Geekie has missed the Kraken's previous two games due to an upper-body injury but will return to the lineup Tuesday as they take on the Montreal Canadiens. The 24-year-old had four goals, five assists, 15 SOG and a +13 plus/minus in 18 games with the Kraken prior to his injury.
Geekie will not play Wednesday in Dallas, so Alex Wennberg will move up to the third line and Max McCormick will draw back into the lineup.
With Jordan Staal out because of COVID-19 protocol, Geekie will draw into the lineup on Saturday. It’s unclear how the Hurricanes’ lines will shake out but Vincent Trocheck figures to move up to the second line with Geekie handling a bottom-6 role.
Geekie was a third-round pick (No.67 overall) in 2017 and leads all active Checkers with 22 goals and is third with 42 points in 55 AHL games this season. Geekie is expected to replace Ryan Dzingel (upper-body) and skate on the fourth line with Nino Niederreiter and Jordan Martinook in his NHL debut.
