Tanev (illness) is set to play Saturday versus LA, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev missed Thursday's 2-1 loss to Winnipeg. He has eight goals, 15 points, 96 hits and 73 blocks in 44 appearances in 2024-25. Tye Kartye is expected to be a healthy scratch due to Tanev's return.

Tanev (illness) will be a game-time decision versus Los Angeles on Saturday, Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev participated in Saturday's morning skate after missing Thursday's game against the Jets. The 33-year-old is in the final season of a six-year, $21 million contract he signed with Pittsburgh in July of 2019. Tanev has eight goals, seven assists, 96 hits and 75 blocked shots across 44 games this campaign. If Tanev is good to return, Tye Kartye will be scratched.

Tanev (illness) won't play Thursday versus the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev logged 13:14 of ice time versus the Penguins on Tuesday, so his illness is a fairly new development. It's unclear if he'll be healthy enough to play at home Saturday against the Kings. Tye Kartye will replace Tanev in the lineup Thursday.

Tanev scored an empty-net goal on two shots and added two hits in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

The Kraken scored the last six goals of the contest, with Tanev putting the cherry on top with his empty-netter. This goal was his first since Dec. 8, and he snapped a 10-game point drought in the process. The 33-year-old winger often isn't very productive on offense while playing in a bottom-six role. For the season, he's chipped in with eight goals, 15 points, 67 shots on net, 90 hits, 72 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating over 42 appearances. He's one point shy of matching his total from 2023-24, when he logged 66 games played, and he's on pace to reach the 20-point mark for just the fourth time in his career.

Tanev (undisclosed) will play Saturday versus Vancouver, per Tim Booth of the Seattle Times.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev missed Sunday's 5-2 loss to Colorado due to the injury. He has seven goals, 14 points, 59 PIM, 79 hits and 57 blocks in 35 appearances in 2024-25. Tanev is projected to serve on the fourth line in his return.

Tanev wasn't in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Avalanche due to an apparent injury, Emerald City Hockey reports.

EDGE Analysis

While head coach Dan Bylsma didn't specify that Tanev is dealing with an issue, he said before Sunday's matchup that some players would be game-time decisions due to injuries, and the 32-year-old was excluded from the lineup. It's not yet clear what issue Tanev is dealing with, but he'll have some time to recover before the Kraken face the Canucks on Saturday.

Tanev notched an assist, two shots on goal, three hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev has earned a point in six of the last nine games, collecting two goals and four assists in that span. The 32-year-old winger set up Jared McCann's empty-netter to seal this win. Tanev's strong play has helped him get into a top-six role at even strength, though he's not in the power-play mix. He has 14 points, 52 shots on net, 68 hits, 51 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 31 appearances. Considering he had just 16 points in 66 outings in 2023-24, Tanev looks poised for a bounce-back campaign.

Tanev scored his seventh goal of the season Sunday in a 7-5 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev jumpstarted Seattle's comeback effort when he cut New York's lead to 3-2 at 14:06 of the second period. The left-shot winger added two shots, one block and four hits in 13:49 of ice time. Tanev has provided solid depth production for the Kraken recently, as he's found the scoresheet in five of his last seven contests. The 32-year-old is occupying a bottom-six role and a spot on the penalty kill, and through 29 games, Tanev has accumulated seven goals and 13 points.

Tanev notched an assist and five hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev set up Jaden Schwartz on an empty-netter. This was Tanev's 500th career game, and he now has 170 points (80 goals, 90 assists) at the NHL level. The physical winger has earned a point in four of the last five games and is up to 12 points, 47 shots on net, 55 hits, 40 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 27 appearances this season, and his strong play of late has earned him a look in a top-six role.

Tanev scored a goal with his lone shot in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes. He also added two hits and three blocked shots.

EDGE Analysis

Tanev found twine for the first time since Nov. 14, when he scored in a 3-1 win over the Blackhawks. The 32-year-old winger has been trending in the right direction after going pointless in four games between Nov. 17 and Nov. 25, and he's now recorded one goal and two assists in his last four appearances. Tanev is up to 11 points across 26 games, and he remains on pace to reach the 30-point plateau, something he's achieved just once in his 10-year career.
