Kral (leg) is set to play in Thursday's preseason game against Columbus, the team announced Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Kral missed some exhibition action after being injured Sept. 24 during a preseason game against Buffalo. He'll probably start the 2024-25 campaign in the minors, but there's a chance he'll get promoted during the season. He had five goals and 37 points in 46 appearances with the Pelicans in Finland's top league in 2023-24.
