Philipp Grubauer Activated From Injured Reserve
2 years agoSeattle Kraken goaltender Philipp Grubauer (lower body) was activated from Injured Reserve on Friday and appears set to rejoin the action. The German netminder has been on the shelf since getting injured in a game against Colorado on Oct. 21. He has yet to win a game this season through three starts, going 0-1-1 with a 3.77 goals-against average and a .860 save percentage. Grubauer could be back between the sticks Saturday versus the Kings, but it's definitely not a safe bet, as Martin Jones has done a superb job in carrying the team during Grubauer's absence. He has suffered just one regulation loss in his past seven starts and boasts a good 8-4-2 record for the year. The 32-year-old has been benefitting from some outstanding defensive work, with Seattle allowing only 27.4 shots on goal per game. It's helped Jones to post a 2.34 goals-against average with a .912 save percentage and one shutout.
