Tye Kartye Likely Replacing Jared McCann On Top Line Wednesday
2 years agoSeattle 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.
