Seattle Kraken

Frederick Gaudreau is out 4-6 weeks because of an upper-body injury, the Kraken announced Saturday. The forward did not return to a 4-3 shootout loss to the Ottawa Senators on Thursday after taking a hit from defenseman Tyler Kleven in the final minute of the second period. Gaudreau has one assist in four games this season. The Kraken also announced defenseman Brandon Montour is taking a temporary leave of absence to attend to a family matter. Seattle, which visits Toronto on Saturday (7 p.m. ET; CBC, SNO, SNP, NHLN, KONG, KHN), recalled forward John Hayden from Coachella Valley of the AHL.
