Overview

  • The Kraken sent a 2025 fourth-round pick and a 2026 third-round pick to Dallas in exchange for Mason Marchment.
  • Marchment, a 6-foot-5 forward, matched his career high with 22 goals and added 25 assists in 62 games last season.
  • The move aligns with GM Botterill’s offseason priority to boost the Kraken’s strength in front of the opposition net.
  • The Stars shed Marchment’s $4.5 million cap hit to create salary space after signing Mikko Rantanen to an eight-year, $96 million contract.
  • He has appeared in three straight Western Conference Finals with Dallas, bringing postseason know-how to a team seeking a return to the playoffs.
