Geoff Baker: Brandon Tanev's return should help, but entire Kraken team must up aggressiveness The expected return of Brandon Tanev should help jumpstart one of his Kraken team's more glaring deficiencies.
Brandon Tanev - Removed from IR Tanev (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Monday, per the NHL media site.
Impact Tanev appears to be good to go for Monday's matchup against Colorado. He is projected to play alongside Jared McCann and Alexander Wennberg in his first game action since Opening Night. Tanev registered 16 goals, 35 points, 115 shots on net and 190 hits in 82 contests last season.

Jordan Eberle - Won't return Monday Eberle (leg) will remain unavailable against the Avalanche on Monday, Alison Lukan of Root Sports reports.
Impact Eberle will be out of action for his third consecutive contest due to his leg injury. The club hasn't provided a clear recovery timeline, so at this point, fantasy players should probably just consider the veteran winger out indefinitely. Before getting hurt, Eberle was stuck in a six-game goal drought and has managed just one tally in 13 appearances this season.

Eeli Tolvanen - Gathers power-play assist Tolvanen posted a power-play assist in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers.
Impact Tolvanen is on a four-game point streak, recording two goals and three assists in that span. The winger is up to nine points (three on the power play), 27 shots on net, 29 hits, 17 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 15 contests this season. He continues to fit well on the Kraken's third line, providing solid two-way play.
NOVEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Vince Dunn - Assist, fight in loss Dunn logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal, two hits and a fighting major in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers.
Impact Dunn helped out on Jaden Schwartz's third-period tally, then fought Dylan Holloway later in the frame. The 27-year-old Dunn has taken a trip to the penalty box in three straight games, showing some aggression during the Kraken's frustrating first month of the season. He's also been productive on offense, racking up 13 points (seven on the power play), 28 shots on net, 17 PIM, 14 hits, 11 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 15 appearances overall.
NOVEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jaden Schwartz - Prevents shutout Saturday Schwartz scored a power-play goal on two shots, added three hits and logged two PIM in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers.
Impact Schwartz scored for the fourth straight game, and he's earned a point in nine straight contests (six tallies, six assists). The winger's third-period marker prevented Stuart Skinner from shutting out the Kraken. Schwartz has been arguably Seattle's best forward this season with eight goals, six helpers, 41 shots on net, 14 hits, six PIM and a minus-4 rating over 15 games.

Joey Daccord - Steady in relief appearance Daccord stopped all nine shots he faced in relief of Philipp Grubauer in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers.
Impact The Oilers dominated the first period and then backed off once Daccord was in the game. The 27-year-old remains at 2-1-3 with a 2.59 GAA and a .913 save percentage through seven appearances. The Kraken have rematches against their last two opponents up next -- they host the Avalanche on Monday before visiting the Oilers on Wednesday. Based on recent performances against each team, it wouldn't be surprising for Grubauer to start Monday and Daccord to get Wednesday's game.
NOVEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Philipp Grubauer - Chased from Saturday's loss Grubauer gave up four goals on 17 shots in the first period of Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers.
Impact Grubauer didn't get much help from his defense, as the Oilers set the tone early. Joey Daccord stopped all nine shots he faced over the final two periods in relief of Grubauer, who dropped to 3-6-0 on the year. Grubauer has added a 3.37 GAA and an .891 save percentage through nine starts. He's generally struggled versus Edmonton and excelled against Colorado, so it's possible Grubauer may face the Avalanche on Monday before ceding the crease to Daccord for Wednesday's rematch with the Oilers.
