Kraken's Ryker Evans: Set to return
Evans (hand) will be in the lineup Friday versus the Devils, per Sound of Hockey.
Evans missed two games with the injury. The 22-year-old defenseman was rolling prior to the issue, racking up five helpers over his previous four games. Evans will play on the third pairing and should also see time on the second power-play unit, while Josh Mahura will sit as a healthy scratch.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Dealing with injury
Evans (hand) will not be in the lineup Tuesday on the road against the Hurricanes, Piper Shaw of Kraken Hockey Network reports.
Evans will miss his first game of the season. The left-shot blueliner was injured blocking a shot in Saturday's loss to San Jose, and he was unable to be a full participant at Monday's practice. Josh Mahura will draw back into the lineup Tuesday in Evans' stead.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Dealing with injury
Evans wasn't a full participant in Monday's practice session due to an apparent hand injury, 99.3 KJR reports.
Evans appeared to sustain a right hand injury on a blocked shot during Saturday's loss to San Jose, and even though he played through the issue down the stretch, he's dealing with lingering effects Monday. Head coach Dan Bylsma said Monday that he's concerned about Evans' injury, so the defenseman's status for Tuesday's game in Carolina appears to be up in the air.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Stays in top four
Evans logged an assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Sharks.
Vince Dunn (upper body) returned from long-term injured reserve Saturday, which was believed to be the end of Evans' run in a prominent role. Instead, head coach Dan Bylsma tinkered with all of his defensive pairings, putting Evans alongside Brandon Montour on the second pair and moving Jamie Oleksiak down to the third pair alongside Will Borgen. This is a huge vote of confidence in Evans' play, and it's well-earned -- he has five helpers over the last four games and a total of 16 points, 30 shots on net, 40 hits and 42 blocked shots across 25 outings this season. Evans also maintained a spot on the second power-play unit, so it looks like he'll retain decent fantasy value for a while.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Produces two helpers in loss
Evans logged two assists, two hits, three blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Friday's 8-5 loss to the Sharks.
Evans has a pair of two-assist games over his last three outings. The 22-year-old defenseman is up to 15 points, 29 shots on net, 39 hits, 40 blocked shots, 10 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 24 outings. Evans could see a reduced role once Vince Dunn (upper body) returns, but Evans has done enough to handle important minutes for the Kraken moving forward.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Collects pair of assists in win
Evans notched two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 3-2 win over the Ducks.
Evans snapped a three-game dry spell on offense. He helped out on goals by Shane Wright and Andre Burakovsky as the Kraken got some contributions from struggling forwards. Through 22 contests, Evans is up to three goals, 10 assists, 26 shots on net, 36 hits, 36 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. He's looked every bit the part of an NHL defenseman while frequently filling a top-four role, especially with Vince Dunn on the mend from an upper-body injury.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Helps out on power play
Evans posted a power-play assist, three hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Evans led the Kraken with 24:33 of ice time in this contest. The 22-year-old blueliner has been limited to two assists over six outings in November, but he's also played more than 20 minutes in five of those games as he continues to fill in on the top pairing for Vince Dunn (upper body). For the season, Evans has nine points (two on the power play), 21 shots on net, 30 hits, 28 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 17 appearances. That matches his point total from 36 games last season, and it's a scoring pace that could make him useful in fantasy given his other contributions.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Contributes helper
Evans logged an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Avalanche.
Evans was dropped from the first pairing Tuesday, but he still saw 18:20 of ice time in a third-pairing role. The 22-year-old has a goal and two assists over his last five contests. Evans is up to eight points, 20 shots on net, 22 hits, 23 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 14 contests. He had nine points in 36 games in 2023-24, so he's clearly taken a step forward as he tries to establish himself as a full-time NHL player.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Slides assist in loss
Evans produced an assist and blocked four shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Maple Leafs.
