Grubauer made 18 saves in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
The Kraken were down 4-1 early in the third period, but Grubauer shut the door the rest of the way as his team mounted a comeback. The veteran goalie has been beaten at least four times in four of his last five starts, but strong offensive support has allowed him to go 3-2-0 in that stretch despite a 3.83 GAA and .878 save percentage. Grubauer will serve as Seattle's top netminder as long as Joey Daccord (undisclosed) is sidelined.

Grubauer is slated to guard the road goal Saturday versus the Canucks, Kate Shefte of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Joey Daccord (undisclosed) is banged up, so Grubauer is set to make his first start in a week. Over five outings in December, Grubauer has gone 2-3-0 with an .894 save percentage (152 saves on 170 shots). Ales Stezka will be his backup as long as Daccord is out.

Grubauer gave up five goals on 33 shots in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Golden Knights. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Grubauer lost for the fourth time in his last six outings, and he's given up at least four goals in four of those games. Vegas got to him early with three goals in the first period before pouring on some more in the final frame. The 33-year-old netminder is down to 3-10-0 with a 3.63 GAA and an .877 save percentage over 13 contests. The Kraken are struggling to support their goalies with offense, but Grubauer hasn't done his part to keep things close lately. Joey Daccord is likely to start Sunday in Colorado.

Grubauer stopped 26 of 30 shots in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Lightning, who also scored an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Grubauer was spotted a 1-0 lead early, but the Lightning quickly responded. They held a 2-1 lead at the first intermission and ran away with the game in the third period. Grubauer lost for the first time in three starts, but he has allowed 13 goals over his last four outings. The 33-year-old is 3-9-0 with a 3.50 GAA and an .879 save percentage over his 12 starts this season. It wouldn't be surprising to see Joey Daccord get the nod versus the Senators on Tuesday.

Grubauer was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, per Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network, indicating he will patrol the home crease Saturday versus Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Grubauer has won his last two outings, including a 33-save performance in Thursday's 5-1 win over Boston. He has a 3-8-0 record with a 3.46 GAA and an .881 save percentage across 11 appearances this campaign. Tampa Bay sits second in the league with 3.96 goals per game in 2024-25.

Grubauer stopped 33 of 34 shots in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Grubauer won his second start in a row, and this was arguably his best game of the year. The 33-year-old limited the damage to a Brad Marchand penalty shot in the second period, which came after Brandon Montour covered the puck in the crease when Grubauer couldn't find it. Grubauer is now 3-8-0 with a 3.46 GAA and an .881 save percentage through 11 outings. Joey Daccord has been the better of the Kraken's goalies this season, but getting Grubauer into form could create some internal competition for time in the crease. The Kraken have a challenging home game Saturday when they host the Lightning.
