The Seattle Kraken hope that goaltender Philipp Grubauer can regain his form playing for AHL Coachella Valley after his struggles reached a breaking point this week for the team.

Grubauer has struggled in 21 starts this season, losing 16 of them. His .866 save percentage and 3.83 goals-against average rank last in the NHL this season among netminders who have played in at least 17 games.

The Kraken have a deep pool in terms of quantity and the addition of Berkly Catton gives them a star prospect at the top.
