Per Marisa Ingemi of The Seattle Times, Geekie (upper body) wasn't on the ice for morning skate, indicating he won't play Saturday versus Vancouver.

EDGE Analysis

Geekie will miss at least one contest with the upper-body injury he suffered during Tuesday's loss to the Devils. The 23-year-old blueliner has notched one goal through five games this campaign.

Geekie (upper body) was hurt on a high hit by Jonas Siegenthaler in Tuesday's game versus the Devils. Geekie did not return for the third period, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

No update on Geekie's status was provided after the game, so it's safe to say he's day-to-day for now. The 23-year-old has filled a middle-six role for the Kraken. It's unclear if he'll be good to go for Saturday's home opener against the Canucks.

Geekie scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

Geekie got loose on a partial breakaway and buried the game-tying goal at 7:58 of the third period to erase a 3-0 deficit. The Golden Knights answered with the game-winner just 35 seconds later, but Geekie's still got his first goal as a Kraken. The 23-year-old established himself with nine points, 30 shots on goal and 28 hits in 36 contests with the Hurricanes last year. He's poised to play a larger role in 2021-22 -- the Manitoba native logged 14:46 of ice time while centering the third line Tuesday.

Geekie was taken by Seattle from Carolina in Wednesday's 2021 NHL Expansion Draft, Sara Civian of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Geekie -- who just signed a one-year deal with the Hurricanes on Friday -- will now be taking his talents to the Pacific Northwest. While the 23-year-old natural center is far from a lock for the Opening Night roster, he should at least have the opportunity to earn his place during training camp. He'll need to improve on his 2020-21 numbers in which he garnered nine points in 36 games while averaging 9:47 of ice time.

Geekie secured a one-year, two-way contract from Carolina on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Geekie logged three goals and six assists in 36 games this year, all personal bests, in his first full NHL season. With an 82-game campaign and a more permanent roster spot, Geekie could top all three of those marks in 2021-22 as well, though his ceiling is likely in the 30-point range.
