Seattle Kraken left wing Jared McCann scored the game-winning goal in overtime to power the Kraken over the Vegas Golden Knights on Friday evening. The 28-year-old scored on a breakaway and beat Adin Hill on his backhand. McCann has now scored in each of his past two games and sits with season total of seven goals through 15 games. He also sits with 10 assists and 33 shots on goal. Over his past three seasons in Seattle, McCann has scored at least 25+ goals in each of them with a career-high of 40 in the 2022 campaign. Fantasy managers should continue to rely on McCann from a scoring perspective and is worth a look in favorable matchups in DFS.
Jared McCann Misses Preseason Game With A Lower-Body Injury
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann (lower body) was a late scratch for Wednesday's preseason action against Edmonton. He left the warm-ups early, and the team announced that McCann had sustained a lower-body injury. The severity of the injury is unclear at present. Seattle will be desperate to have its top scorer available for the start of the season. McCann has led the team in goals and points during all of Kraken's three NHL campaigns. He registered 29 goals and 62 points in 80 games last season.
Jared McCann Registers Three Points In Win Over Jets
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann was the main offensive catalyst against Winnipeg on Tuesday, factoring in three goals in a 4-3 road win. He potted a short-handed goal in the second period and added two assists to his tally, including a power-play helper when Andre Burakovsky scored the game-winner with only 2:39 remaining in regulation. McCann has been huge for Seattle lately, going on a scoring tear of 17 points (seven goals, 10 assists) in 12 games. With many forwards underperforming for the Kraken this year, McCann is dominating at the top of the team's goal-scoring charts with 27 markers and also leads the team in overall scoring with 52 points in 61 games.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann recorded a new career high with four points in Thursday's impressive 5-2 victory over the league-leading Canucks. He had one goal and three assists in the contest, matching a franchise record for most points in a game. McCann also set a new Kraken record in the contest with his ninth power-play goal of the campaign -- it marks the most power-play markers a Kraken player has scored across a single season. Following a slow start, McCann has crushed it in recent weeks and is leading Seattle in goals (25) and points (45).
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann had two goals in Monday's painful 4-3 overtime loss against the Red Wings. With McCann in top form in front of the net, the Kraken tied the game three times but couldn't find the game-winner. McCann potted his first goal in a power-play situation. The 27-year-old has been producing some hot stuff over the last six weeks, going on a run of 10 goals and nine assists in 15 games. He leads Seattle with 24 goals and is tied for the first spot with 41 points.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann suffered a lower-body injury in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss in Dallas. Seattle almost won despite also losing Pierre-Edouard Bellemare (lower body) from its forwards group in the game. McCann logged 9:10 of action and finished with a minus-one rating. He's the team's top goal-scorer with 14 markers and one of only four players on the squad to hit 20 points this season, so the Kraken's attack will take a big hit if McCann has to spend an extended time on the shelf. We should get an update on him ahead of Wednesday's action against the Kings.
Seattle Kraken left wing Jared McCann scored his seventh goal of the season in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss against the Oilers. McCann's goal tied the game at one as he scored one of the three unanswered goals by the Kraken in the second period, but the team was unable to provide any additional support on the offensive end and failed to protect the lead in the final frame. McCann ranks second on the team with seven goals scored through 17 games, which trails only Kraken center Jaden Schwartz with eight goals on the season.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann potted his first goal of the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs in Thursday's 5-2 loss to Dallas. After falling behind 3-0, McCann helped the Kraken get the deficit to one goal, but the team couldn't add any more goals and will now face elimination in the next game. Seattle has had an incredible postseason run, considering their regular-season top scorer played in only his sixth playoff contest Thursday. McCann has failed to replicate his regular-season form in the playoffs, notching only two points, but he will get at least one more opportunity to try to do so, with Game 6 in the series coming up on Saturday.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann could be back in the lineup Tuesday for Game 4 against Dallas, with head coach Dave Hakstol announcing that McCann will take part in the warmups to determine if he feels well enough to play. Incredibly, the Kraken find themselves just two wins away from a Western Conference Finals spot despite missing a 40-goal scorer. McCann had a career year during the regular season and finished with 70 points in total. He was quiet in the playoff before getting hurt, notching only one point across four outings.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann (undisclosed) won't be available for Sunday's Game 3 against Dallas. He skated in Saturday's practice, but Seattle's top goal-scorer is still recovering from an undisclosed injury that he suffered in Game 4 of the first-round series against Colorado. McCann, who posted 40 goals and 30 assists during the regular season, has been a huge miss for the Kraken, but the team has found a way to be competitive without him, going 3-2 in the five games McCann has missed. Tye Kartye has replaced McCann on the first line, scoring two goals on five shots and registering an impressive plus-four rating.
