Sprong has just two points in the playoffs this year.
Seattle Kraken coach Dave Hakstol has confirmed that forward Daniel Sprong is out day-to-day with an upper-body injury and will miss Game 4 against the Dallas Stars on Tuesday evening.
Sprong, 26, has struggled throughout the playoffs, scoring just one goal and adding another assist. He has no points in the second round against Dallas, with both of his points coming in an overtime win in Game 4. He has averaged below 10 minutes a night while playing in a limited role, which is tough to see after scoring a career-high 21 goals and 46 points during the regular season this year.
The injury could pave way for the return of Jared McCann, who is set to take warmups with the team on Tuesday. McCann, the team’s top scorer during the regular season, was injured on a hit by Colorado Avalanche defenseman Cale Makar in Game 4 of the opening round. Makar has subsequently suspended a game, while McCann just started skating for the first time ahead of Game 3.
