The Seattle Kraken will be without defenseman Vince Dunn for at least three weeks after he was placed on long-term injured reserve due to a mid-body injury.
Cale Fleury was recalled from AHL Coachella Valley to add some necessary depth to the roster.The move is retroactive to October 17 and requires Dunn to miss at least 10 games and 24 days of action. That makes Dunn eligible to return for Seattle's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets on November 11.Dunn didn't play during the third period of the team's 6-4 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday after being injured in the first period.
Due to salary cap reasons, the Kraken played with only one reserve on the roster through the first two weeks of the season. Defenseman Josh Mahura replaced Dunn in the lineup for both of the two games he's missed so far, but a continued absence left the team at risk of being short-handed should another issue arise.Fleury is coming off a hat trick for the Firebirds on Friday night against the San Diego Gulls.