Evans is in line for another short-term boost while Brandon Montour is away from the team for the birth of his child. That gives Evans a chance to play on the first power-play unit, in addition to the top-pairing role he took over when Vince Dunn (upper body) landed on long-term injured reserve. Evans is up to seven points, 17 shots on net, 20 hits, 19 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 11 appearances. The 22-year-old is definitely worth a look as a streaming and DFS play for the Kraken's back-to-back in Ottawa on Saturday and Boston on Sunday.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Joins the party in win
Evans scored a goal on one shot in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Canadiens. He added three hits, three blocks and two PIM.
Evans sent a puck toward the net that hit something before getting past Sam Montembeault to give the Kraken an early 2-0 lead. The tally was Evans' third to go along with three assists through his first 10 contests. After scoring a modest nine points over 36 games in 2023-24, Evans is well on his way to surpass that.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Nets goal against Colorado
Evans scored a power-play marker in Tuesday's 3-2 loss versus the Avalanche.
Evans' goal at 19:55 of the third period cut Seattle's deficit to one, but it was too little too late. In addition to scoring, Evans collected four shots, three blocks and two hits in 22:53 of ice time. With Vince Dunn (upper body) on long-term injured reserve, Evans is stepping up his game in all facets, and he's seen increased ice time in each of his last four appearances. The left-shot blueliner has logged two goals, three assists and a plus-5 rating over seven games.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Nabs assist in win
Evans logged an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-5 in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Flyers.
Evans impressed on the defensive side of things, especially after Vince Dunn had his minutes managed in the third period. Through five games, Evans has a goal, three assists, seven shots on net, six blocked shots, six hits and a plus-5 rating. If Dunn misses any additional time with the lingering effects of an upper-body injury he sustained last weekend, Evans would jump into a top-four role. Fantasy managers in dynasty formats should already have Evans stashed, and if he can keep his offense up, he'll draw some appeal in redraft formats as well.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Continues strong start with goal
Evans scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Predators.
Evans opened the scoring just 3:37 into the game. Through four contests, Evans has a goal, two assists, six shots on net, five hits and four blocked shots. The 22-year-old defenseman has mostly played on the third pairing, but he played alongside Adam Larsson when Vince Dunn missed Sunday's contest with an upper-body injury. Evans was limited to nine points in 36 outings during the 2023-24 regular season, but he's poised to shatter those marks in his first full NHL campaign.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Dishes pair of assists
Evans recorded two assists, three shots on goal, two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 6-2 preseason win over the Oilers.
Evans was in the lineup over Josh Mahura with the Kraken playing a lineup that looks very similar to what they're expected to roll out for Opening Night versus the Blues on Tuesday. The pair of helpers were Evans' first points in four preseason outings. While it looks like he's set to begin the year on the third pairing, he won't have an obvious path to power-play time -- Brandon Montour and Vince Dunn are expected to be the blueliners that see time with the man advantage.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Dropped to AHL
Evans was reassigned to AHL Coachella Valley on Sunday.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Nabs assist in loss
Evans provided an assist, four hits and four PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Jets.
Evans ended a 10-game point drought with the helper on Yanni Gourde's second-period tally. The 22-year-old defenseman has seen a larger role lately due to Vince Dunn (upper body) missing time late in the season. Evans is at nine points 43 shots on net, 60 hits, 36 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 35 outings. He will likely play Thursday versus the Wild and then return to AHL Coachella Valley for the Calder Cup playoffs.

Kraken's Ryker Evans: Game-time decision against Ducks
Evans (lower body) will be a game-time call versus Anaheim on Thursday, Kate Shefte of The Seattle Times reports.
Evans and fellow blueliner Gustav Olofsson exited the ice at about the same time at morning skate, so Olofsson figures to get into the lineup if Evans can't give it a go. It's been an up-and-down campaign for Evans, as he has consistently been shuffled between levels. In his last nine outings, the Calgary native appears to have found his offensive stride with a goal and three assists while averaging 17:11 of ice time.
