Match Preview and Status Report
Bobby McMann will be making his debut with the Kraken’s top line following his recent trade from the Toronto Maple Leafs on March 6. He missed the previous three games awaiting his work visa. The Kraken arrived in Vancouver on Saturday morning after weather-related travel delays.
For the Canucks, forward Nils Hoglander will be a healthy scratch for the second consecutive game. This matchup promises to be a competitive encounter between two teams with very different current standings.
