Eberle (pelvis) was transferred from injured reserve to long-term injured reserve Saturday, per PuckPedia.

EDGE Analysis

This move frees up the cap space necessary to lift Vince Dunn (upper body) from long-term injured reserve, which was done in a corresponding move. Eberle's timeline won't change -- he's expected to be out until the second half of February at a minimum while recovering from a pelvic surgery.

Eberle (pelvis) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

Considering Eberle is expected to miss at least three months, this move doesn't come as a surprise. For now, the Kraken have opened up an extra roster spot. Eberle could move to long-term injured reserve to balance the team's cap once Vince Dunn (upper body) is ready to return from LTIR.

Eberle underwent a pelvic surgery Friday and will be out for at least three months.

EDGE Analysis

Eberle is a candidate for long-term injured reserve whenever the Kraken decide they need cap relief. The winger was injured Nov. 14 versus the Blackhawks. He likely won't be back prior to the 4 Nations Faceoff in February, and it's possible he's out longer than that. Andre Burakovsky has received the first opportunity on the top line with Matty Beniers and Jared McCann in Eberle's absence, but the Kraken are likely to try a number of forwards there over the course of their captain's recovery.

Eberle (lower body) isn't expected to play Wednesday and a timetable for his recovery is still being determined. "We saw a doc on Monday, we're getting a couple of other opinions, and we should probably have more in the next 24 hours - a better, clearer picture as to what we're dealing with and what that timeline will look like," GM Ron Francis said, per Julian Gaudio of The Hockey News on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Eberle has six goals and 11 points in 17 appearances in 2024-25. He's missed Seattle's past two games due to his lower-body injury. When he's healthy, Eberle figures to serve in a top-six capacity. Ben Meyers is projected to remain in the lineup for a second straight game Wednesday due in part to Eberle's absence.

Head coach Dan Bylsma relayed that Eberle (lower body) is undergoing additional tests Tuesday to determine the extent of his injury, according to Tim Booth of the Seattle Times.

EDGE Analysis

Eberle has missed two consecutive games, and he'll most likely be unavailable for Wednesday's home matchup against Nashville. The right-shot winger has accounted for six goals, five assists and a plus-3 rating through 17 games. Daniel Sprong has filled a top-six role in Seattle's last two contests since being reacquired in a trade from Vancouver on Nov. 8.

Eberle (lower body) will miss Saturday's game against the Islanders and Sunday's tilt versus the Rangers, Alison Lukan of the Kraken Hockey Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eberle will be evaluated further after the weekend, so a better timetable for his return could be revealed next week. He left Thursday's 3-1 win over Chicago due to the injury. Eberle has six goals and 11 points in 17 outings in 2024-25. Although the Kraken are temporarily losing Eberle, Daniel Sprong might make his debut with the squad Saturday. He was acquired from Vancouver in exchange for future considerations last Friday and has gotten his immigration paperwork approved, which enables him to play for the Kraken.

Eberle (lower body) is doubtful to return to Thursday's game versus the Blackhawks, Alison Lukan of the Kraken Hockey Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eberle was injured when he collided awkwardly with the boards following a collision with Chicago defenseman Connor Murphy. The 34-year-old Eberle can be considered day-to-day in the likely event he doesn't get back on the ice Thursday. Daniel Sprong (immigration) might be an option for Saturday's game versus the Islanders if he can get his paperwork sorted out in time, though the Kraken could also opt to call up a forward if Eberle can't play.

Eberle registered two assists and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Eberle ended a five-game point drought when he set up Eeli Tolvanen's power-play marker in the second period. In the third, Eberle assisted again, finding Jared McCann for a long-range empty-netter. The cold spell was somewhat expected after Eberle started the season in good form. He now has six goals, five assists, 27 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 16 outings overall.

Eberle had one assist, two shots on net, one block and four PIM in Tuesday's 8-2 win over Montreal.

EDGE Analysis

Eberle had the primary helper on Ryker Evans' first-period tally, giving the winger at least one point in seven of 10 games played. Eberle still has something in the tank and leads the Kraken in goals (six) and is tied for second in points (nine) and ranks second with a plus-6 rating.

Eberle scored a goal on five shots, blocked four shots and went plus-3 in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Eberle scored for the fourth time over the last five games. The 34-year-old winger has enjoyed a torrid start to 2024-25 with six goals, two assists, 15 shots on net, nine blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over eight contests. Eberle and Jared McCann have stuck together amid the Kraken's lineup shuffling, and they are likely to be among the team leaders on offense throughout the campaign.
