The Seattle Kraken announced that defenseman Brandon Montour will be sidelined for approximately four weeks due to hand surgery. Montour's injury comes at a crucial time for the Kraken as they look to solidify their position in a tight playoff race. He has been a pivotal player on the blue line, contributing not just defensively, but also on offense with his ability to move the puck and join the rush.
Montour’s absence will be felt as the Kraken prepare for a series of important matchups. His experience and skills were integral in helping the team reach the playoffs last season, and now, head coach Dave Hakstol will need to adjust the defensive pairings to compensate for the loss.
The Kraken are hoping for a swift recovery for Montour, who was enjoying a strong season before his injury. Fans are eager to see him return to the ice and regain his form as they strive for a successful postseason run. The assistance of players already on the roster will be critical as they navigate this challenging stretch without him.
