Seattle Kraken forward Alex Wennberg won't play Monday night against the Calgary Flames amid a potential trade.
He didn't take part in the morning skate, and coach Dave Hakstol confirmed Wennberg's status, citing "trade-related issues."
The NHL trade deadline is Friday.
Wennberg, 29, is in the final season of a three-year, $13.5 million contract and is due to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the league year.
The Swede has 25 points (nine goals, 16 assists) in 60 games this season.
The 14th overall draft pick by the Blue Jackets in 2013, he has played for Columbus, the Florida Panthers and Kraken. He has tallied 330 points (90 goals, 240 assists) in 693 games and was a member of the original Kraken expansion roster in the 2021-22 season.
The Kraken are nine points out of the final wild-card spot in the Western Conference entering play Monday.
