Seattle Kraken Secure Goalie Joey Daccord with 5-Year, $25M Extension

The deal ensures Daccord remains with the team, avoiding free agency after a standout season.

  • Joey Daccord's new contract with the Seattle Kraken will begin next season, extending through the 2029-30 season.
  • Daccord was previously on a two-year deal worth $1.2 million annually and was set to become an unrestricted free agent.
  • The 28-year-old goaltender delivered a career-best performance last season, posting a 19-18-11 record with a .916 save percentage.
  • His strong play helped the Kraken stay competitive despite an overall underperforming season.
  • The extension is part of a recent trend of significant contracts for NHL goalies, including deals for Jeremy Swayman and Linus Ullmark.
