Grubauer will start against the Blues on Wednesday.

Seattle has snuck their way into a Wild Card spot after a 7-3-0 run, and will turn to Grubauer on Wednesday against the St. Louis Blues. The 34-year-old Grubauer entered the Olympic break on an outstanding run, posting a 1.99 GAA and .933 SV%, but has not been able to recapture that momentum since returning, allowing eight goals on 62 combined shots (.871 SV%) in two games (0-2-0). The Kraken enter the action on Wednesday as -140 home favourites against a Blues team that defeated them 5-1 last week.
