Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Prevails over Mammoth
Grubauer stopped 33 of 36 shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Mammoth.
Grubauer picked up a second straight win with this performance. He's now started four of the Kraken's last five games, earning seven of a possible eight standings points in that stretch. That makes him the hot hand, though head coach Lane Lambert has made sure Joey Daccord doesn't sit for too long. Grubauer is 4-1-1 with a 2.76 GAA and a .907 save percentage over seven games. With the Kraken off to a 7-3-1 start as a team, whichever goalie is starting is a viable fantasy option for managers chasing wins. The Kraken will be tested in their next game when they host the Wild on Saturday.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Set to start Thursday
Grubauer will protect the home goal versus the Mammoth on Thursday, per Sound of Hockey.
Grubauer will get a second straight start and his fourth in the Kraken's last five games. He looks to have temporarily usurped Joey Daccord for the No. 1 job, as Grubauer has picked up more work since the two netminders split the first four games of the year.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Wins in shootout
Grubauer stopped 22 of 25 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Red Wings.
This could have been a much less dramatic performance -- Grubauer kept the Red Wings off the board for the first two periods. A three-goal collapse in the third sent it to overtime, but Grubauer stopped three of four attempts in the shootout to seal the win. He's allowed nine goals on 86 shots while starting three of the Kraken's last four games (no back-to-backs). Head coach Lane Lambert remains as unpredictable as ever with his goalie usage, so it's unclear if Grubauer will get a chance to build off this win when the Kraken host the Mammoth on Thursday.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Overcomes speed wobble for win
Grubauer made 24 saves through overtime and stopped four-of-five attempts in the shootout Tuesday. Seattle won 3-2 over Philadelphia.
Grubauer had a bit of a speed wobble in the third period, allowing two goals in a span of just 1:13. But he shook it off and was solid from that point forward. Grubauer (three starts) and Joey Daccord (four starts) are splitting the Kraken net, and both men have been solid in the paint. Consider Grubauer in daily matchups or in weekly formats when the game split gives him two starts.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Faces high volume in win
Grubauer stopped 37 of 40 shots on net in Friday's 6-3 win over the Red Wings.
Grubauer earned his first win of the 2026-27 campaign Friday, where he faced a barrage of shots from Detroit's offense and held up well. Across three appearances to begin the new season, he has been solid with a 1-1-0 record, a 2.59 GAA and a .917 save percentage over 72 shots on goal. While Joey Daccord still holds the starting job in Seattle, Friday's outing was a step in the right direction for the 34-year-old Grubauer in creating a true timeshare. Expect Grubauer to see a floor of 30 appearances in 2026-27, and when he is called upon to start, he's a solid streaming option for fantasy managers in a bind.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Tending twine Friday
Grubauer will protect the road goal versus the Red Wings on Friday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Grubauer will make his second start and third appearance of the season. He has allowed three goals on 32 shots so far this season. Joey Daccord is expected to command a majority of the starts in goal, but Grubauer's play has been steady enough for him to challenge for something closer to an even timeshare in net.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Makes relief appearance
Grubauer stopped six of seven shots in relief of Joey Daccord in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Grubauer played the third period after a lackluster performance from Daccord and the Kraken as a whole over the first 40 minutes. Grubauer has done well in two outings this season, giving up three goals on 31 shots against playoff-caliber opponents. The 34-year-old netminder could work his way into a more even split of playing time if he continues to do well. The Kraken are heading on the road for a five-game trip, which begins in Detroit on Friday.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Falls to Oilers
Grubauer stopped 22 of 24 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to Edmonton, with the Oilers' final goal getting scored into an empty net.
Making his first appearance of the season, Grubauer kept the Kraken in the contest but didn't get a lot of offensive support. The veteran netminder produced a 2.65 GAA and .909 save percentage in 2025-26, better ratios than Joey Daccord, and if that trend continues into the current campaign, Grubauer could work his way into a timeshare rather than being the clear No. 2 in the crease.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Slated to face Edmonton
Grubauer is slated to start on the road against Edmonton on Saturday, per Sound of Hockey.
Grubauer had a 2.65 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 32 outings with Seattle during the 2025-26 regular season. He's gearing up for his first start of the new campaign. Edmonton is missing Zach Hyman (undisclosed), Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (lower body) and Matt Savoie (lower body), so its forward group is missing some noteworthy members. Despite that, Edmonton figures to be a difficult adversary after accumulating 14 goals across two games against Vancouver to open the campaign.

Kraken's Philipp Grubauer: Nabs shootout win
Grubauer stopped 32 of 35 shots in Thursday's 4-3 preseason shootout win over the Flames.
Grubauer has done well this preseason, stopping 47 of 51 shots over two games. The 34-year-old isn't eligible to play Saturday against the Canucks due to limitations on veterans in the preseason, so his next start will come in the regular season. The Kraken have a back-to-back over the first weekend of the campaign, so Grubauer won't have to wait long to get back between the pipes.

Grubauer stopped 15 of 16 shots against the Flames over two periods in his start Sunday. The 34-year-old netminder will make his last appearance of the preseason in this contest.

Grubauer turned aside 15 of 16 shots in Sunday's 4-2 preseason win over the Flames.
