Kraken's Oliver Bjorkstrand: Pockets power-play helper
Bjorkstrand recorded a power-play assist and nine shots on goal in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Maple Leafs.
Bjorkstrand racked up five goals and seven assists, including five power-play points, over 14 games in November. The 28-year-old winger has been a pleasant surprise from a middle-six role this season, earning 20 points (eight on the power play) over 24 contests. He's added 60 shots on net, 18 hits and a plus-2 rating. Bjorkstrand's shooting percentage is a reasonable 11.7, suggesting he could push for the 30-goal and 60-point marks this season, though his playmaking has been stronger than his finishing so far.

Kraken's Oliver Bjorkstrand: Good to go
Bjorkstrand (undisclosed) is expected to play in Tuesday's game versus the Blackhawks, per the NHL media site.
Bjorkstrand exited the Kraken's last game early, but it appears that was just a precaution. The 28-year-old winger should be back in his usual third-line role for this contest, as well as on the second power-play unit. He has a goal and six assists over his last six games.

Kraken's Oliver Bjorkstrand: Exits contest
Bjorkstrand (undisclosed) did not finish Friday's game versus the Canucks, Alison Lukan of Root Sports reports.
Bjorkstrand was the second Kraken forward to get hurt in the game, as Brandon Tanev (lower body) was injured in the first period. Bjorkstrand was held without a point in 16:05 of ice time Friday, but he'd racked up seven points over the previous five contests, so his absence will be felt if he misses time. The Kraken don't play again until Tuesday's game in Chicago.

Kraken's Oliver Bjorkstrand: Seven points in eight games
Bjorkstrand had a goal and an assist in a 3-2 overtime loss to Carolina on Thursday.
The goal was pretty. Bjorkstrand cut hard around Brent Burns in the left faceoff circle and scored over Frederik Andersen's glove to put the Kraken up 1-0 in the first period. Bjorkstrand's been a bit of an offensive revelation. He has seven points (two goals, five assists) in eight games. His best season came two years ago in Columbus when he put in 28 goals and ended up with 57 points in 80 games, although his minus-35 rating was one of the league's worst that year. Bjorkstrand leads the Kraken in scoring (tied with Vince Dunn) and could deliver sneaky fantasy value for managers who snag him off the wire.

Kraken's Oliver Bjorkstrand: Nabs helper in shootout loss
Bjorkstrand recorded a power-play assist in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Blues.

Bjorkstrand's helper was his first point of the season, and he's added seven shots on goal, though he had none in Saturday's loss. He continues to work on the third line and second power-play unit for now, though head coach Dave Hakstol may soon consider shuffling lines due to his team's lack of scoring.
