Status report
The Kraken did not hold a morning skate following a 5-2 loss at the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday. … Seattle recalled Meyers, a forward, from Coachella Valley of the American Hockey League and reassigned defenseman Ville Ottavainen to the AHL. … McCann, a forward, is day to day. … Montour could miss his third straight game; the defenseman took a leave absence to attend to a family matter. … Dubois, a center, skated in a noncontact jersey on Tuesday; coach Spencer Carbery said Dubois could return this weekend. … Sourdif is moving to center, and Frank will make his season debut. Milano, a forward, will be a healthy scratch.
