McCann (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

McCann is likely to miss the rest of December after being given a three-week return timeline Friday. Jacob Melanson was called up from AHL Coachella Valley to fill the spot on the Kraken's roster.

McCann is dealing with a lower-body injury that will sideline him for at least three weeks, the team announced Friday.

EDGE Analysis

McCann was just six games back from a 17-game stint on the sidelines due to a lower-body injury. It's not immediately clear if this latest problem is related, but either way, the forward is likely headed for another stint on injured reserve. When healthy, McCann has been producing offensively with five goals and three assists, including two power-play points, in 11 outings.

McCann (undisclosed) left Wednesday's game versus the Kings in obvious pain after a collision with goalie Anton Forsberg, Geoff Baker of the Kraken's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

McCann's injury status wasn't updated after the contest, but given the late timing of the incident, that should be no surprise. The 29-year-old has already dealt with a lower-body injury previously this season, and another issue in a similar area could lead to a significant absence. More information should be available based on whether he travels with the Kraken for Friday's road game versus the Mammoth. He had a power-play goal prior to his exit, giving him eight points through 11 outings this season.

McCann scored a goal in Thursday's 9-4 loss to the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

McCann has two points over three games since returning from a lower-body injury. He's at four goals, two assists, 21 shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-1 rating over eight appearances this season. McCann has seamlessly retaken a top-six role and should be in line for ample ice time at even strength and on the power play. The Kraken's weak offense isn't encouraging, but McCann should be among the team's steadiest players.

McCann notched an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

McCann logged 17:53 of ice time in Wednesday's defeat, even after taking a high stick to the mouth on his first shift. He played for the first time since missing 17 contests due to a lower-body injury. The 29-year-old should fill a sizeable role for the Kraken moving forward. He has produced five points, 16 shots on net, nine hits and a plus-2 rating over six outings this season.

McCann (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

McCann was initially labeled a game-time decision, but this roster move points toward the 29-year-old being in the lineup for the first time since Oct. 18. He should slot into a middle-six role initially, though he'll also see power-play time. McCann is typically one of the Kraken's top scorers when healthy, so fantasy managers should see how he does as he gets back up to speed.

McCann (lower body) will be a game-time call versus the Stars on Wednesday, Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

McCann has been out of action since Oct. 18 versus the Maple Leafs, a stretch of 17 games on the shelf due to his lower-body problem. If the 29-year-old winger is ready to return, he'll need to be activated off injured reserve, which will likely see Oscar Fisker Molgaard returned to AHL Coachella Valley. In limited action this year, McCann showed his offensive upside with three goals and one assist in five outings.

McCann (lower body) participated in Saturday's morning skate and is making progress, Alison Lukan of the Kraken Hockey Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

McCann will miss his 13th straight game against San Jose on Saturday, but he could accompany the Kraken on the team's upcoming four-game road trip. However, it's unclear if he will return to action during that stretch. He has produced three goals, one assist, 14 shots on net, four blocked shots and seven hits in five appearances this season.

McCann (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

McCann got off to a good start, tallying once in each of his first three games while adding one assist. However, he went scoreless in two outings before missing the last three games. He won't play against Edmonton on Saturday, but he is eligible to be activated from the IR list whenever he is healthy.

McCann (lower body) won't play Thursday versus the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

McCann will miss a third consecutive game due to the injury. The 29-year-old's next chance to play is at home versus the Oilers on Saturday. Berkly Catton continues to fill a top-line role in McCann's absence.
