The Seattle Kraken are holding center Alex Wennberg out of tonight’s game for “trade-related issues”.
Wennberg figures to be one of the most sought-after centers left on the trade market.
Wennberg’s cap hit is $4.5 million in 2023-24, after which he’s eligible to be a UFA. Seattle has all 3 retention spots available, so they could retain a portion of his salary to facilitate a higher return.
