|---|---|---|
| Aug. 20, 2024 | Beniers agreed to terms on a seven-year, $50 million contract extension with Seattle on Tuesday. - Beniers suffered a sophomore slump last season, posting just 15 goals and 22 helpers in 77 outings -- well behind the 57 points in 80 games he recorded as a rookie the year prior. Still, the 2021 second-overall pick remains the top center option for the club entering the upcoming 2024-25 campaign and figures to offer decent offensive upside. Fantasy managers should be able to count on Beniers getting back over the 50-point threshold. | None |
| April 19, 2024 | Beniers scored a power-play goal on three shots in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Wild. - Beniers snapped a four-game drought with his goal in the final game of the season. The 21-year-old center had a disappointing year on offense with 15 goals and 37 points over 77 appearances after posting 57 points in 80 games as a rookie. Beniers showed growth in his two-way game, but it'll be interesting to see how negotiations shake out with a new contract needed for the restricted free agent, which is likely to be at the top of the to-do list for general manager Ron Francis. | None |
| April 9, 2024 | Beniers logged two assists, including one on the power play, and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Coyotes. - Beniers has four goals and four helpers over his last seven contests. He's struggled with consistency this year, but he's putting together a solid finish to the campaign. The 21-year-old center has 36 points (12 on the power play), 126 shots on net and a minus-8 rating through 72 outings overall. | None |
| April 5, 2024 | Beniers scored a power-play goal on two shots in Friday's 3-1 win over the Ducks. - Beniers has four goals and two assists over his last six games as he tries to salvage a strong finish to an otherwise rough campaign. His goal Friday was the 100th point of his career, a mark he reached in 161 contests.

| April 1, 2024 | Beniers scored a goal on four shots and added two PIM in Monday's 4-2 win over the Sharks. - Beniers is warming up again with three goals and two helpers over his last four contests.

Beniers hasn't posted a point streak longer than three games all season, a fact that has made it tough for him to shake off the sophomore slump. | None |

The center is up to 24 points, 92 shots on net, 34 hits, 29 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 52 appearances. He's gotten by on strong two-way play, but the offense has been disappointing from a fantasy perspective. | None |

The goal is Beniers' first point in six games since returning from IR. It's been a disappointing sophomore campaign overall for the 21-year-old center -- he now has seven goals and 20 points through 48 games. | None |
| Jan. 26, 2024 | Beniers (upper body) will be a game-time decision for Friday's home matchup against the Blues, per Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network - Beniers missed the last five games with his upper-body injury. His status for Friday's contest likely won't be confirmed until the Kraken take the ice for pregame warmups, so fantasy managers should plan accordingly. The 21-year-old has registered six goals and 13 assists in 42 games, he will likely need to step up his production if the Kraken have a shot of making the playoffs. | None |
| Jan. 23, 2024 | Beniers (upper body) is considered day-to-day, Alison Lukan of Root Sports reports. - Beniers, who has missed the past four games, participated in Tuesday's practice.

| Jan. 15, 2024 | Beniers (upper body) won't be in the lineup for Monday's game against Pittsburgh, Kate Shefte of The Seattle Times reports. - Benier will miss at least one game with the upper-body injury he sustained during Saturday's win over Columbus. Alexander Wennberg will likely replace Beniers on the top line versus the Penguins. | None |

The Kraken have a back-to-back in Pittsburgh and against the Rangers on Monday and Tuesday, respectively, and it's unclear if Beniers will be available for those games. With Andre Burakovsky (lower body) also leaving the contest, the Kraken may need to have Devin Shore and Kailer Yamamoto in the lineup. | None |
| Jan. 10, 2024 | Beniers scored a goal and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Sabres. - Beniers snapped a four-game point drought with the second-period tally, which was the last goal of the contest. The 21-year-old center has had trouble getting on the scoresheet consistently. He's at six goals, 19 points, 72 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating through 40 appearances. With an 8.3 shooting percentage that's likely to go up in the second half, he could still be useful in fantasy. | None |
| Dec. 23, 2023 | Beniers registered two assists, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Ducks. - Beniers has a goal and four helpers over his last three games. He's had an instant connection with Tomas Tatar on the top line, giving the Kraken a bit of a scoring spark.

| Dec. 20, 2023 | Beniers notched an assist, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Kings. - Beniers set up Jordan Eberle for a breakaway goal in the third period that ended up being the game-winner. With three points over his last two games, Beniers' offense has sparked a bit on a new-look top line with Eberle and Tomas Tatar, who was traded from Colorado last week. Beniers is at 16 points, 66 shots on net, a minus-17 rating, 14 hits and 12 blocked shots over 34 appearances, but his 7.6 shooting percentage suggests he could benefit from positive regression by the end of the campaign. | None |
| Dec. 19, 2023 | Beniers tallied a goal and an assist in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to Dallas. - Beniers set up Tomas Tatar for Seattle's opening goal in the first minute of the second period before adding a tally later in the frame, firing a wrist shot past a sprawling Scott Wedgewood.

He was streaky at times as a rookie last year, but he's capable of playing better than he has for much of the first month of the campaign. | None |

Beniers snapped a three-game pointless streak with this goal as he looks to get on track offensively. He has just two goals and eight points in 18 games after posting 24 goals in his rookie season.

This game marks the second multi-point effort from the reigning Calder Trophy winner as he has struggled out of the gate to start the new season.

| Oct. 19, 2023 | Beniers logged an assist in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Hurricanes. - Beniers has looked a bit out of sorts to begin his second NHL campaign. He got on the scoresheet with a feed to set up Tye Kartye's third-period marker Thursday.

Through eight playoff games, Beniers has been limited two two points, 17 shots on net, six blocked shots and five hits.

The rookie center often found offense in bursts while racking up 24 goals and 57 points in 80 contests in 2022-23, so it's possible he could build off of Tuesday's performance. | None |
| April 23, 2023 | Beniers scored a goal on three shots and went minus-2 in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Avalanche in Game 3. - Beniers' tally snapped his four-game point drought.

| April 4, 2023 | Beniers scored an empty-net goal on three shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Canucks. - Beniers was sharp defensively throughout the game, and he was rewarded by finding the empty net from deep in his own zone.

He's the first rookie in the league to reach the latter level.

| March 18, 2023 | Beniers notched an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Oilers. - Beniers helped out on Jaden Schwartz's tally in the first period.

He snapped that by setting up Justin Schultz for a power-play goal in the second period, and he added a breakaway tally after intercepting a pass in the third.

It's possible the lack of an update was due to how late in the game the injury occurred, though Beniers was seen needing assistance to get down the tunnel after the game.
