Scores in Monday's loss McCann scored a goal in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Canadiens.

Impact McCann is in a hot stretch with five goals and two assists over his last seven contests. The 27-year-old forward was moved off of the top line to a trio with Alexander Wennberg and Brandon Tanev in Monday's contest as head coach Dave Hakstol tries to spark the Kraken's offense amid a five-game losing streak. McCann has played well regardless of his placement in the lineup, racking up 12 goals, five assists, 75 shots on net and a minus-10 rating through 26 outings.

More games, more goals McCann scored two goals Thursday in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact McCann has six points, including four goals, in his last five games. Hockey pundits were shocked by his opportunistic 40 goals last season, but McCann is currently on a 38-goal pace. Maybe all he needed was real opportunity from a coach that trusted him to deliver. And deliver he has. McCann has 11 goals and five assists in 24 games this season. Four of his goals have come on the power play.

The helper was McCann's fourth point over the last four games -- he seems to have steadied his play after a tough early half of the month. The 27-year-old is up to nine goals, five assists, 63 shots on net, 15 PIM and a minus-10 rating through 23 appearances.

Leads Kraken past Lightning McCann collected a goal and an assist in a 4-3 overtime win over Tampa Bay on Monday.

Impact McCann's marker was scored on the power play during overtime, making it his second game-winner of the campaign. He's up to five goals and seven points in 10 appearances this year. McCann had 40 goals last year, but there were questions if he could repeat that feat. His success in 2022-23 relied on his 19.0 shooting percentage, which was a significant jump from his previous career high of 15.3. By contrast, the 27-year-old has a 15.2 shooting percentage this campaign, and his success is linked to him firing the puck a lot more -- an average of 3.30 shots per game, up from 2.66 last year. If he can continue to be that aggressive with the puck, then McCann should have another big offensive season.

Scores in loss McCann scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Panthers.

Impact A recent drop to the third line hasn't nullified McCann's effectiveness as arguably the Kraken's best shooter. The 27-year-old has three points over his last three contests, giving him four goals and a helper through nine outings this season. He's added 27 shots on net, nine PIM and a minus-5 rating. With Andre Burakovsky (upper body) likely out until at least December, McCann may stick with Yanni Gourde and Eeli Tolvanen for a while.

Goal, assist in win McCann tallied a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime victory over the Red Wings.

Impact McCann tied the game with a power-play goal 18:38 into the third period, beating Ville Husso with a wrist shot from the circle, before adding an assist on Jordan Eberle's game-winning tally with just five seconds to go in overtime. It's the first multi-point contest of the season for the 27-year-old McCann. He now has three goals and an assist through seven appearances to start the campaign after posting a career-best 70 points (40 goals, 30 assists) in 79 games last season.

Buries goal in win McCann scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact McCann hadn't gotten on the scoresheet since his goal Opening Night versus Vegas. The winger snapped the short slump with a third-period tally that stood as the game-winner. He has two goals, 16 shots on net, four PIM and a minus-5 rating through five appearances. With Jaden Schwartz (undisclosed) exiting Thursday's contest, McCann was moved off the top line in favor of Tye Kartye later in the game, which could be a move that sticks heading into Saturday's tilt with the Rangers.

Tallies lone goal in loss McCann scored a goal on five shots, added two PIM and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact McCann broke up Adin Hill's shutout bid with his second-period goal. It's a positive start to the year for McCann, who led the Kraken with 40 tallies last year, albeit while shooting 19.0 percent. The 27-year-old forward was once again on a line with Matty Beniers and Jordan Eberle, but with Andre Burakovsky back in action, head coach Dave Hakstol may be more willing to mix up his top six if the Kraken struggle in October. In any case, McCann should still be counted on for offense and power-play time.

Impact McCann has a goal and an assist over three games since he returned from a six-game absence.

Scores first playoff goal McCann scored in his second game back from injury. It wasn't enough, however, as the Kraken lost to the Stars 5-2 on Thursday.

Impact Though he scored 40 this season and has played 18 postseason games in his career, this was his first-ever playoff goal. Even more significant than the goal, however, was his deployment. In his first game back from injury, McCann played limited minutes in a depth role. On Thursday, he was moved up the lineup and looked more comfortable in an important role on the team, logging 17:33 of ice time with 1:47 of it coming on the power play.

Impact Coach Dave Hakstol wouldn't go so far as to confirm McCann would be in the lineup versus the Stars but the center appears to be trending in the right direction. Prior to his absence, the 26-year-old Ontario native was mired in a six-game goal drought dating back to April 10 versus Arizona.

Looks good to go McCann (undisclosed) took line rushes during warmups, suggesting he is good to go for Tuesday's Game 4 versus the Stars, per Sound of Hockey.

Impact McCann was on the fourth line in warmups, skating alongside Ryan Donato and Brandon Tanev. It's possible McCann's minutes are limited early in the contest as he makes his return from a six-game absence. With Tye Kartye in McCann's usual spot on the top line, there's a decent chance those two forward lines could be fluid throughout this contest.
