Ales Stezka - Returns to AHLStezka was moved to AHL Coachella Valley on Saturday.

ImpactStezka served as the backup goaltender in Seattle's 4-3 overtime win over Vegas on Friday because Philipp Grubauer was unavailable due to an undisclosed injury he suffered during an accident at home. The Kraken aren't scheduled to play again until Tuesday's tilt against Columbus, so Stezka can still be recalled before that date if it turns out Grubauer needs to miss additional time. The 27-year-old Stezka has a 3.61 GAA and an .881 save percentage in six outings with Coachella Valley this season.

Ivan Barbashev - Bags apple in overtime lossBarbashev logged an assist, three shots on goal and three hits in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Kraken.

ImpactBarbashev's offense has come back to life with four assists over his last two games. He's gone six contests without a goal, but it appears his spot on the top line remains secure. The 28-year-old winger is up to seven goals, nine helpers, 27 shots on net, 28 hits, nine blocked shots and a plus-8 rating over 14 appearances. Barbashev is a power winger playing in a fantastic spot, so he should be rostered in most fantasy formats.

Shea Theodore - Records assist on equalizerTheodore notched an assist and three shots on goal in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Kraken.

ImpactTheodore helped out on an Alex Pietrangelo tally in the third period, which forced overtime. The 29-year-old Theodore has collected four assists over his last six games, but this was the first time he's gotten on the scoresheet in consecutive contests since the first two games of the year. The defenseman is at 11 points, 24 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 13 appearances in a top-four role this season.

Jack Eichel - Distributes three helpersEichel registered three assists and three shots on goal in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Kraken.

ImpactEichel had a hand in all of the Golden Knights' goals Friday, and it's impressive he did that without regular linemate Mark Stone (lower body). This was Eichel's second three-point effort in a row. The center is up to four goals, 18 assists, 36 shots on net, 10 blocked sots and a plus-10 rating over 14 appearances. He continues to be one of the top centers in the league early in 2024-25.

Pavel Dorofeyev - Tallies on power playDorofeyev scored a power-play goal on three shots and went minus-2 in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Kraken.

ImpactDorofeyev opened the scoring in the middle of the first period with his fourth goal over the last four contests. The 24-year-old has yet to get on the scoresheet in more than two consecutive games, but he's also avoided any droughts longer than that. The winger is up to eight goals, three assists, 40 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 14 appearances in a second-line role. Half of his tallies have come on the power play.
