Schultz posted a power-play assist in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Schultz snapped a four-game point drought with the helper. The veteran defenseman posted 26 points (10 on the power play), 100 shots on net, 68 blocked shots and a minus-23 rating over 70 appearances this season. He is the lone pending unrestricted free agent among the Kraken's blueliners, and there's a decent chance he won't be brought back as the team begins to integrate more prospects in 2024-25.

Schultz scored a goal on five shots, added a power-play assist, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Schultz has five points over his last five outings. The 33-year-old defenseman has struggled to put up steady offense for much of the season outside of the last couple of weeks. He's up to seven goals, 25 points, 93 shots on net, 65 blocked shots and a minus-19 rating over 65 appearances. Schultz's place in the lineup is likely safe as long as Vince Dunn (upper body) remains out.

Schultz (personal) will be in the lineup Tuesday versus the Islanders, Alison Lukan of Root Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Schultz sat out a second game despite rejoining the Kraken at Monday's morning skate. With Brian Dumoulin (lower body) out, Schultz will get back into action Tuesday, skating on the third pairing. It's unclear if Schultz will see much power-play time given Ryker Evans' presence in the lineup.
