kraken's primary starter down the stretch after Philipp Grubauer (lower body) was injured Monday versus the Jets. The Kraken also have Matt Murray on the roster. Daccord is winless in his last five outings, allowing 18 goals on 121 shots in that span, so he is a risky option in this tough matchup.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Makes relief appearance Monday
Rotowire
Daccord turned aside 10 of 12 shots after taking over the crease from Philipp Grubauer (lower body) midway through the second period of Monday's 6-2 loss to the Jets.
The loss went on Grubauer's ledger, but the two third-period tallies allowed by Daccord squelched any chance the Kraken had of mounting a comeback. Seattle is all but eliminated from the playoffs, but Daccord figures to see a heavy workload over the team's final games if Grubauer misses time, with Matt Murray as his backup.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Struggles in loss to Mammoth
Rotowire
Daccord allowed six goals on 31 shots in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Mammoth.
The Kraken jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period, but the Mammoth got one goal back in that frame, then scored twice in the second and thrice in the third to run away with the game. This was a tough loss for Daccord and the Kraken, as it makes their path to the playoffs all that much harder. He's allowed 16 goals while going 0-3-1 over his last four outings, and he's down to 19-19-6 with a 3.00 GAA and an .897 save percentage over 44 appearances this season. Philipp Grubauer is likely to get the nod Saturday versus the Blackhawks after Daccord's poor showing Thursday.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Set to start Thursday
Rotowire
Daccord is expected to guard the home goal versus the Mammoth on Thursday, Joe Pohoryles of Emerald City Spectrum reports.
Daccord has been on the bench for the last three games after a 1-5-1 stretch. However, Philipp Grubauer hasn't been able to generate many wins either, so Daccord will get another chance in a critical matchup for the Kraken's facing playoff hopes. The Mammoth have scored 21 goals over their last six games, though they've won only three of those contests.

Rotowire
Daccord turned aside 21 of 24 shots in regulation and overtime and two of three shootout attempts during Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Panthers.
Florida's fourth goal in regulation deflected in off the stick of Shane Wright, who was attempting to block a centering pass by Noah Gregor. Daccord has just one win in his last seven outings, going 1-5-1 during that stretch with a 3.94 GAA and .862 save percentage.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Slated to start in South Florida
Rotowire
Daccord is expected to start on the road against the Panthers on Tuesday, Sound of Hockey reports.
Daccord has lost back-to-back games and five of his last six -- he's surrendered 21 goals on 157 shots (.866 save percentage) during that time. The 29-year-old netminder is 19-18-5 with a 2.90 GAA and a .901 save percentage through 42 appearances in 2025-26. Daccord turned aside 23 of 25 shots against the Panthers in a 6-2 win March 15.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Beaten four times in loss
Rotowire
Daccord stopped 23 of 27 shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Blue Jackets. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Daccord has been struggling lately and has dropped five of his last six outings. He has gone 3-6-0 since the Olympic break, but he has surrendered four or more goals just three times in those contests. On the season, the 29-year-old owns a 2.90 GAA and a .901 save percentage across 42 appearances. He's done a solid job and seems to have reclaimed the No. 1 goaltender role for the Krakne.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Beaten twice in loss
Rotowire
Daccord stopped 24 of 26 shots in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Predators. The third goal was an empty-netter.
Daccord was beaten once in the first period and once more in the second. By the time the Predators closed out the scoring with Filip Forsberg's third goal, Daccord was already on the bench as Seattle was pushing forward for a late equalizer with an extra attacker. Daccord has posted a save percentage of at least .920 in his last two appearances, and he should continue to have a slight edge in terms of playing time over Philipp Grubauer.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Guarding goal Thursday
Rotowire
Daccord will start in goal on the road versus the Predators on Thursday, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.
Daccord snapped a three-game losing streak with a 23-save effort against the Panthers in a 6-2 win Sunday. During his slump, he was in goal for a loss to the Predators in which he gave up three goals on 26 shots. This will be Daccord's fifth start in the Kraken's last seven games, so it looks like he has a slight edge for playing time over Philipp Grubauer.

Kraken's Joey Daccord: Bounces back with win
Rotowire
Daccord stopped 23 of 25 shots in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Panthers.
Daccord was a little better than that stat line suggests -- the Panthers' second goal came just before the final buzzer. The Kraken never trailed in the game, allowing Daccord to break out of a three-game skid in which he allowed 13 goals on 78 shots. The 29-year-old netminder improved to 19-16-5 with a 2.89 GAA and a .901 save percentage over 40 appearances. With both Daccord and Philipp Grubauer coming off wins, it's not clear which goalie will get the nod for Tuesday's tough home matchup versus the Lightning.
