Status report
McCann, a forward, will be out three weeks with a lower body injury, the Kraken announced on Friday. When asked about the lineup, coach Lane Lambert said, "We've got some guys that are sick, so we've got options. You may see seven defensemen and 11 forwards. We'll see what happens." … Maatta will return to the lineup after missing 12 games with an upper body injury... Yamamoto replaces Tanev, a forward, in the lineup. ... The Mammoth recalled Rooney, a forward, from Tucson of the American Hockey League on Thursday and reassigned defenseman Maverik Lamoureux there.