Tye Kartye Likely Replacing Jared McCann On Top Line Wednesday
Seattle Kraken forward Tye Kartye is set to make his NHL debut on the first line Wednesday against Colorado. The Kraken's top-line center Jared McCann (undisclosed) was injured in Game 4 of the first-round series and won't be available Wednesday, paving the way for Kartye to jump into the lineup. The 21-year-old has enjoyed a very good campaign with the Coachella Valley Firebirds in the AHL and was voted the league's Rookie of the Year after putting up 28 goals and 29 assists in 72 appearances. A spot on the first line gives Kartye a great opportunity to make an instant impact in the big league as well.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 5 against Colorado after he was hurt in the fourth game of the series Monday night. He took a late hit from Colorado's Cale Makar early in the game and left after logging only 3:38 of ice time. Seattle managed to tie the series without McCann, but his absence will be a massive blow, especially with Kraken head coach Dave Hakstol suggesting that McCann's absence won't be limited to just one game. McCann has been quiet in the playoffs, posting only one assist in four games, but he had a big 40-goal campaign during the regular season and led the team with 70 points.
Jared McCann Keeps Hot Streak Going Against Arizona
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann logged a fourth multi-point outing in five games on Monday, bagging a goal and an assist in a 4-1 victory over Arizona. He became a 40-goal scorer for the first time in his career, and McCann has also delivered 30 assists in 77 games. 10 of McCann's 70 points have come in the past five games, so it's safe to say that he will be heading into the playoffs as one of the league's hottest players. McCann, who's one of only 13 players this season with 40-plus goals and 30-plus assists, will close out the regular season with a couple of contests against the Golden Knights.
Jared McCann Leads Seattle To Victory With Three Points
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann maintained his hot scoring form in Thursday's matchup against Detroit, leading all scorers with three points in a 5-4 overtime victory. He scored twice in the opening frame and logged a power-play assist when Oliver Bjorkstrand ended the game 3:33 into overtime. McCann set a new career high by reaching 29 goals for the season, and he now boasts 11 points from his last 10 appearances. It's been an impressive scoring surge from the 26-year-old, and with him now on 46 points, setting a new scoring record should be only a matter of time for McCann, whose current best stands at 50 points.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann scored his 23rd goal of the season and had two assists as the team picked apart Vancouver 6-1 Wednesday night. He notched a power-play goal and one of his assists also came with the man advantage. It was McCann's second three-point effort of the season. Both have actually come this month, although McCann has been on a bit of a cold spell lately with six scoreless games in nine outings. Despite the drop in gorm, McCann still leads the team in goals and has had a good campaign overall with 34 points in 44 games.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann had a very special night against Chicago on Saturday, scoring his first NHL hat trick in an 8-5 victory. He had two goals during the team's amazing six-goal effort in the first period and completed the three-goal game early in the third. Jordan Eberle was previously the only player to have hit a hat trick in a Kraken uniform. McCann leads the team in goals with 22 markers and is enjoying a very good campaign with 30 points posted in 39 games. His prolific form should only continue, as Seattle has built up very good momentum by becoming the first team in NHL history to sweep a road trip of at least seven games.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann completed a comeback victory Sunday against Winnipeg, scoring a 3-2 game-winning goal with 4:32 left in regulation. After giving up a pair of power-play goals, the Kraken found themselves 2-1 down after two periods, but Ryan Donato tied things up with just 16 seconds played in the third and McCann then finished off the comeback. It's his 14th goal of the campaign and his 20th point. The 26-year-old has found some fine form lately, staying off the score sheet just two times in the past seven games. He's the team's leading goal-scorer and also boasts 21 hits in 27 games, so fantasy managers are getting plenty of value out of McCann.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann is carrying an unspecified injury and is considered a game-time decision for Thursday's clash with Minnesota. He skipped the morning skate and could now end up sitting out his first game of the season. McCann has been putting up very solid numbers from Seattle's third line this season, scoring five goals and recording three assists in 11 games. Shane Wright took over his spot at the morning skate and looks set to re-enter the lineup if McCann is out. The fourth pick of this year's draft has sat out four consecutive games as a healthy scratch. It would be exciting to see Wright in the lineup, but he's played very little part in Seattle's season so far and fantasy managers should definitely keep their expectations low.
The Seattle Kraken made a surprise move on Wednesday and placed top-scoring forward Jared McCann on the injured list with an upper-body issue. Acquired during the expansion draft last summer, the forward leads the club in goals (21) and points (33) through 48 games. McCann, 25, could be a long-term option for the club and he's enjoyed a career year after surpassing his previous high in goals (14) and coming close to his best points total (35). The loss of McCann is an unfortunate one for his fantasy owners but there is no indication that he's dealing with a long-term injury. To fill his roster spot, the club promoted forward Kole Lind from the American Hockey League.
Seattle Kraken forward Jared McCann celebrated two goals in Monday's 7-4 win over Buffalo, reaching 10 markers for the campaign. He produced four shots in total and was plus-two for the game in 14 minutes of action. McCann is second on the team in goal-scoring and third in points (14). He's been a top-six forward for the team but currently skates on the third line with Morgan Geekie and Brandon Tanev. They had a spectacular night against the Sabres, combining for seven points.
