Seattle Kraken prospect Logan Morrison will be attending the upcoming NHLPA Rookie Showcase in Virginia.
The showcase, presented by Upper Deck, will take place at MedStar Capitals Iceplex in Arlington, Virginia, on Sept. 4. The event is closed to the public. There, players will be photographed for trading cards and also show off their on-ice skills while playing with a variety of prospects from around the league.
Morrison will be the Kraken’s representative and will be joined by some of the league’s top prospects in Macklin Celebrini, Matvei Michkov, Cutter Gauthier and Will Smith.
The full list of players that will be in attendance includes:
Marek Alscher (Panthers), Lian Bichsel (Stars), Gavin Brindley (Blue Jackets), Seamus Casey (Devils), Macklin Celebrini (Sharks), Nikita Chibrikov (Jets), Easton Cowan (Maple Leafs), Nate Danielson (Red Wings), Josh Doan (Utah Hockey Club), Dalibor Dvorsky (Blues), Ivan Fedotov (Flyers), Cutter Gauthier (Ducks), Gage Goncalves (Lightning), Lane Hutson (Canadiens), Nikolai Kovalenko (Avalanche), Jonathan Lekkerimaki (Canucks), Artyom Levshunov (Blackhawks), Logan Mailloux (Canadiens), Matvei Michkov (Flyers), Ivan Miroshnichenko (Capitals), Logan Morrison (Kraken), Shakir Mukhamadullin (Sharks), Bradly Nadeau (Hurricanes), Frank Nazar (Blackhawks), Liam Ohgren (Wild), Zack Ostapchuk (Senators), Noah Ostlund (Sabres), Vasily Ponomarev (Penguins), Matt Rempe (Rangers), Olivier Rodrigue (Oilers), Will Smith (Sharks), Fedor Svechkov (Predators) and Akil Thomas (Kings).
Morrison spent the 2023-24 season with the Coachella Valley Firebirds where he scored 16 goals and 41 points in 64 games. The 22-year-old, 6’0, right-handed centre was a force during his OHL career and showed positive flashes during his first AHL season. His playoff run wasn’t the most productive but another year with an increased role could bring Morrison one step closer to the NHL.
