Joey Daccord Re-Signs With Kraken

June 30, 2023 at 6:21 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose 2 Comments

Seattle won’t be letting Joey Daccord test the open market tomorrow.  Instead, the team announced (Twitter link) that they’ve re-signed the netminder to a two-year contract.  The deal will carry an AAV of $1.2MM.  CapFriendly reports (Twitter link) that the salary is an even $1.2MM per season with no signing bonuses.

The 26-year-old was eligible to reach unrestricted free agency as a Group Six player as he has just 19 career NHL appearances under his belt over parts of five professional campaigns.  Five of those top-level contests came this season with the Kraken where he put up a 3.14 GAA and a .900 SV%, numbers that were an improvement on his career averages of 3.64 and .884, respectively.

Daccord spent most of the season with AHL Coachella Valley, performing quite well for the Firebirds.  He finished fifth in the minors in both GAA (2.38) and SV% (.918), helping to lead his team to the second-best record in the AHL.  He found another gear in the playoffs, posting a 2.22 GAA and a .926 SV% but Coachella Valley fell in the seventh game of the Calder Cup Finals earlier this month to Hershey.

With Martin Jones set to hit the open market tomorrow, there’s an opening between the pipes in Seattle for a partner with incumbent starter Philipp Grubauer.  It’s quite possible that Daccord and veteran Chris Driedger could battle for that number two spot with the loser going on waivers and returning to the Firebirds if he clears.  If that happens with Daccord, all but $50K of his cap hit would be cleared off the books, limiting the risk that the Kraken are taking with this type of commitment for someone who has been a third option for the majority of his career.  But as far as insurance policies go in goal, Daccord has shown himself to be one of the stronger ones.

    Joey should be able to win the backup spot this year. I believe Dreidger will move on one way or another.
